Nuclear Energy Levels Excited by Fast Neutrons
Fast-neutron inelastic scattering has been studied in a number of elements by observation of the deexcitation gamma rays with a single-crystal NaI(Tl) spectrometer. Neutrons of energy 4.4 plus or minus 0.1 Mev were used to bombard isotopically enriched scatterers of Ti, Cr, Ni, Zn, Ge, and W, and no...

Zusammenfassung: | Fast-neutron inelastic scattering has been studied in a number of elements by observation of the deexcitation gamma rays with a single-crystal NaI(Tl) spectrometer. Neutrons of energy 4.4 plus or minus 0.1 Mev were used to bombard isotopically enriched scatterers of Ti, Cr, Ni, Zn, Ge, and W, and normal scatterers of Cl, Sr, Nb, Nd, Sm, and Gd. The low-lying levels in Ti/sup 47/, I, and W are studied using neutron energies between 0.50 Mev and 1.45 Mev. Energies and relative yields of the gamma rays are given, and their assignment to various excited states is discussed. Previ-ously unknown states were found in Ti/ sup 48/, Cr/sup 50/, Zn/sup 64/, Zn/sup 66 and Ge/sup 74/. (auth) |
