We added a rotational energy to our Thomas–Fermi nuclear model of W.D. Myers, W.J. Świątecki, Acta Phys. Pol. B27, 99 (1996) and W.D. Myers, W.J. Świątecki, Nucl. Phys. A601, 141 (1996) and present here a survey of fission barriers, deformation energies, \(\gamma \)-ray rotational cascades and moments of inertia. We explore a hypothesis according to which the moment of inertia of a deformed nucleus can be estimated by subtracting from the rigid-body value the moment of inertia of an inscribed sphere.

Theoretical studies on the properties of heavy and superheavy nuclei, performed in recent years, are shortly reviewed. Such properties as mass and half-lives are discussed. Even-even nuclei with proton number \(Z\)=82–120 and neutron number \(N\)=126–190 are considered. Prospects for synthesis of still heavier nuclei, than obtained up to now, are outlined.

Spontaneous fission of spherical superheavy nuclei is studied in a multi-dimensional deformation space. Potential energy, fission barrier and fission half-life are analyzed. The half-life is studied in a dynamical approach. Even-even isotopes of the element 114, with neutron number \(N\)=174–186, are considered. Alpha-decay half-lives are also given, for completeness.

The fission probability and the angular distribution of the fission fragments has been measured for the \(^{235}\)U\((d, pf)\) \(^{236}\)U reaction at an excitation energy slightly below the top of the fission barrier as a function of the excitation energy in \(^{236}\)U. A strong resonance was observed at \(E^*\)=5.45 MeV. The fine structure of the resonance was measured and interpreted as a hyperdeformed rotational band.

Novel methods were applied successfully to trap radioactive ions and atoms and to freeze out their nuclear spin polarization inside aggregates of helium atoms, “snowballs” in superfluid helium. Polarized beta-ray emitting \(^{12}\)B ions (\(T_{1/2}\)=20.4 ms) were introduced into superfluid helium and snowballs were created around the impurity ions. Beta rays were detected to locate snowballs and the beta-ray asymmetry was measured to obtain the nuclear polarization of decaying \(^{12}\)B. The comparison with the initial value of \(^{12}\)B polarization establishes that no relaxation in polarization was observed throughout lifetime of \(^{12}\)B. Most of the impinged high-energy ions are neutralized. While they may constitute background in the above measurements, the neutrals are themselves interesting in their behaviour. It has been found that there are two components that stay in a position after stopping and that move quite swiftly in superfluid helium. The strange behaviour of neutrals is discussed.

The reaction \(^{37}\)Cl+\(^{120}\)Sn at 187 MeV bombarding energy has been investigated in a coincidence experiment between charged particles and \(\gamma \)-rays at the GASP spectrometer. The population of the superdeformed (SD) band of \(^{152}\)Dy has been studied in the \(p4n\) and \(d3n\) channels. Alpha particle spectra in coincidence both with normal deformed (ND) and SD bands of \(^{150}\)Tb have been measured. A clear difference is observed between the two spectra, that in coincidence with the SD states being shifted to lower energies. This effect is understood in terms of different angular momentum regions from which the ND and SD states originate. The standard statistical model fails to describe the angular momentum dependence of the alpha particle energies. The use of statistical model in the region where the fission-evaporation competition is strongly affected by dynamical effects is discussed.

High-resolution measurements on \(\gamma \) rays from fission fragments have given a wealth of information on neutron-rich nuclei and on the mechanism of the fission process. In recent years important data have been obtained on the yrast and near-yrast structures of neutron-rich nuclei with up to ten more neutrons than the nearest stable isotope. This paper discusses the scope of measurements which can be made on prompt gamma rays from spontaneous fission fragments, the techniques used in the experiments and some results recently obtained.

We report studies of examples of reflection-asymmetric nuclei which are difficult to access using compound nucleus reactions. The most octupole deformed nuclei should be uranium isotopes with \(N \approx \) 132; preliminary measurements of these very fissile nuclei suggest that they are within reach of current spectroscopic techniques. The octupole radium isotopes with N > 132 and radon isotopes are not accessible by reactions employing stable targets and beams; we have shown that multinucleon transfer reactions can populate these nuclei with sufficient yield for their structure to be determined. We report high spin studies in \(^{218,220,222}\)Rn and \(^{222,224,226}\)Ra which reveal upbending effects in this mass region for the first time and show that the electric dipole moment is constant with spin.

Binding energies for nuclei with \(A \leq 70\) can be predicted by exploiting analog symmetry. This is accomplished by computing the Coulomb energy difference between mirror nuclei and adding the Coulomb shift to the experimental binding energy of the neutron-rich mirror. The location of the proton drip-line is investigated and candidates for the detection of the exotic decay mode known as di-proton emission are identified. The consequences of analog-symmetry breaking on the calibration of solar neutrino detectors are discussed.

A stochastic method for performing large-scale shell model calculations is presented, which utilizes the auxiliary field Monte Carlo technique and diagonalization method. This method overcomes the limitation of the conventional shell model diagonalization and can extremely widen the feasibility of shell model calculations with realistic interactions for spectroscopic study of nuclear structure.

The nucleus \(^{231}\)Pa lies outside the calculated region of stable octupole deformation. Investigating the \(K = 1/2^-\) g.s. band and transitions therein can serve to test calculations in the quasiparticle-plus-phonon model including small octupole correlations. To this end a \(^{231}\)Pa target was Coulomb-excited by 260 MeV \(^{58}\)Ni projectiles. For background reduction a new PIN- diode-mosaic particle detector was constructed to enable the readout of the 20 germanium detectors of NORDBALL in coincidence with the backscattered particles with good time resolution and position sensitivity. Doppler correction and \(\gamma \)-\(\gamma \)-coincidences help to clarify the structure of \(^{231}\)Pa.

In-beam Coulomb excitation of the K\(^\pi \) = 9\(^-\) isomer in \(^{180}\)Ta was studied with \(^{32}\)S and \(^{58}\)Ni beams. Excited levels in \(^{180}\)Ta were identified by comparison of results with a natural (0.01%) and an enriched (5.6%) target. The rotational band built on the 9\(^-\) isomer could be followed up to the 16\(^-\) level and the cascade-to-crossover branching ratios are consistent with a spin-independent value for (g\(_K\)-g\(_R\))/Q\(_0\).

One involves lifetime measurements on M1 bands in \(^{198,199}\)Pb to see if the predictions of the TAC model of Frauendorf for \(B\)(Ml) values of the “shears bands” hold experimentally. The other is a search for discrete linking transitions between the superdeformed and normal deformed bands in \(^{194}\)Pb in order to determine the spins, parity, and excitation energy of the superdeformed band.

The phenomenon of identical bands is studied by analyzing the distributions of fractional changes in the dynamical moments of inertia for pairs of bands in superdeformed (SD) nuclei. These distributions show that there exists a significant excess of identical bands in SD nuclei compared to normally-deformed nuclei at low spins. This is attributed to the weaker pairing correlations and the stabilizing role of intruder orbitals on the structures of SD bands. To go into further details, precise level lifetimes have been measured for various superdeformed bands in \(^{148,149}\)Gd and \(^{152}\)Dy with the Doppler-shift attenuation method. From the derived quadrupole moments, \(Q_0\), we find large differences in deformation between the yrast bands and some excited bands in the gadolinium isotopes. Moreover, two of the excited Gd bands and the \(^{152}\)Dy yrast band, which have identical moments of inertia, have similar \(Q_0\) moments, supporting the picture that alignment and deformation effects cancel in identical bands. Calculations performed with the cranking-Hartree-Fock model show that the charge moments calculated with respect to the doubly magic SD core \(^{152}\)Dy can be written as independent contributions from the individual orbitals.

A selected set of precise measurements of the mean kinetic energy of fission fragments has been used for testing nuclear dissipation. Calculations of the kinetic energy release on the descent from saddle to scission have been done with a dynamical model based on the classical Rayleigh– Lagrange equations of motion. Both alternative dissipation mechanisms, one-body dissipation and two-body viscosity have been tested. An increasing strength of the dissipation with increasing mass of a composite system has been observed. However this effect may partly result from a specific shape parametrization used in the dynamical model.

The aim of this work is to get more information about the population mechanism of superdeformed (SD) bands in the \(A \simeq 150\) mass region. Usually, SD bands were populated in heavy-ion induced fusion reactions and most of them have been seen in xn exit channels. With the new generation of gamma-ray arrays, we are able to see SD structures populated in charged particle channels. Four experiments have been performed at the Vivitron accelerator in Strasbourg using the EUROGAM II spectrometer to study these phenomena (especially in \(\alpha \)-particle channels).

The aim of this work is to get more informations about the decay-out of superdeformed bands. One of the best candidates in the mass \(A \simeq 150\) region for that kind of research is the nucleus \(^{151}\)Tb. From previous works, it has been established that the first excited band goes lower in frequency than the band SD(1) [2], and it is the only known case in that mass region. One way to investigate these different behaviours, is to perform measurements of the average entry spin. The nucleus \(^{151}\)Tb has been populated via the fusion-evaporation reaction \(^{130}\)Te(\(^{27}\)Al,6\(n\))\(^{151}\)Tb at a beam energy of 155 MeV. This experiment has been perfornied at the Vivitron facility accelerator in Strashourg using the Eurogam II spectrometer, consisting of 54 Germa nium detectors. It came out of this study, that the band SD(2) and band SD(3) feed the normal deformed well 9\(\hbar \) lower than the band SD(1). For the moment, it is not possible to explain the observed shell structure effects and to conclude about the statistical decay-out. The analysis is still under progress.

Excited states in \(^{116}\)Sn have been studied by using the DORIS Ge array combined with charged particle detectors. High-spin states were observed up to \(I \approx 20\hbar \) region. Spherical as well as regular, deformed level structures were found. The spherical states are interpreted to arise from pure neutron configurations, while the deformed, intruder bands are most likely to involve the proton 2\(p\) – 2\(h\) excitations across the \(Z\) = 50 shell gap.

High Spin states in \(^{94,95}\)Mo, \(^{94-96}\)Tc, \(^{96-98}\)Ru and \(^{97,98}\)Rh were populated via the \(^{65}\)Cu(\(^{36}\)S,\(xpyn\)) reactions at 142 MeV. Level schemes of these nuclei have been extended up to a spin of \(J \approx 20 \hbar \) and an excitation energy of \(E_x \approx \) 12–14 MeV. Information on the high spin structure for \(^{96}\)Tc and \(^{98}\)Rh has been obtained for the first time. Spherical shell model calculations have been performed and compared with the experimental excitation energies. The level structures of the \(N\) = 51, 52 isotones exhibit single-particle nature even at the highest spins and excitation energies. A fragmentation of intensity into several branches after breaking of the \(N\) = 50 core has been observed. There are indications for the onset of collectivity around neutron number \(N\) = 53 in this mass region. A sequence of E2 transitions, reminiscent of vibrational degree of freedom, were observed in \(^{98}\)Ru at spins just above the observed \(N\) = 50 core breaking. RDM lifetime measurements have been performed to ascertain the intrinsic structures of these level sequences.

The intensities of primary \(\gamma \)-ray transitions following thermal and average resonance neutron capture have been found to depend on the final-state \(K\) quantum number. The apparent \(K\)-hindrance effect is significantly stronger in the thermal than in the ARC case. After thermal neutron capture, the shapes of the transition probability distributions indicate that the \(K\)-allowed transitions are associated with a higher number of degrees of freedom than the \(K\)-forbidden ones.

The evolution of the giant dipole resonance in \(^{120}\)Sn and \(^{208}\)Pb nuclei at excitation energies in the range of 30–130 MeV was studied by comparing high energy \(\gamma \) ray measurements from the decay of the resonance at low angular momenta with theoretical model calculations. Both, a model of the adiabatic coupling of the GDR to the nuclear shape as well as a collisional model describe the increase of the width with temperature. However, while the collisional model is independent of angular momentum, the adiabatic model can describe the increase of the GDR width at high angular momenta.

A search for the \(\gamma \) decay of the Giant Dipole Resonance built on superdeformed nuclear configurations was made. The superdeformed states of the \(^{143}\)Eu nucleus were populated using the reaction \(^{110}\)Pd(\(^{37}\)Cl,4\(n\))\(^{143}\)Eu at a beam energy of 165 MeV. High energy \(\gamma \)-rays were detected in 8 large BaF\(_2\) scintillators in coincidence with discrete transitions measured with part of the NORDBALL array (17 HPGe detectors and a 2\(\pi \) multiplicity filter). Spectra of high-energy \(\gamma \)-rays gated by low-energy transitions from states fed by the superdeformed bands show an excess yield in the 7–10 MeV region with respect to those gated by transitions from states not populated by the superdeformed bands. Because the dipole oscillation along the superdeformed axis of the nucleus is expected to have a frequency corresponding to \(\approx \) 8 MeV (low energy component of the GDR strength function), the present result gives the first experimental indication of \(\gamma \)-ray emission of the GDR built on a superdeformed states.

Prompt \(\gamma \)-ray cascades in neutron-rich nuclei around doubly-magic \(^{132}\)Sn have been studied at Eurogam 2 array using a \(^{248}\)Cm fission source. Yrast states to above 5.5 MeV in the two- and three-proton \(N =\) 82 isotones \(^{134}\)Te and \(^{135}\)I are reported. They are interpreted in terms of valence proton and particle-hole core excitations with the help of shell model calculations employing empirical nucleon–nucleon interactions from both \(^{132}\)Sn and \(^{208}\)Pb regions. A serious inconsistency in the accepted masses of \(N =\) 82 isotones near \(^{132}\)Sn is discovered but not resolved.

This article discusses the properties of time evolution of wave packets in a few systems. Dynamics of wave packet motion for Rydberg atoms with the hierarchy of collapses and revivals is briefly reviewed. The main part of the paper focuses on the new mechanism of quantum recurrences in wave packet dynamics. This mechanism can occur in any physical system with strong enough spin–orbit interaction. We discuss here the spin–orbit pendulum effect that consists in different motions of subpackets with different spin fields and results in oscillations of a fraction of average angular momentum between spin and ordinary subspaces. The evolution of localized wave packets into toroidal objects and backwards (for other class of initial conditions) is also subject to discussion.

We have used the reactions \(^{48}\)Ca + \(^{176}\)Yb, \(^{154}\)Sm + \(^{176}\)Yb and \(^{154}\)Sm + \(^{208}\)Pb to study the feasibility of populating high spin states in neutron-rich nuclei by deep-inelastic reactions. Using Gammasphere, we observed gamma transitions from nuclei with several neutrons richer than the target. Yrast states with spin up to 20 were populated in these reactions. High spin states in \(^{175,177,178}\)Yb were observed for the first time. Back bending behavior in Yb nuclei was studied and compared with cranked shell model calculations. Yields of neutron rich nuclei and high spin states are higher in the Sm induced reactions, But larger Doppler broadening limits the observation of the high spin states.

Recent measurements of \(\gamma \) transitions in \(^{208}\)Pb provide much new and reliable information. Excited states of \(^{208}\)Pb are well described by one particle–one hole shell model wave functions. These wave functions have been determined for about 50 levels strictly from the experimental data, mainly spectroscopic factors and \(\gamma \) branching ratios. The matrix elements of the residual interaction are calculated from the wave functions by inverting the Schroedinger equation. The resulting residual interaction is presented.

The present contribution concentrates on the studies of shape evolution of very weakly deformed nuclei, in terms of a coexistence of spherical and deformed states near closed shells due to polarizing effects of the aligned particles on the originally spherical or slightly deformed core. Using the level schemes information, the different modes of nuclear behaviour are seen. The possibility of tracing the onset of collectivity when moving away from double magic structure is considered.

A new method is described to study nuclear fission of short-lived radioactive isotopes induced by electromagnetic excitations. Secondary beams of fissile nuclei were produced by fragmentation of \(^{238}\)U projectiles at 1 \(A\) GeV. After being separated and identified in the fragment separator of GSI they impinged on a secondary lead target. Nuclear-charge distributions and total kinetic energies of fission fragments produced in low-energy fission have been measured for a number of neutron-deficient uranium, protactinium, thorium, actinium and radium isotopes. First experimental results are presented.

4\(\pi \) charged products arrays allowed us to determine that, at incident energies 35–95 MeV/u, the fusion cross section is very small in nearly symmetric light and medium systems. Dissipative binary collisions accompanied by mid-rapidity (participant) emission was found to dominate at all impact parameters. The excitation energy of the reconstructed quasi-projectile was obtained via calorimetry and reaches high values. Their apparent temperatures were obtained from several double isotopic yield ratios and slopes of kinetic energy spectra. These data can be explained by a steady increase of the initial temperature with excitation energy without evidence for a liquid–gas phase transition.

The Level Mixing Spectroscopy (LEMS) method has proven to be a powerful method to determine the quadrupole moment of high spin isomers. There are some limitations on the use of the method which are due to the fact that a non cubic host providing an electric field gradient and a large superconducting magnet are needed. In this contribution we report on the use of cubic host materials as a first expansion of the applicability of the LEMS method towards a wider region on the nuclear chart. In two experiments we have shown that a defect-associated electric field gradient, induced by the nuclear reaction in a cubic host material, is reproducible and can be used to determine quadrupole moments. We also discuss how the use of magnetic host materials cancels the need for a superconducting magnet by taking advantage of the very strong, temperature dependent hyperfine fields near the Curie temperature.

Recent studies have shown examples of severe violations of the \(K\)-selection rule, raising questions about the usual understanding of the \(K\)-mixing process and the structure of the \(K\)-isomeric states. The LEMS technique enables us to measure the spectroscopic quadrupole moment of nuclei in high-\(K\) isomeric states, which allows to investigate the deformation of these isomers. As poor statistics is the main problem we face in these experiments, different improvements have been investigated to increase the sensitivity of the LEMS technique.

The Coulomb excitation of \(^{208}\)Pb projectiles has been studied at an energy of 640 \(A\) MeV. Cross sections for the excitation of the two-phonon giant dipole resonance were measured for different targets, and show clear evidence for a two-step electromagnetic excitation mechanism. The experimental cross sections exceed those calculated in the harmonic oscillator approximation by a factor of 1.33 \(\pm \) 0.16. The deduced 2\(\gamma \)-decay probability is consistent with the expectation in the harmonic limit. Finally, the excitation of the two-phonon giant dipole resonance in the deformed and fissile nucleus \(^{238}\)U is discussed.

For the statistical particle-evaporation model to be applicable to particle emission from dynamical time-evolving systems, the system should closely follow the quasistatic path, which represents a sequence of conditional equilibrium shapes. We show that quasifission paths predicted by the one-body dissipation dynamics satisfy this requirement all the way from the contact point to the scission point, excluding short time intervals spent near the contact point (when neck fills in) and during separation (when waist develops).

We study the corelation between “apparent” nuclear temperatures which can be measured in an experiment and “real” ones within the sequential statistical model. We extract temperature from slopes of kinetic energy spectra of light charged particles and from isotopic double ratios. We find that due to the chain of subsequent emissions the “apparent” temperature significantly differs from initial (average) temperature. We also find that the model of simple statistical evaporation works very well even for very high excitation energies.

Using the Level Mixing Resonance (LMR) interaction, which converts alignment into polarization, the nuclear spin alignment of \(^{12}\)B produced in two different fragmentation reactions at intermediate energy (respectively \(^{13}\)C onto a \(^{12}\)C target and \(^{22}\)Ne onto a \(^9\)Be target) was determined by measuring the \(\beta \)-anisotropy. The nuclear spin alignment of \(^{18}\)N fragments, produced in the \(^{22}\)Ne reaction was measured for different selections in the longitudinal fragment momentum distribution. In the same measurement the ratio of the quadrupole frequency to the magnetic moment \(\frac {\nu _Q}{\mu }\) of neutron rich \(^{18}\)N fragments implanted in Mg was found to be an order of magnitude larger compared to simple shell model calculations.

This includes spectroscopic studies of harmonic multi-phonon vibrations and investigations of the nuclear reaction mechanism in very heavy ion systems which are also used for the synthesis of superheavy elements.

Fragmentation products from a \(^{92}\)Mo beam on a natural nickel target have been used to study structural properties of the very neutron deficient nuclei around N\(\sim \)Z\(\sim \)40. We present the first observation of isomeric decays in the \(T_z=1\) systems \(^{74}_{36}\)Kr, \(^{80}_{39}\)Y and \(^{84}_{41}\)Nb. The isomer in \(^{74}\)Kr is interpreted as the hindered decay from an excited 0\(^+\) state, confirming the prediction of prolate/oblate shape coexistence in this nucleus. Transitions from states below an isomer in the N=Z nucleus \(^{86}_{43}\)Tc have also been tentatively identified, making this the heaviest N=Z system for which decays from excited states have been observed. In addition, we have obtained the first conclusive evidence for the existence of the \(T_z=-\frac {1}{2}\) isotopes \(^{77}_{39}\)Y, \(^{79}_{40}\)Zr and \(^{83}_{42}\)Mo. The data for \(^{77}_{39}\)Y is of particular interest in light of the reported instability in the lighter odd-Z, \(T_z=-\frac {1}{2}\) systems \(^{69}\)Br and \(^{73}\)Rb.

•abstract
In an effort to extend the scope of basic research centred around the new K-130 heavy-ion cyclotron at the Physics Department of the University of Jyväskylä a new experimental device called HENDES has been constructed. It is designed for correlation measurements of fission fragments, neutrons, and light charged particles produced in heavy ion induced reactions in the energy range of about 5 to 10 MeV/A. Collective dynamical parameters of nuclear matter are extracted from the data. New results were obtained from \(^{40}\)Ar + \(^{180}\)Hf reaction at \(E_{{\rm Ar}}\) = 190–250 MeV. Work is in progress to study the influence of neutron excess on the fusion–fission dynamics in different combinations of Ni beams on Sn targets.
