A four-channel VERSAmodule Eurocard (VME) with 14 bit, 80 MHz digitizers and powerful on-board processing has been designed, built, and used in tests of digital pulse processing techniques for… (More)
Neutron-rich, radioactive Zn isotopes were investigated at the Radioactive Ion Beam facility REX-ISOLDE (CERN) using low-energy Coulomb excitation. The energy of the 2(1)+ state in 78Zn could be… (More)
The K-hindrance to the γ-decay is studied in the warm rotating W nucleus, focusing on the weakening of the selection rules of the K quantum number with excitation energy. W was populated by the… (More)
Neutron-rich nuclei in the lead region, beyond N = 126, have been studied at the FRS-RISING setup at GSI, exploiting the fragmentation of a primary uranium beam. Two isomeric states have been… (More)
A multi-nucleon transfer reaction using an 850 MeV Xe beam incident on a Pt target was used to populate high-spin states in W, 14 nucleons from the target. A 4-quasiparticle isomer with t1/2 = 188±38… (More)
Isomeric ratios have been measured for high-spin states in 198,200,206,208 84Po, 208,209,210,211 85At, 210,211,212,213,214 86Rn, 208,211,212,213,214 87Fr, 210,211,212,214,215 88Ra, and 215 89Ac… (More)
