Lifetime of the I π = 4 – Intruder State in 34 P using LaBr 3 :Ce Fast Timing P.J.R. Mason

Motivation Breakdown of the N = 20 shell gap in neutron-rich nuclei linked to population of deformed intruder states, e.g. f 7/2 Neutron-rich Ne, Na, Mg isotopes observed to have well-deformed ground states. Region termed “island of inversion” s 1/2 1p 3/2 1p 1/2 1d 5/2 2s 1/2 1d 3/2 1f 7/2 2p 3/2 Spectroscopy of nuclei near island of inversion can help understand these intruder orbitals within the nuclear shell model

Motivation Recent study of 34 P identified low- lying I  =4 - state at E=2305 keV. Spin and parity assigned on basis of DCO and polarization measurements. I  =4 - → 2 + transition can proceed by M2 and/or E3. Aim of experiment is to measure precision lifetime for 2305 keV state and obtain B(M2) and B(E3) values. Previous studies limit half-life to 0.3 ns < t 1/2 < 2.5ns

Motivation 20 1d 5/2 2s 1/2 1d 3/2 1f 7/2  20 1d 5/2 2s 1/2 1d 3/2 1f 7/2  I  = 2 + [  2s 1/2 x ( 1d 3/2 ) -1 ]I  = 4 - [  2s 1/2 x 1f 7/2 ] Theoretical predictions suggest 2 + state based primarily on [  2s 1/2 x ( 1d 3/2 ) -1 ] configuration and 4 - state based primarily on [  2s 1/2 x 1f 7/2 ] configuration. Thus expect transition to go mainly via f 7/2 → d 3/2, M2 transition. Different admixtures in 2 + and 4 - states allow mixed M2/E3 transition

Results: T 1/2 = 2.0(2)ns 429 / / 1876 (~prompt)

Results With Ge gate T 1/2 ~ 1ns Without Ge gate PRELIMINARY

Summary Fast-timing with the Bucharest LaBr 3 -Ge array to obtain lifetime of 4 - intruder state in 34 P. Preliminary measurement suggests T 1/2 = 2.0(2)ns though further refinement to be done. Perform sdfp shell model calculations and extract predicted B(M2) and B(E3) values and mixing ratios. Compare with result Implications for shell-model physics in and around the island of inversion. Lifetimes in other nuclei in data set which fall within the time range suitable for LaBr 3 measurement?
