Lifetime Measurements Of Low-Spin Negative-Parity Levels In 160Gd, S. R. Lesher, C. Casarella, L. M. Robledo, Benjamin P. Crider, R. Ikeyama, I. R. Marsh, Marcus T. Mcellistrem, Erin E. Peters, Francisco M. Prados-Estévez, M. K. Smith, Z. R. Tully, J. R. Vanhoy, Steven W. Yates Jun 2017

160Gd(n,n′γ) experiments were performed with accelerator-produced monoenergetic neutrons. Excitation functions at neutron energies from 1.5 to 2.8 MeV aided in the placement of γ rays in the level scheme and angular distributions at three neutron energies resulted in the determination of 28 excited-level lifetimes or limits in 160Gd, including the lifetimes of several negative-parity levels attributed to octupole vibrations.


Nuclear Structure Of 76Ge From Inelastic Neutron Scattering Measurements And Shell Model Calculations, Sharmistha Mukhopadhyay, Benjamin P. Crider, B. A. Brown, S. F. Ashley, Anagha Chakraborty, A. Kumar, Marcus T. Mcellistrem, Erin E. Peters, Francisco M. Prados-Estévez, Steven W. Yates Jan 2017

The low-lying, low-spin levels of 76Ge were studied with the (n,n′γ) reaction. Gamma-ray excitation function measurements were performed at incident neutron energies from 1.6 to 3.7 MeV, and γ-ray angular distributions were measured at neutron energies of 3.0 and 3.5 MeV. From these measurements, level spins, level lifetimes, γ-ray intensities, and multipole mixing ratios were determined. No evidence for a number of previously placed levels was found. Below 3.3 MeV, many new levels were identified, and the level scheme was re-evaluated. The B(E2) values support low-lying band structure. The 2 …

We report on the measurement of J/ψ production in the dielectron channel at midrapidity (|y| < 1) in p + p and d + Au collisions at √sNN = 200 GeV from the STAR experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. The transverse momentum pTspectra in p + p for pT < 4 GeV/c and d + Au collisions for pT < 3 GeV/c are presented. These measurements extend the STAR coverage for J/ψ production in p + p collisions to low pT. The ⟨p2T⟩ from the measured J/ψ invariant …
