  36. A bit deeper into the problem of intruder states: odd isotones N=49 • What we have learned ? Selection of results collectivity and evidence of intruder states in the 78Ni region

  37. A bit deeper into the problem of intruder states: the case of the odd-odd N=49 isotones • odd-odd nuclei: • detailed spectroscopy: stopped beam experiments • -decay very selective as allowed GT transitions e-e→o-o • practically exclusively 0+→1+ PhD A.

  38. The anomalous occurrence of low lying 1+ states in the odd-odd N=49 isotone 80Ga → historically launched the problematic of a possible vanishing of the N=50 shell effect By Winger et al. PRC 36 (1987) By Kratz et al. PRC 38 (1988) «  »  Waiting point nucleus at N=50 80Zn

  39. in a similar study Winger et al removed the parenthesis only at much higher energy Fig. taken from Kratzet al. PRC 38 (1988) Winger et al. PRC 36 (1987) RPA calculations, with significant quadrupole deformation (ε2=0.26) produce naturally an enormous amount of 1+ states (2QP states, Nilsson labeled), which was found satisfactory (!)

  40. In the observation of the beta decay of an even-even to an odd-odd nucleus : one cannot (in principle) “miss” the lowest 1+ states (only 0+→1+ beta transitions are allowed in n-rich nuclei) Q window note the huge increase in the number of states populated by beta decay between 82As and 80Ga -- is it real ? is there an important structure effect at play ?

  43. Neutron states Omnipresence of positive parity (intruder) states First hinted at from transfer reaction data [e.g. Detorie et al PRC18 (1978)] First systematics proposed by Hoff & Fogelberg NPA 368 (1981) emphasized in Meyer et al. PRC 25 (1982) since then everybody has been quiet on the subject 1p-2h states 2+ p1/2-1 or f5/2-1,p3/2-1 ? 78Zn(d,p) R. Orlandi et al. (REX-ISOLDE) 79-80Cu -decay M. Niikura (EURICA RIKEN)

  46. Unperturbed positions of the proton-neutron configurations in the odd-odd N=49 isotones intruder negative parity normal positive parity 82As is the first N=49 isotone for which low-spin negative parity (0- and 1-) states appear below the first 1+ state

  47. Include 2d5/2, 3s1/2, 2d3/2 on top of the fp-g valence space → very challenging for shell model, not yet available → what can be done ? → in a first approach, one can use a much less computationally demanding solution: core-particle coupling model → our job was facilitated and encouraged by : The description of odd N=49 nuclei down to 85Kr, including 2d5/2, 3s1/2, 2d3/2has already been done: Kitching Z. Phys. 258 (1973) ; Bhattacharya & Basu J. Phys. G 5 (1979) Hoffmann-Pinther & Adams [NPA229 (1974)] have already treated the odd-odd case within the Thankappan-True [Phys.
