What is the unique experimental signature of p1/2? Spin-flip M1 transitions: direct observation of spin-orbit splitting 1p1/2 0.47(5) N2 ??? j< = l-1/2 0.68(10) N2 Unique signature!!! 1p (l=1) B(M1;j>j<) 1 N2 j> = l+1/2 89Y 87Rb 85Br 1p3/2 Relativistic Coulomb excitation reactions at high v/c large M1 matrix elements can significantly contribute to the total CE yield c(E2) (1/)2 c(M1) – independent Relativistic beam energies 50-80 % Unique at GSI Huge Doppler spread in the observed -ray spectrum need of capability to perform precise Doppler correction and reduce the Doppler broadening AGATA
Test case – 85Br • primary beam – 86Kr with intensity of about 109 pps • primary target – 2 g/cm29Be • secondary beam – 85Br, produced in fragmentation - 10 mb • secondary beam energies – 200 MeV/u and 450 MeV/u • beam intensity at S4 – 105 pps (10% FRS efficiency) • yield estimates - 10% efficiency of AGATA+PRESPEC set-up Assume the same strengths as in 87Kr: B(E2;5/2-3/2-)= 40 e2fm4B(M1;5/2-3/2-)=10-2N2 B(M1;1/2-3/2-)=0.58 N2 85Br Beam time – 100 h • Disentangle E2 and population from GDR: DSAM, two beam energies and multiplicity-total energy gates HECTOR
Summary Relativistic Coulomb M1 excitation of neutron-rich 85Br • physics goal - to fix the relative spacing between the p1/2 and p3/2 orbitals in the neutron rich nucleus 85Br • methodological goal - to show that the method of relativistic Coulomb excitation is a reliable experimental tool for quantitative study of M1 excitation strengths in exotic nuclei Requires RIB at relativistic energies – unique at GSI Requires capability for high resolution -ray spectrometry at v/c 50-80% - needs AGATA
