  1. Research group: R.Broda, B.Fornal, W.Królas, T.Pawłat, J.Wrzesiński H.Niewodniczanski Institut of Nuclear Physics PAN-KRAKOW Collaboration with the INFN LNL Legnaro Tandem and ALPI Linac GASP, PRISMA-CLARA spectrometer Spectroscopy of hard-to-reach nuclei with deep-inelastic heavy-ion reactions

  2. Neutron-rich nuclei produced in deep-inelastic processes • Beams of heavy-ions at energies above the Coulomb barrier • Transfer of nucleons – trend to equilize N/Z ratio • Population of Yrast states in final fragments

  3. Thick target experiments • Fragments stopped in the target, no isotopic identification • Aquisition of high statistics g-g coincidence data sets • Level structure from coincidence analysis, ID from cross-coincidences and/or known transitions GAMMASPHERE 4 R.

  7. 8 g-ray thick target measurements with DIC advantages limitations Gamma spectra very complicated (hundreds of sources) Gamma rays from the short lived states smeared out by the Doppler effect (emitted before a product is stopped) Difficulties of identifications without a starting point. Angular distribution of g rays almost isotropic and ~ limitations ~ advantages PRISMA CLARA GASP Gamma rays from all reaction products Gamma rays from the stopped nuclei – narrow lines – easy analysis ofg-g coincidences Detection of cross-coincidences – some potential for identification

  8. PRISMA spectrometer • A magnetic heavy ion spectrometer designed to fully identify (A, Z)fragments deflected at large angles • CLARA: an array of 24 Clover detectors 238U + 330 MeV 48Ca • Complementary sets of data: PRISMA – (A,Z) identification, fast g transitionsand GAMMASPHERE – g-g coincidence data

  11. Evolution of Nuclear Structure with the Increase of Neutron Richness • Changes in shell structure – rearrangements of orbitals • Vanishing of shell gaps, appearance of new „magic numbers” • Experimental evidence needed • Experimental challenge – nuclei not easily accessible

  12. Shell model description of neutron-rich Potassium isotopes • For Potassium (Z=19): a proton-hole, nearest shells are ps1/2, pd3/2and pd5/2 • For neutron-rich (N > 28): neutrons in np3/2, np1/2 and/or nf5/2 shells 48Ca double closed-shell configuration

  13. Evidence of a 7/2– isomer in 47K 7/2– isomer, T1/2 = 7 ns 1660 M2 3/2+ 1/2+ 1660 keV line not in prompt gamma spectrum, assigned as an M2 isomeric transition: 7/2– 3/2+

  16. PRISMA GAMMASPHERE First experimental identification of excited states in 48K • Identification of 48K gamma lines from PRISMA • Level scheme established from GAMMASPHERE coincidence data • New 6.5 ns isomer placed in 48K
