Gamma-ray spectroscopy of 34Mg via RI beam fragmentation

A novel technique with a radioactive isotope beam has been employed for in-beam γ-ray spectroscopy of a very neutron-rich isotope 34Mg. The excited 34Mg were produced by the projectile fragmentation reaction induced by a radioactive 36Si beam at 50 MeV/nucleon on a 385 mg/cm 2 9Be target. Deexcitati...

Description
Summary:A novel technique with a radioactive isotope beam has been employed for in-beam γ-ray spectroscopy of a very neutron-rich isotope 34Mg. The excited 34Mg were produced by the projectile fragmentation reaction induced by a radioactive 36Si beam at 50 MeV/nucleon on a 385 mg/cm 2 9Be target. Deexcitation γ rays were detected in coincidence with the 34Mg fragments. The measured excitation energy, 660±10 keV, implies a large deformation of 34Mg.
