{sup 128}Xe Lifetime Measurement Using the Coulex-Plunger Technique in Inverse Kinematics

The lifetimes of the lowest collective yrast and non-yrast states in {sup 128}Xe were measured in a Coulomb excitation experiment using the recoil distance method (RDM) in inverse kinematics. Hereby, the Cologne plunger apparatus was employed together with the JUROGAM spectrometer. Excited states in...

Description
Summary:The lifetimes of the lowest collective yrast and non-yrast states in {sup 128}Xe were measured in a Coulomb excitation experiment using the recoil distance method (RDM) in inverse kinematics. Hereby, the Cologne plunger apparatus was employed together with the JUROGAM spectrometer. Excited states in {sup 128}Xe were populated using a {sup 128}Xe beam impinging on a {sup nat}Fe target with E({sup 128}Xe){approx_equal}525 MeV. Recoils were detected by means of an array of solar cells placed at forward angles. Recoil-gated {gamma}-spectra were measured at different plunger distances.
