Synergy of decay spectroscopy and mass spectrometry for the study of exotic nuclides

Stanja, Juliane 04 July 2013 (has links) (PDF)
With only two ingredients, atomic nuclei exhibit a rich structure depending on the ordering of the different proton- and neutron-occupied states. This ordering can give rise to excited states with exceptionally long half-lives, also known as isomers, especially near shell closures. On-line mass spectrometry can often be compromised by the existence of such states that may even be produced in higher proportion than the ground state. This thesis presents the first results obtained from a nuclear spectroscopy setup coupled with the high-resolution Penning-trap mass spectrometer ISOLTRAP, at CERN’s radioactive ion beam facility ISOLDE. The isomerism in the neutron-deficient thallium isotopes was investigated. The data on 184,190,193−195 Tl allow an improvement of existing mass values as well as a mass-spin-state assignment in 190,193,194 Tl. Due to the presence of the ground and isomeric state for 194 Tl the excitation energy of the latter was determined for the first time experimentally. Systematic trends in the vicinity of the Z = 82 shell closure have been discussed.
