Empirical evidence for coriolis coupling of octupole states in 172Yb
Abstract
The nucleus 172Yb has been studied using the (3He, α) and (d, t) reactions on targets of 173Yb. Beams of 12 MeV deuterons and 24 MeV 3He particles were obtained from the McMaster FN Tandem Van de Graaff accelerator and the reaction products were analysed with a magnetic spectrograph. The (3He, α) reaction was particularly useful in identifying states formed by coupling the 72+ [633] transferred neutron to the 52− [512] target ground state. The …
