  1. Shell evolution in the neutron rich N=20, N=28 and Z=28 regions from measurements of moments and spins Gerda Neyens, IKS, K.U. Leuven, Belgium Belgian Research Initiative on eXotic nuclei

  2. Layout • Introduction: * motivation • * methods to measure moments • Recent experiments at ISOL and fragmentation facilities • Highlights from Island of inversion • Highlights from the Cu chain, from N=28 to N=46 • Highlights from the Ga chain, from N=26 to N=50 • Highlights from the N=28 region below Ca: Cl isotopes • Conclusions

  3. Nuclear moments near magic shells  very sensitive to nuclear wave function ! Magnetic moment of odd-even, even-odd and odd-odd isotopes (m=g.I) near closed shells:  g-factor is determined by the orbital occupied by unpaired valence protons and/or neutrons - depends on spin and orbital g-factors for protons and neutrons (gsp, glp, gsn, gln) - depends on orbital momentum l and spinj of orbit occupied by unpaired nucleons  sign of g sensitive to the parity of the wave function !! - g-factor is not depending on the number of unpaired nucleons in an orbit: g(jn) = g(j) • Comparing experimental and calculated g-factors: • - confirm the proposed wave function • - in some cases: assign spin and/or parity • - test the shell model interaction and used model space 57Cu = 40Ca + 9p+8n 57Cu = 56Ni + p

  4. Nuclear moments near magic shells  very sensitive to nuclear wave function ! Quadrupole moments of odd-even, even-odd and odd-odd isotopes  Q-moment is determined by the spin j and the <r2> of the orbit occupied by unpaired valence protons - neutrons are not charged  but induce core polarization through p-n interaction - more sensitive to collectivity in the wave function • Comparing experimental and calculated Q-moments near closed shells: • - probing the proton-neutron interaction • - study the softness of a core as a function of N and/or Z • - study effects of core polarization • - study shape coexistence in nuclei • - confirm the proposed wave function • - test the shell model interaction 57Cu = 40Ca + 9p+8n 57Cu = 56Ni + p

  5. Methods to measure moments, radii, spin: lifetime dependence / production method dependence Lifetime of the isomeric excited state / isotope ground state 1 ps 1 ns 1 ms 1 ms 1s • Laser spectroscopy methods • magnetic moment, • quadrupole moment, • charge radius, • spin • g-TDPAD on aligned beams • g-factor • quadrupole moment • Transient field method • g-factor • b-NMR/NQR on polarized nuclei • Nuclear Magnetic/Quadrupole Resonance • g-factor • quadrupole moment Fragmentation Fusion-evaporation ISOL methods

  6. IN-SOURCE LASER SPECTROSCOPY at ISOL-facilities: magnetic moment (with sign) and charge radii E.g. at ISOLDE: Cu hyperfine structure (HFS): Proton beam Hot cavity Source with UCx target ionisation step 2P1/2 I=6 F2 2S1/2 I=1 F1 to ISOLDE detection set-ups 68Cu Pulsed Dye Lasers for two(three) -step resonant laser ionization • Measure magnetic moment • and isotope shift (charge radii) • of very exotic isotopes (rate > 1/s)  possible to separate nuclear isomeric state (6-) from its ground state (1+)  produce isomeric radioactive beams

  7. COLLINEAR LASER SPECTROSCOPY at ISOL-facilities: magnetic and quadrupole moments (with sign), radii, spin E.g. at ISOLDE: COLLAPS Cu hyperfine structure: ~Q,m 2P3/2 F’i ion deflector F2 2S1/2 ~m,I F1 LASER beam 68Cu, I=1- Photon counts Cu+ beam from ISOLDE • Measure spin, magnetic moment • quadrupole moment • and isotope shift (charge radii) • of exotic isotopes (rate > 104/s)

  8. 34Al g factor NMR-magnet b- detectors B RF-coil Implantation crystal Nuclear Magnetic/Quadrupole Resonance (b-NMR) at ISOL or fragmentation facility: g-factor or Q-moment (no sign) of ground startes Implant the polarized radioactive beam in a crystal (unequal population of m-levels) and apply static field B 2. Apply a radiofrequency field Brf, with frequency nrf If nrf = nL= g mNB/h population equalized (P=0) 3. Measure the asymmetry of emitted b-particles as function of the applied frequency m=2 m=1 I=2 Radioactive beam m=0 hnL m=-1 Zeeman splitting of nuclear quantum levels in static magnetic field B m=-2

TDPAD-magnet det 1 det 2 B J Zor g XLAB t=0 t t=0 Time Differential Perturbed Angular Distribution (TDPAD) at fragmentation facility: g-factor or Q-moment (no sign) of ms isomeric states Implant the aligned radioactive beam in a crystal 2. Perturbation of spin-orientation due to static field B or electric field gradient in the crystal 3. Measure the anisotropy of isomeric g-decay as a function of time since implantation: use ion-g correlation method Period of R(t)  Larmor or quadrupole frequency

  20. Ground state spin of 71,73,75Cu K.T. Flanagan et al., PRL 103, 142501 (2009) • g.s. spins measured with laser spectroscopy • spins assigned to isomeric levels in 75Cu • (based on measured lifetimes – Daugas, PhD Thesis) 73Cu, I=3/2 • Theory reproduces lowering of 5/2- correctly • theory overestimates the 1/2- energy • by ~300 keV in 73Cu and 75Cu !!! 75Cu, I=5/2 Model space: 56Ni core + f5/2 p3/2 p1/2 g9/2 Effective interaction: Lisetsky and Brown based on A.

Cocolios et al., PRL 103, 102501 (2009) Calculations: Model space (56Ni core) + f5/2 p3/2 p1/2g9/2 Effective Interactions: (JUN45, Honma et al., PRC80, 064323, 2009) * jj44b, Brown, private communication Conclusions: 69Cu magnetic moment very close to the reduced single particle value (2) used gs = 0.7 gsfree(56Ni core, no f7/2) (3) Towards N=28: both p and n f7/2 core excitations needed to reproduce core softness (GXPF1 gives perfect agreement)! (4) Beyond N=40: * 75Cu, 5/2 g-factor well reproduced (because nearly pure pf5/2 wave function) * 71,73Cu, 3/2 values largely overestimated  need more mixing with (pf5/22+)3/2

  23. Quadrupole moments of odd-Cu isotopes from N=32 to N=46 jj44b interaction: 56Ni core (N=Z=28) neutrons up to N=50  single particle value Qsp(pp3/2) is reached at the borders of the model space (N=28, N=50)  increase of Q-moments for 3/2 and 5/2 states towards mid-shell (normal behaviour between shells) • Q-moment of 69Cu very close to that of single particle value: • N=40 behaves as a ‘magic’ gap • reason: not ‘energy’ gap • parity change pf (neg) to g9/2(pos) • The model reproduces extremely well the Cu quadrupole moments around N=40. • Deviation in 61Cu significant ? Signature of breakdown of magicity of 56Ni core ? • 75Cu Q-moment in agreement with that for a 5/2- configuration !!

  26. Ground state parity and structure of 72Cu: Ip = 2- !!

B. Cheal et al., submitted PRL Spin changes in 73Ga (I=1/2) and 81Ga (I=5/2) !!  Need the magnetic and quadrupole moment to understand this structure change !

Gade, PRC 74(2006)034322) 44Cl is in between 43Cl and 45Cl 44Cl ground state presumably dominated by πs1/2 configurations N=22 N=24 N=26 N=28 • Hardly no experimental information available on 44Cl • knock-out reaction from 45Cl (PRC79, 2009) suggests 2- g.s. with significant contribution from np3/2 in the wave function • no excited states known. Normal 44Cl g.s. configuration = (pd3/2nf7/2-1) 2,3,4,5- Mixed with (pd3/2np3/2) 0,1,2,3- (ps1/2np3/2) 1,2- • pushes 2- down in energy • lowers the g-factor

  37. Conclusions (1) Knowing magnetic moments and quadrupole moments in a series of isotopes or isotones is extremely helpful to understand the structural changes in isotopes far from stability ! (2) Measurements of the g.s. spin is needed in these exotic regions, because theories are not sufficiently well developed to make predictions ! (3) Measured g.s. spin values are crucial for further assigning spins of excited levels. (4) Measuring the sign of the g-factor (magnetic moment) is crucial for interpretation of the mixed g.s. structures (less critical for isomeric states that are mostly of single particle nature)
