Use of the DIAMANT ancillary detector in studying extreme nuclear shapes at large angular momenta C.E.N.B.G. (Bordeaux) and ATOMKI (Debrecen)(2000-present)
DIAMANT in search for hyperdeformation DIAMANT has been used in EUROBALL experiments aiming at, e.g., the identification of rotational structures characteristic for hyperdeformed (HD) shapes in nuclei 168-172Hf and 126Ba.Hotest subject of present-day gamma-spectroscopy! Which of these is more favorable? 1) 126Ba is predicted to be the best candidate for having stable HD structures: Theoretical predictions (macroscopic calculations by J. Dudek), indicate that the energy minimum (dark blue regions) of the 126Ba nucleus at deformations (b2,g) corresponding to hyperdeformed shapes remains stable upto very high spins (I). At a critical spin of I > 74 ħ the nucleus becomes unstable against fission.
