The gamma-ray decay of excited states of the one-valence-proton nucleus 133Sb has been studied using cold-neutron induced fission of 235U and 241Pu targets, during the EXILL campaign at the ILL reactor in Grenoble. By using a highly efficient HPGe array, coincidences between gamma-rays prompt with the fission event and those delayed up to several tens of microseconds were investigated, allowing to observe, for the first time, high-spin excited states above the 16.6 micros isomer. Lifetimes analysis, performed by fast-timing techniques with LaBr3(Ce) scintillators, reveals a difference of almost two orders of magnitude in B(M1) strength for transitions between positive-parity medium-spin yrast states. The data are interpreted by a newly developed microscopic model which takes into account couplings between core excitations (both collective and non-collective) of the doubly magic nucleus 132Sn and the valence proton, using the Skyrme effective interaction in a consistent way. The results point to a fast change in the nature of particle-core excitations with increasing spin.

We investigate the soft dipole resonance in the proton-rich nucleus $^8_6$C$_2$, which is a collective dipole oscillation of four valence protons against the $α$ core,and discuss the isospin symmetry with the mirror nucleus $^8_2$He$_6$. We use the $α+N+N+N+N$ five-body cluster model and many-body resonances are obtained using the complex-scaling method. The $1^-$ resonance of $^8_6$C$_2$ is confirmed at the excitation energy of 13 MeV with a large decay width of 24 MeV, and its structure is similar to the soft dipole resonance in $^8_2$He$_6$, such as the configuration mixing and the spatial …
The $β^{-}$ decay of $^{81}$Zn to the neutron magic $N=50$ nucleus $^{81}$Ga, with only three valence protons with respect to $^{78}$Ni, was investigated. The study was performed at the ISOLDE facility at CERN by means of $γ$ spectroscopy. The $^{81}$Zn half-life was determined to be $T_{1/2}=290(4)$ ms while the $β$-delayed neutron emission probability was measured as $P_n=23(4)\%$. The analysis of the $β$-gated $γ$-ray singles and $γ$-$γ$ coincidences from the decay of $^{81}$Zn provides 47 new levels and 70 new transitions in $^{81}$Ga. The $β^-$$n$ decay of $^{81}$Zn was observed and a new…
Medium-spin excited states of the neutron-rich nucleus $^{87}$Br were observed and studied for the first time. They were populated in fission of $^{235}$U induced by the cold-neutron beam of the PF1B facility of the Institut Laue-Langevin, Grenoble. The measurement of $γ$ radiation following fission has been performed using the EXILL array of Ge detectors. The observed level scheme was compared with results of large valence space shell model calculations. The medium-spin level scheme consists of three band-like structures, which can be understood as bands built on the $πf_{5/2}$, $π(p_{3/2}+f_…
