Revised lifetime of the 11/2- state in 45Sc via coulomb excitation

Abstract

A Coulomb-excitation measurement to study low-energy electromagnetic properties of 45Sc has been performed at the IUAC facility in New Delhi, India using a 70 MeV 32S projectile from the 15UD tandem accelerator. The preliminary value of the reduced transition probability B(E2; 11/2- → 7/2-) and the resulting lifetime for the 11/2- state at 1237 keV were determined using the GOSIA code. © 2020 Jagellonian University.
