Clay minerals from sediment samples obtained on Astoria Fan were analyzed by X-ray diffraction. Clay minerals are defined for the purpose of this study as crystalline phyllosilicates less than two microns in equivalent settling diameter. The clay minerals are subdivided into the five common families: montmorillonite, chlorite, vermiculite, illite, and...
¹⁸⁶Ir gamma transitions are studied via the reaction
Hf (¹⁴N, xn) Au at ¹⁴N beam energy 130 MeV. The beta decay
chain of Au is Au + Pt + Ir + Os. Singles and coincidence
data are from measurements by Ge gamma-ray detectors.
Conversion electrons are measured by Si(Li) detector....
An experiment has been conducted using a triple directional
correlation method developed by K. S. Krane, R. M. Steffen and R.
M. Wheeler (ref. 3). This method is presented and two normal detection geometries are introduced. The performance of the N1- and N2-
geometry was studied in four experiments using...
The static and dynamic electric quadrupole moments of even-even
and odd-A nuclei with 150<A<190 have been compiled and analyzed in a
systematic way, in order to extract the best set of intrinsic
quadrupole moments Q₀. The intrinsic quadrupole moments of the odd-A
nuclei have been used together with a compilation...
Measurements have been made of γ -γ directional correlations on the
following cascades, following the decay of ¹¹¹Pd and ¹⁰⁹Pd :
In ¹¹¹Ag : (454, 633, 762 - 391) keV (526, 797 -633) keV
(526, 797 -[633] -391) keV
In ¹⁰⁹Ag : (390, 413, 424, 551, 558 - 311) keV...
Relative lifetimes, and the closely related quadrupole moments (Q[subscript]i values), of the
six superdeformed (SD) bands in ¹⁹³Hg and the yrast SD band in ¹⁹²Hg were determined
by a Doppler-shift attenuation method measurement. The experiment was performed
using the Gammasphere array and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory's 88-inch
Cyclotron. The Q[subscript]i...
