Gamma Decay Hindrance Factors Used in Systematic Configuration Assignments

Аннотация

A simple empirical relation is proposed to correlate the K-hindrance factor with the number of quasiparticles in the state configuration. The reduced hindrance $F_{\nu}$ = $({t_{1/2}^{\gamma}}/{t_{1/2}^{w}})^{1/\nu}$ has been empirically modified such that $\nu$= $\Delta K-L-(N_{\pi}-N_{\nu})$, instead of {\normalsize $\nu$} = $\Delta K-\mbox{L}$ where $N_{\nu}$ and {\normalsize $N_{\pi}$} are the numbers of neutron and proton quasiparticles in the state configuration. In systematics, the modified hindrance factor can be used to uniquely determine the $K$-isomer state configuration.
