Study of the Pygmy Dipole Resonance in ¹²⁴Sn with AGATA

The γ decay of the pygmy dipole resonance of ¹²⁴Sn was measured with the AGATA demonstrator coupled to an array of 9 large volume LaBr₃:Ce scintillators. This resonance was populated by the inelastic scattering reaction ¹⁷O+¹²⁴Sn at 20 MeV/u. With AGATA, the γ decay up to the neutron separation energy was measured with high resolution. The angular distribution was measured both for the γ rays and the scattered ¹⁷O ions. The present results are presented in comparison with the previous findings for (γ, γ') and (α,α'γ)
