Measurements of level densities and gamma ray strength functions

Description

A method has been developed where primary γ-rays after nuclear reactions with one ejectile only, can be projected out from the total γ-ray spectrum. These primary γ-ray spectra are shown to be, under certain conditions, a new source for determination of nuclear level densities and γ-ray strength functions. Results for 162Dy, 166Er and 172Yb are presented. The level density is used for determination of nuclear temperature and heat capacity. Fine structures in the level density and the temperature suggest changes in the pair correlation
