Description

Low-energy excited states of 208Ra were investigated using the 182W(30Si, 4n) reaction at the Wright Nuclear Structure Laboratory of Yale University. Fusion evaporation recoils were selected using the gas-filled spectrometer SASSYER. Delayed γ rays, following isomeric decays, were detected at the focal plane of SASSYER with a small array of three clover Ge detectors. Transitions following a proposed Jπ=8+ isomer were observed, and the half-life was measured
