Description

Excited structures in Ce146 were populated in β decay of the high-spin state in the neutron-rich nucleus La146. The beam was produced by the Californium Rare Isotope Breeder Upgrade (CARIBU) facility at Argonne National Laboratory, reaccelerated by the ATLAS accelerator, and implanted on a moving-tape system in the middle of the GAMMASPHERE array. The decay scheme of the high-spin, β-decaying state in La146 was revised with respect to previous studies and evaluated nuclear data. The structure of La146 is discussed in the framework of the deformed Nilsson model and systematics of known quasiparticle structures in the region.
