Description

Results from the first attempt to observe hyperdeformation in 146Gd by the 100Mo(51V, p4n) reaction are presented. The γ-ray spectra were recorded with Gammasphere. The Microball was used to select protons with an efficiency of 90%. A total of 2 x 109 proton selected triple events were obtained. The pxn channels comprised ∼25% of the total events. The proton gating decreased the background from competing xn, αxn and fission by a factor of 4
