Gyromagnetic ratios of excited states and nuclear structure near 132Sn

Abstract

Several g-factor measurements have been performed recently on nuclei near the neutron-rich, double-magic nucleus 132Sn. The focus here is on 134Te, the N = 82 isotone which has two protons added to 132Sn. The electromagnetic properties of 134Te are examined. Comparisons are made with other nuclei that have two protons outside a double-magic core. The extent to which 132Sn is an inert core is discussed based on these comparisons. The electromagnetic properties of the N = 82 isotones from 132Sn to 146Gd are also discussed. Show more
