First combined DSAM and Coulex experiment at REX-ISOLDE - spectroscopic quadrupole moment of the 2₁⁺ state in neutron-rich ¹⁴⁰Ba * — •Christopher Bauer — Institut für Kernphysik, TU Darmstadt, Germany

The importance of precise lifetime information has recently been demonstrated in experiments at REX-ISOLDE and MINIBALL using the sensitivity of the Coulex yields to the nuclear reorientation effect in order to determine the sign of the spectroscopic quadrupole moment of the 2₁⁺ state in ⁷⁰Se [1,2]. Therefore we have utilized a new combined technique of lifetime measurement using the Doppler-Shift-Attenuation-Method (DSAM) and analysis of Coulex yields for the measurement of the spectroscopic quadrupole moment of the 2₁⁺ state in unstable neutron-rich ¹⁴⁰Ba. On the basis of the new lifetime of τ=12.5(6)ps it was possible to fix the sign of the spectroscopic quadrupole moment to be negative - equivalent to an oblate deformation. This is in agreement with recent Quasiparticle-phonon model calculations.
