First evidence for shape coexistence in neutron-rich krypton isotopes* — •Kevin Moschner, Andrey Blazhev, and Rosa-Belle Gerst for the SEASTAR collaboration — Institut für Kernphysik, Universität zu Köln
Low lying excited states of the nuclei 94Kr and 96Kr were studied after nucleon removal reactions at intermediate beam energies at the RIKEN Radioactive Isotope Beam Factory. Previously unknown γ transitions could be observed for both nuclei. The established level schemes confirm the already observed smooth onset of collectivity which is contrary to the findings in the zirconium and strontium isotopic chains [1]. Additionally, the spectroscopic data show evidence for low-lying 02+ and 22+ states in 96Kr. This indication of shape coexistence in the neutron rich krypton isotopes is in agreement with IBM-2 calculations based on the self-consistent beyond-mean-field approach using the Gogny D1S interaction [2].
