Enhanced quadrupole and octupole strength in doubly-magic 132Sn — D. Rosiak, •M. Seidlitz, and P. Reiter for the IS551 Miniball and HIE-ISOLDE collaboration — Institut für Kernphysik, Universität zu Köln
The first 2+ and 3− states of the doubly-magic nucleus 132Sn were populated via safe Coulomb excitation at HIE-ISOLDE, CERN, employing the highly-efficient MINIBALL array. 132Sn ions with a beam energy of 5.49 MeV/nucleon were impinged on a 206Pb target. De-exciting γ rays from the low-lying excited states of the target and the projectile were recorded in coincidence with scattered particles. Reduced E1, E2, and E3 transition strengths were determined.
A locally enhanced B(E2; 0g.s.+ → 21+) strength at doubly-magic 132Sn is found and confronted with the microscopic description of the structure of the respective states within different theoretical approaches. The results provide crucial information on cross-shell configurations which were determined for the first time within state-of-the-art shell-model (LSSM, MCSM) and mean-field calculations (RPA). The presented results of experiment and theory can be considered to be the first direct verification of the sphericity and double-magicity of 132Sn.
