The region of the nuclear chart around the neutron number N=90 is an example for a rapid change of structure
as a function of nucleon number, i.e. shape-phase transition from spherical to quadrupole-deformed nuclei. Several observables, e.g. ρ2(E0;0gs+→02+)
are promising signatures for a quantum phase transition. The aim of the experiment was to determine the mean lifetime of the first-excited 0+
state of 150Gd and other lifetimes in the ps - ns range.
Excited states of 150Gd were populated using the 147Sm(α,n)150Gd fusion-evaporation reaction.
The ions were produced at the IFIN-HH in Bucharest, Magurele, and accelerated with the 9 MV FN-Tandem accelerator to a beam energy of 17.5 MeV. De-excitation γ
rays were detected with the RoSphere detector array in a configuration with 14 HPGe detectors and 11 LaBr3:Ce detectors for fast-timing applications.
