Many nuclear-level lifetimes of low-spin states in the rare-earth nucleus ¹⁶⁴Dy are still unknown. Therefore a (p,p’γ) experiment was performed at the combined detector setup SONIC@HORUS in Cologne. SONIC@HORUS consists of the γ-ray detector array HORUS equipped with 14 HPGe detectors and the particle detection array SONIC with up to 12 Si (PIPS) detectors (as singles or ΔE-E telescopes) [1]. At SONIC@HORUS the Doppler-shift attenuation method (DSAM) using the p-γ-coincidence technique is an established method to determine lifetimes of excited nuclear levels in the sub-picosecond range [2,3]. Using DSAM three lifetimes of nuclear-levels in ¹⁶⁴Dy were determined, two of them for the first time. Additionally, several branching ratios were extracted. In this contribution, the results of the lifetime measurement as well as the extracted branching ratios will be presented.
