The lowest-lying mixed-symmetry 2⁺ state in the N=80 isotones — •T. Stetz¹, H. Mayr¹, N. Pietralla¹, G. Rainovski², V. Werner¹, and R. Zidarova¹ — ¹Technische Universität Darmstadt, Germany — ²Sofia University St. Kliment Ohridski, Bulgaria

Quadrupole collectivity near closed shells manifests in the known 2₁⁺ proton-neutron symmetric one quadrupole-phonon excitation of the valence shell and its isovector proton-neutron mixed-symmetric 2_ms,1⁺ counterpart. Their respective character is quantified by the F-spin quantum number. A direct influence of subshell structure on the properties of the 2_ms,1⁺ state has first been observed in ¹³⁸Ce by Rainovski et al. [1]. This lack of shell stabilization leads to a distribution of the M1 strength of the 2_ms,1⁺ configuration to the 2₁⁺ state over several excited 2⁺ states of ¹³⁸Ce. In contrast, the B(M1;2_i⁺ → 2₁⁺) strength in other N=80 isotones below the g_7/2 subshell closure is isolated in a single 2⁺ state [2,3]. A recent two neutron-transfer experiment to determine the B(M1;2₂⁺ → 2₁⁺) of ¹³²Te supports these observations. Furthermore, a single pronounced one-quadrupole phonon 2_ms,1⁺ state has been found in ¹⁴⁰Nd and ¹⁴²Sm through Coulomb-excitation experiments, showing a restoration of F-spin symmetry above ¹³⁸Ce [4,5].
