Kulikov, I., Algora, A., Atanasov, D., Ascher, P., Blaum, K., Cakirli, R. B., et al. (2020). Masses of short-lived Sc-49, Sc-50, As-70, Br-73 and stable Hg-196 nuclides. Nucl. Phys. A, 1002, 121990–15pp.
Abstract: Mass measurements of Sc-49,Sc-50, As-70, Br-73 and Hg-196 nuclides produced at CERN's radioactive-ion beam facility ISOLDE are presented. The measurements were performed at the ISOLTRAP mass spectrometer by use of the multi-reflection time-of-flight and the Penning-trap mass spectrometry techniques. The new results agree well with previously known literature values. The mass accuracy for all cases has been improved.

Watanabe, H., Watanabe, Y. X., Hirayama, Y., Andreyev, A. N., Hashimoto, T., Kondev, F. G., et al. (2021). Beta decay of the axially asymmetric ground state of Re-192. Phys. Lett. B, 814, 136088–6pp.
Abstract: The beta decay of Re-192(75)117, which lies near the boundary between the regions of predicted prolate and oblate deformations, has been investigated using the KEK Isotope Separation System (KISS) in RIKEN Nishina Center. This is the first case in which a low-energy beam of rhenium isotope has been successfully extracted from an argon gas-stopping cell using a laser-ionization technique, following production via multi-nucleon transfer between heavy ions. The ground state of Re-192 has been assigned J(pi) = (0(-)) based on the observed beta feedings and deduced logf t values towards the 0(+) and 2(+) states in Os-192, which is known as a typical gamma-soft nucleus. The shape transition from axial symmetry to axial asymmetry in the Re isotopes is discussed from the viewpoint of single-particle structure using the nuclear Skyrme-Hartree-Fock model.
