PT Journal AU Napiralla, Pea Domingo-Pardo, C TI Benchmarking the PreSPEC@GSI experiment for Coulex-multipolarimetry on the pi(p3/2) -> pi(p1/2) spin-flip transition in 85Br SO European Physical Journal A JI Eur. Phys. J. A PY 2020 BP 147 - 10pp VL 56 IS 5 DI 10.1140/epja/s10050-020-00148-2 LA English AB A first performance test of the Coulomb excitation multipolarimetry (Coulex-multipolarimetry) method is presented. It is based on a 85Br pp3/ 2. pp1/ 2 spinflip experiment performed as part of the PreSPEC-AGATA campaign at the GSI Helmholtzzentrum fur Schwerionen-forschung (GSI). Via determination of background levels around the expected 85Br excitations as well as measured 197Au excitations, an upper limit for the M1 transition strength of the 1/2- 1. 3/2- g.s. transition in 85Br and a lower beam time limit for upcoming experimental campaigns utilizing Coulex-multipolarimetry have been inferred. The impact of the use of AGATA in its anticipated 1p configuration on these estimates is deduced via Geant4 simulations. ER
