PT Journal AU AGATA Collaboration (Modamio, Vea Gadea, A Algora, A Huyuk, T TI Lifetime measurements in neutron-rich Co-63,Co-65 isotopes using the AGATA demonstrator SO Physical Review C JI Phys. Rev. C PY 2013 BP 044326 EP 6pp VL 88 IS 4 DI 10.1103/PhysRevC.88.044326 LA English AB Lifetimes of the low-lying (11/2(-)) states in Co-63,Co-65 have been measured employing the recoil distance doppler shift method (RDDS) with the AGATA gamma-ray array and the PRISMA mass spectrometer. These nuclei were populated via a multinucleon transfer reaction by bombarding a U-238 target with a beam of Ni-64. The experimental B(E2) reduced transition probabilities for Co-63,Co-65 are well reproduced by large-scale shell-model calculations that predict a constant trend of the B(E2) values up to the N = 40 Co-67 isotope.
