Beschreibung

Neutron-deficient nuclei around mid-shell at N104 in the lead region provide many examples of shape coexistence and shape isomers. In order to study shape coexistence in this region, prompt and delayed γ-ray spectroscopy of the 187Pb, 183Hg and 188Bi isotopes produced in the reaction 50Cr+142Nd192Po has been performed at the Argonne Gas-Filled Analyzer.
In 187Pb, a new 5.15(15)-μs isomeric state at 308 keV above the spherical 3/2 ground state was identified. A strongly-coupled band is observed on top of this isomer, which is nearly identical to the one built on the prolate 7/2[514] Nilsson state in the isotone 185Hg. Based on this similarity and on the result of the potential-energy surface calculations, the new isomer in 187Pb was proposed to be prolate with Jπ = 7/2 and classified as a shape isomer. The retarded character of the 308-keV (7/2)3/2gs transition with a deduced B(E2) = 5.6(2) × 104 W.u. can be well explained by the significant difference between the prolate parent and spherical daughter configurations, leading to the shape isomerism.
In 183Hg, the decay of the nearly spherical 13/2+ isomeric state was first observed following the α decay of the 13/2+ isomer in 187Pb. By the α − γ correlation measurement, the half-life of this isomer was measured to be T1/2 = 290(30) μs. This isomer was proposed to deexcite by retarded M2 transition, which can be explained by the notable shape change between the initial and the final states.
Recently, a strong shape staggering was found in the charge radii of 187,188,189Bi. To further characterize this phenomenon in 188Bi, its in-beam and decay spectroscopy was studied in the same experiment. A new 0.25(5)-μs isomeric state decaying via a 243-keV transition to the (10) 188mBi was identified.
