Levels in ⁹⁵Tc

Abstract

<p>The structure of the nucleus ⁹⁵Tc was studied using the (a,2n) reaction on ⁹³Nb. Excitation functions and gamma-gamma coincidence experiments were used to establish the decay scheme. The angular distributions of the gamma rays involved in the decays were also measured. From these data, energies, spins, and parities for states in ⁹⁵Tc have been established. A positive parity band and a negative parity band have been specifically emphasized, and interpreted in terms of the rotation aligned model.</p>
