Abstract

The mean lives of the 0.84, 1.97, 2.31, 2.94 and 3.22 MeV levels were studied using the Doppler-shift attenuation method (DSAM). The 32S(d, p)33S reaction was used with deuteron energies ranging from 1.86 to 2.50 MeV to populate the excited levels of 33S. The directions of the recoiling nuclei were determined by detecting γ-rays in coincidence with protons. Mean lives of τm = 0.9−0.4+0.5,0.15 ± 0.03, 0.14 ± 0.04, > 1.4 and 0.04−0.01+0.02 ps were found for the levels at Ex = 0.84, 1.97, 2.31, 2.94 and 3.22 MeV, respectively. Where applicable, the results are compared to predictions of the strong-coupling rotational model.
