Abstract
Electromagnetic transition strengths for decays between low-lying levels in 59Ni have been studied with the 56F(α, n) 59Ni reaction. Mean lifetimes of levels have been measured by the Doppler-shift attenuation method and the recoil distance method. Level spins, mixing ratios and branching ratios have been investigated with the method of particle-γ-ray angular correlations. The following lifetimes are reported (level energy in keV, lifetimes in ps): 340(120 ± 20), 465(29 ± 5), 878(0.62 ± 0.12), 1189(0.44 ± 0.07), 1302(0.18 ± 0.02), 1339(1.28 ± 0.46), 1680(0.42 ± 0.23), 1735(0.18 ± 0.04), 1948(0.20 ± 0.06). Electromagnetic transition strengths are extracted and compared with two recent shell model calculations.
