Abstract
The gamma-decay modes of the first two T = 3/2 levels in 19F at Ex = 7538 ± 2 and 7659 ± 2 keV have been studied at resonances in the 15N(α, γ)19F reaction at Eα = 4.465 and 4.618 MeV. Several weak decay branches have been seen: 7.54 → 5.11 MeV, 1.7 ± 0.4%; 7.54 → 1.35 MeV, 1.2 ± 0.4%; 7.66 → 4.55 MeV, 5.1 ± 0.3%; 7.66 → 5.11 MeV, 5.9 ± 0.5%. Comparison with (sd)3 shell model calculations indicate that the 4.55 and 5.11 MeV levels can be associated with the second and third calculated 5/2+ states. Using the DSAM, upper limits have been set on several lifetimes: 4377 ± 1 keV, < 22 fs; 4548 ± 2 keV, < 50 fs; 5105 ± 2 keV, < 30 fs.
