Linear Polarization Measurements for High-Spin States in 146Gd

A {\gamma}-ray linear polarization measurement has been performed to directly determine the parities for the levels in 146Gd nucleus. High-spin states in this nucleus were populated in a reaction 115In + 34S at 140 MeV incident energy. Linearly polarized {\gamma} - rays emitted from oriented states were measured using a... Show more
