Abstract
New neutron-deficient isotopes, Rn-197, Rn-197m, and Fr-200 have been produced and identified on the basis of genetic correlations in the Er -166(Ar-36,5n)Rn-197 (E(lab) = 186, 200 MeV), and Tm-169(Ar-36,5n)Fr-2 00 (E(lab) = 186 MeV) reactions. The evaporation residues were separat ed from the beam by using a gas-filled recoil separator and implanted onto a position-sensitive solid-state detector. The alpha-decay energi es (half-lives) of Rn-197, Rn-197m and Fr-200 have been determined to be 7261+/-30 keV (51(-15)(+35) ms), 7370+/-30 keV (18(-5)(+9) ms), and 7500+/-30 keV, (570(-140)(+270) ms), respectively.
