U. Boschwicke et al., SPECTROSCOPIC INVESTIGATIONS OF YB-179-DECAY INCLUDING A MS-ISOMER INLU-179, ZEITSCHRIFT FUR PHYSIK A-HADRONS AND NUCLEI, 345(2), 1993, pp. 171-174
The neutron-rich isotope 179Yb was produced by using the multinucleon
transfer reactions 11.6 MeV/u Xe-136 + Re and 11.4 MeV/u Au-197 + W Th
e isotope identification was achieved by combining mass-separation and
decay spectroscopy. A decay scheme was constructed including a new is
omeric state in Lu-179 with a half-life of 3.1(9) ms.
