Abstract
Gamma and conversion-electron spectra following the127I(n, γ)128I reaction have been studied with bent-crystal, magnetic, Ge(Li) and Si(Li) spectrometers in the range 20-600 keV. Gamma-gamma prompt and delayed coincidences in the range 25-600 keV have been investigated with the use of two Ge(Li) detectors. The 128I level scheme involving 40 levels in the energy range 0-1000 keV has been constructed. Parity is determined for all the levels introduced. Unique spin values are assigned to 30 levels. The half-lives of the 133.611, 137.851 and 167.367 keV levels have been measured to be 12 ± 3, 845 ± 20 and 175 ± 15 ns, respectively. The 127I(d, p)128I reaction has been investigated with 22 MeV deuterons at an angle of 30°. The 129I(d, t)128I reaction has been studied with 15 MeV deuterons at an angle of 30°. The (n, γ) levels are found to match well with those from the (d, p), (d, t), (nres, γprimary) and (p, n) reactions. A comparison of the (n, γ) levels with the (d, p) and (d, t) levels enabled the identification of the πg 7 2νS 1 2, πg 7 2νd 3 2, πg 7 2νh 11 2, πd 5 2νS 1 2, πd 5 2νd 3 2 and πd 5 2νh 11 2 two-quasiparticle multiplets. Energy splittings of these pn configurations by residual interactions taken as a combination of short-range Wigner, singlet and tensor forces have been calculated.
