Abstract

The recoil distance method has been used to measure the mean lifetimes of the 788 keV, 1164 keV, 2519 keV and 2810 keV levels in ³⁶Cl and of the 4178 keV and 5171 keV levels in ³⁶Ar. The measured lifetimes are 30+or-1 ps, 7.1+or-0.5 ps, 2.36+or-0.16 ns, 9.0+or-0.6 ps, less than 8 ps and 127+or-5 ps respectively. The data support a correspondence between the 2519 keV and 2810 keV levels of ³⁶Cl with 5^- and 4^- states given by the shell model calculations of Erne.
