Abstract

The Ti46(p,t)Ti44 reaction is used to populate the lowest T=2 level and decay products from the level are detected in coincidence. The branching ratio for isospin forbidden α decay to Ca40(g.s.) is ΓαΓ=(32±5)%; the directly measured γ-decay branching ratio is ΓγΓ=(54±11)%. The proton decay branching ratio is found to be less than 4%.

NUCLEAR REACTIONS Ti46(p,t), Ep=42 MeV. Measured charged particle and γ branching ratios from 9.338 MeV (0+, 2) level. Measured charged particle branching ratios from 9.298 MeV level.
