Abstract

Available experimental information on the static electric quadrupole moments Q₂₊ of the 2⁺ first excited states of even-mass nuclei in the 2s1d shell is tabulated and critically reviewed, and “adopted values” are presented. The results reveal a well defined pattern for the variation of Q_2⁺ through the shell. Predictions of Q_2⁺ made from various nuclear models are tabulated and compared with experiment. For each nucleus the qua ty and quality of the existing data for Q_2⁺, together with the current theoretical significance of the result, are used as criteria to determi whether new experimental work is desirable.

Nuclear Data Sheets for A=24
2022, Nuclear Data Sheets
Evaluated spectroscopic data and level schemes from radioactive decay and nuclear reaction studies are presented for ²⁴N, ²⁴O, ²⁴F, ²⁴Ne, ²⁴Na, ²⁴Mg, ²⁴Al, and ²⁴Si. This evaluation for A=24 supersedes the earlier one by R. B. Firestone (2007Fi14).
Highlights of this evaluation are the following:
In ²⁴O, the 7.4- and 7.65-MeV groups reported in ¹H(²⁴O,p′) (2012Ts03) and ⁹Be(²⁶F,nX) (2011Ho05), respectively, are considered as separate states in this evaluation, since the former one was observed to decay by only one neutron emission to ²³O, while the latter one by two sequential neutrons to ²²O. Based on assigned configurations, the 7.4- and 7.6-MeV groups are tentatively assigned negative and positive parities, respectively. Additional study would be useful to determine if these states are same or different.
In ²⁴Na, 2014Fi01 (n,γ) proposed J^π=(0,1,2)⁻ for 4048.8 keV level based on weaker population from the capture state (J^π=1⁺,2⁺) and mentioned to reexamine the J^π=0⁺ assignment, suggested in earlier evaluations (1990En08, 2007Fi02).
This evaluation includes the first observation of E0 transition, strength ρ²(E0)=0.380 70, for the 6432 keV transition from 0⁺ state at 6432 to 0⁺ g.s. in ²⁴Mg reported in 2020Do10. Authors proposed the first-excited 0⁺ state of ²⁴Mg to be superdeformed.
In ²⁴Al, the excited level energies deduced from (³He,t) measurements reported by different research groups vary significantly and it was not clear if some of those levels were same or different. Additional measurements are needed.
Reorientation-effect measurement of the first 2<sup>+</sup> state in <sup>12</sup>C: Confirmation of oblate deformation
2018, Physics Letters, Section B: Nuclear, Elementary Particle and High-Energy Physics
A Coulomb-excitation reorientation-effect measurement using the TIGRESS γ−ray spectrometer at the TRIUMF/ISAC II facility has permitted the determination of the $〈 2_{1}^{+} ‖ \hat{E 2} ‖ 2_{1}^{+} 〉$ diagonal matrix element in ¹²C from particle−γ coincidence data and state-of-the-art no-core shell model calculations of the nuclear polarizability. The nuclear polarizability for the ground and first-excited (2 $_{1}^{+}$ ) states in ¹²C have been calculated using chiral NN N⁴LO500 and NN+3NF350 interactions, which show convergence and agreement with photo-absorption cross-section data. Predictions show a change in the nuclear polarizability with a substantial increase between the ground state and first excited 2 $_{1}^{+}$ state at 4.439 MeV. The polarizability of the 2 $_{1}^{+}$ state is introduced into the current and previous Coulomb-excitation reorientation-effect analyses of ¹²C. Spectroscopic quadrupole moments of $Q_{S} (2_{1}^{+}) = + 0.053 (44)$ eb and $Q_{S} (2_{1}^{+}) = + 0.08 (3)$ eb are determined, respectively, yielding a weighted average of $Q_{S} (2_{1}^{+}) = + 0.071 (25)$ eb, in agreement with recent ab initio calculations. The present measurement confirms that the 2 $_{1}^{+}$ state of ¹²C is oblate and emphasizes the important role played by the nuclear polarizability in Coulomb-excitation studies of light nuclei.

Nuclear Data Sheets for A = 34
2012, Nuclear Data Sheets
Nuclear spectroscopic information for experimentally investigated nuclides of mass 34 (Ne, Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Cl, Ar, K, Ca) has been evaluated. The principal sources of the Adopted Levels presented for nuclides close to the stability line are Endtʼs evaluations (1990En08, 1978En02). The data sets for reactions and decays, including all available gamma–ray data, are based mostly on the original literature. There are no data available for the excited states in ³⁴Ne and ³⁴Na. The existence of the ³⁴K and ³⁴Ca nuclides has been searched and reported in a secondary publication but no evidence was found for their detection. Both nuclides are possible candidates for one or two–proton emission. Only upper limits of half–lives have been proposed based on expected cross sections. Decay schemes for the β decays of ³⁴Ne, ³⁴Na, ³⁴Mg, and ³⁴Si are not known. Very little information is available for β–delayed neutron decays of ³⁵Na, ³⁵Mg and ³⁵Si which lead to population of levels in A = 34 nuclides. Neutron–rich nuclides in this mass region are relevant to “island of inversion”.
Nuclear Data Sheets for A = 32
2011, Nuclear Data Sheets
Nuclear spectroscopic information for experimentally investigated nuclides of mass 32 (Ne,Na,Mg,Al,Si, P,S,Cl,Ar) has been evaluated. The principal sources of the Adopted Levels presented for nuclides close to the stability line are Endtʼs evaluations (1990En08,1978En02). The data sets for reactions and decays, including all available gamma-ray data, are based mostly on the original literature. Except for the half-life of ³²Ne decay, no other details about its decay characteristics are available. Structure data for ³²Ne and ³²Na are limited to only one excited state in each. The ³²Mg nuclide is of central and prime relevance in the ‘island of inversion’ at or near N=20 semi-closed shell. The lifetime of only one excited state in ³²Mg is known. The spin-parity assignments of several levels in this nucleus are not quite firm. The structure of ³²Ar is limited to only one known state at low energy and two resonances in the giant-dipole excitation region. The ³²P, ³²S and ³²Cl remain the most extensively studied nuclei through various reaction channels.
Nuclear Data Sheets for A = 30
2010, Nuclear Data Sheets
Evaluated spectroscopic data and level schemes from radioactive decay and nuclear reaction studies are presented for ³⁰F, ³⁰Ne, ³⁰Na, ³⁰Mg, ³⁰Al, ³⁰Si, ³⁰P, ³⁰S, and ³⁰Cl. This evaluation for A=30 supersedes the previous evaluation 1998En04. However, some additional information for these nuclides can be found in earlier evaluations 1990En08 and 1978En02.
Highlights of this publication are the following:
The latest studies (2010StZZ, 2010De26) by fusion evaporation reaction of ¹⁴C and ¹⁸O using GAMMASPHERE array, consisted of 101 Compton-suppressed HPGe detectors, provided new data for ³⁰Al, ³⁰Si, and ³⁰Mg nuclides and extended the level scheme to higher spin states.
2010Se07 reported a new level at 4814(3) keV for ³⁰S nuclide studied by the ³²S(p,t) reaction. It did not observe the 5168(6) keV level that was reported earlier as a possible doublet by 2007Ba69. In the absence of further experiment, 2010Se07 considers the level as one of the doublets.
