Abstract

The nucleus Ge77 was studied through the Ge76(C13,C12)Ge77 reaction at a sub-Coulomb energy. The angular distributions of γ rays depopulating excited states in Ge77 were measured in order to constrain spin and parity assignments. Some of these assignments are of use in connection with neutrinoless double beta decay, where the population of states near the Fermi surface of Ge76 was recently explored using transfer reactions.
