Lifetime measurements in ¹³⁸Nd

NUCLEAR REACTIONS ¹²³Sb(¹⁹F, 4n), E=68 MeV; measured Eγ, Iγ, γγ-coin, half-lives of excited levels by recoil-distance Doppler shift technique using the ROSPHERE array at IFIN-HH, Bucharest. ¹³⁸Nd; deduced levels, J, π, B(E1), B(E2), configurations; calculated Potential energy surface (PES) for the ground-state. Comparison with large-scale shell model, and constrained Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov calculations with the Gogny D1S interaction. Discussed onset of collectivity in Nd isotopes below the N=82 shell closure from B(E2) systematics in ^{132,134,136,138,140}Nd, ¹³⁶Ce, ^140,142Sm.
