Laser-assisted decay spectroscopy for the ground states of ^{180, 182}Au

NUCLEAR MOMENTS ^180,182Au; measured hyperfine structure spectra, magnetic moments of the ground states using the ISOLTRAP Multi-Reflection Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometer and laser spectroscopy at ISOLDE, CERN; deduced J, π, Nilsson configurations of ground states. Comparison with theoretical magnetic moments, and with previous experimental results. Laser-ionized and mass-separated ^180,182Au isotopes formed in ²³⁸U(p, X), E=1.4 GeV spallation reaction.

RADIOACTIVITY ¹⁸⁰Au(α), (β⁺)[from ²³⁸U(p, X), E=1.4 GeV, followed by separation using RILIS, General purpose separator (GPS) at ISOLDE-CERN]; measured Eα, Iα, Eγ, Iγ, I(x rays), αγ- and γγ-coin, half-life of ¹⁸⁰Au decay. ¹⁷⁶Ir; deduced levels, J, π, α-branching ratio, total conversion coefficients, multipolarities, α-hindrance factors.
