E(level): From least-squares fit to the Eγ
Jπ(level): Proposed in 2023Wi05 based on comparions with mirror nucleus 62Zn and shell-model predictions
E(γ): From 24Mg(40Ca,2nγ), except as noted.

2023Wa10: measured mass excess of g.s. of 62Ge=-42289 keV 37 using Bρ-isochronous mass spectrometry at the Heavy Ion Research Facility (HRIFL), Lanzhou.
Note: 62As nuclide has not yet been identified, as according to literature survey, no experimental search for this nuclide has been carried out. Moreover, 62As is expected to be unbound towards one-proton emission as S(p)=-2080 keV 420 (syst,2021Wa16). Therefore, no data are available for 62As ε decay to 62Ge
1991Mo10: 62Ge first identified in fragmentation of 78Kr beam at 65 MeV/nucleon using A1200 spectrometer at NSCL, MSU. Isotopic identification by time-of-flight and energy loss methods
2002Lo13 (Also 2002Bl17): 62Ge observed in fragmentation of 78Kr beam at 73 MeV/nucleon using LISE3 spectrometer at GANIL facility. Isotopic identification by time-of-flight and energy loss methods. Measured isotopic half-life by decay timing of correlated β+ (ion implant) events and energy loss vs time-of-flight
2005St29 (also 2005St34): 62Ge observed in fragmentation of 78Kr beam at 140 MeV/nucleon with a 9Be target using A1900 spectrometer at NSCL, MSU. Measured cross section=4.8 nb 20
2007Bl09: 62Ge observed in fragmentation of 70Ge beam at 71.6 MeV/nucleon with a Ni target using LISE3 spectrometer at GANIL facility
2014Gr10: study of Gamow-Teller decay of t=1, Jπ=0+ 62Ge g.s. to n=Z 62Ga nucleus. The 62Ge source was formed in fragmentation of 750 MeV/nucleon 78Kr beam impinging a 9Be target, followed by Bρ-ΔE-Bρ and time-of-flight analysis by using FRS fragment separator and various scintillation and ionization detectors. The ions of 62Ga were implanted into a pack of six 1 mm thick double-sided silicon strip detectors (DSSSDs). Measured Eγ, Iγ, (particle)γ-coin, (fragment)β- and βγ-coin, half-life of 62Ge ground state.
2014Ro14: 62Ge isotope produced in the fragmentation of 70 MeV/nucleon 78Kr beam with Ni target. Fragments selected using the LISE3 separator at GANIL and identified by time-of-flight and energy loss. Measured half-life of 62Ge ground-state decay by (fragment)β, (fragment)γ correlations using four Si detectors (an energy loss ΔE detector, a degrade, DSSD and Si(Li)) for particles surrounded by four HPGe Clover detectors, three EXOGAM and one mini-clover Ge detector for γ rays.
2017Ku12: 62Ge isotope produced in the fragmentation of 79 MeV/nucleon 64Zn29+ beam with Ni target of 236 mg/cm2 thickness. Fragments were selected with the LISE3 separator at GANIL and identified by time-of-flight and energy loss using silicon ΔE detector and implanted into a double-sided silicon strip detector (DSSSD). The implanted ions and charged-particle decays were detected by the DSSSD, which was surrounded by four HPGe Clover detectors (three EXOGAM clovers and a smaller Euroball clover) for γ-ray detection. Half-life of 62Ge decay was measured by (62Ge implants)β time-correlated decay events. Total number of 62Ge implanted ions=6080
2021Or01: E=345 MeV/nucleon 78Kr was produced at RIBF-RIKEN facility Fragments were separated, selected and identified by the BigRIPS separator according to Bρ-ΔE-tof, and implanted into the WAS3ABi detection system, consisting of three DSSSDs at the exit of the ZeroDegree spectrometer. Measured half-life of decay of 62Ge by implant-decay correlations.
2023OrZZ: E=345 MeV/nucleon 78Kr was prepared using the BigRIPS separator at RIBF. Measured decay products, Eγ, Iγ. Deduced half-life.
2022Ku01: theory: structure: calculated levels, Jπ, and B(>) strengths using shell model with different effective interactions.
Q-value: Estimated uncertainty=300 for Q(β-) and S(n).
Q-value: Q(ε)=9698 37, Q(εp)=6771 40, Q(ε2p)=1478 37, S(2n)=30753 43, S(2p)=2693 37
Q-value: The Q values and particle-separation energies with uncertainties deduced by evaluators from the measured mass excesses of 62Ge=-42289 37 (2023Wa10), and relevant mass excesses from 2021Wa16. Two other values used were measured mass excess of 58Zn=-424248 36 (2023Wa10), and deduced mass excess of 60Ge=-27678 22 (2021Or01, IMME analysis).
