High-spin structures of 124−131Te: Competition of proton- and neutron-pair breakings

The 124-131Te nuclei have been produced as fission fragments in two fusion reactions induced by heavy ions ( 12C + 238U at 90MeV bombarding energy and 18O + 208Pb at 85MeV) and studied with the Euroball array. Their high-spin level schemes have been extended up to 6MeV (even-A and 5MeV (odd-A excitation energies from the triple

angular correlations have been analyzed in order to assign spin and parity values to most of the observed states. Moreover the half-lives of isomeric states have been measured from the delayed coincidences between the fission-fragment detector SAPhIR and Euroball, as well as from the timing information of the Ge detectors. The behaviors of the yrast structures identified in the present work are first discussed in comparison with the general features known in the mass region, particularly the breakings of neutron pairs occupying the
