Competition between the neutron-proton pair break-ups delineating the level structure of 202Po

High-spin spectroscopic study of $^{202}$Po ($Z$ = 84, $N$ = 118) has been carried out using the $^{195}$Pt($^{12}$C, 5n)$^{202}$Po fusion-evaporation reaction. An extended level scheme has been proposed up to an excitation energy of $E_x\approx$ 8 MeV and angular momentum of 27$\hbar$, with the addition of 57 newly observed $\gamma$-ray transitions, along with the revisions in the placement of 8 already known transitions and the multipolarities of 4 of these transitions. The energy of the unobserved 8$^+ \rightarrow 6^+$ transition has been proposed to be 9.0(5) keV, which resolves the uncertainty in the excitation energy of the levels above the 6$^{+}$ state. Three new sequences of $M1$ transitions have also been identified in the high excitation energy regime and included in the proposed level scheme. The large-scale shell model calculations for $Z>82$ and $N<126$ valence space have been carried out using PBPOP interaction which explained the overall level scheme for both the positive and negative parity states. The calculations successfully reproduced the purity of the proton $\pi h_{9/2}$ dominated $8^+$ isomeric state, and also explained the missing $E2$ decay of the ${12}^+$ isomeric state in terms of changing nucleonic configurations.

Enhancing Functional Data Analysis with Sequential Neural Networks: Advantages and Comparative Study

Functional Data Analysis (FDA) is a statistical domain developed to handle functional data characterized by high dimensionality and complex data structures. Sequential Neural Networks (SNNs) are specialized neural networks capable of processing sequence data, a fundamental aspect of functional data. Despite their great flexibility in modeling functional data, SNNs have been inadequately employed in the FDA community. One notable advantage of SNNs is the ease of implementation, making them accessible to a broad audience beyond academia. Conversely, FDA-based methodologies present challenges, particularly for practitioners outside the field, due to their intricate complexity. In light of this, we propose utilizing SNNs in FDA applications and demonstrate their effectiveness through comparative analyses against popular FDA regression models based on numerical experiments and real-world data analysis. SNN architectures allow us to surpass the limitations of traditional FDA methods, offering scalability, flexibility, and improved analytical performance. Our findings highlight the potential of SNN-based methodologies as powerful tools for data applications involving functional data.

Collective enhancement in nuclear level density of $^{72}$Ga and its effect on $^{71}$Ga(n, $γ$)$^{72}$Ga capture cross-section

The $γ$-gated proton spectra measured in the reactions $^{64}$Ni($^{9}$Be, p2n)$^{70}$Ga and $^{64}$Ni($^{9}$Be, pn)$^{71}$Ga, have been utilized to obtain the nuclear level density (NLD) of $^{71}$Ga and $^{72}$Ga nuclei by using the statistical model (SM) calculations. It is seen that the $γ$-gated proton spectrum are reasonably explained by using the large value of the inverse level density parameter ($k$ = 11.2 MeV) in the NLD prescription of the Fermi gas (FG) model. The large value of $k$ is indicative of the rotational enhancement, which is consistent with the earlier results in other mass regions. Furthermore, a rotational enhancement factor has been included in the NLD and used in the SM calculation keeping the systematic value of $k$=8.6 MeV and it explains the $γ$-gated proton spectrum nicely. The result clearly indicates the presence of collective enhancement in NLD. Subsequently, the NLD with collective enhancement has been utilized in the TALYS calculation, for the first time, to calculate the $^{71}$Ga(n, $γ$)$^{72}$Ga capture cross-section. It is observed that, while the FG model without the collective enhancement in the NLD for $^{72}$Ga under predicts the capture data, with the rotational enhancement correction the FG model over predicts the data by similar amount at higher energies. However, in the energy range of 0.01 MeV to 0.1 MeV, the FG model corrected for rotational enhancement describes the data quite well. Thus, the present work indicates that collective enhancement, whenever required, should be taken into account fro proper description of low energy capture cross section data.

Shape evolution in the rapidly rotating $^{140}$Gd nucleus

Ground state band of $^{140}$Gd has been investigated following their population in the $^{112}$Sn($^{35}$Cl,~$α$p2n)$^{140}$Gd reaction at 195 MeV of beam energy using a large array of Compton suppressed HPGe clovers as the detection setup. Apart from other spectroscopic measurements, level lifetimes of the states have been extracted using the Doppler Shift Attenuation Method. Extracted quadrupole moment along with the pairing independent cranked Nilsson-Strutinsky model calculations for the quadrupole band reveal that the nucleus preferably attains triaxiality with $γ$ = -30$^\circ$. The calculation though shows a slight possibility of rotation around the longest possible principal axis at high spin $\sim$ 30$\hbar$ which is beyond the scope of the present experiment.

High Spin Spectroscopy and Shape Evolution in 105Cd

High spin states in 105Cd were studied using 16O beam on 92Mo reaction at an incident beam energy of 75 MeV. The level scheme of 105Cd has been observed up to an excitation energy of 10.8 MeV with the addition of 30 new gamma transitions to the previous work. Spin and parity for most of the reported levels are assigned from the DCO ratios and linear polarization measurements. The microscopic origin of the investigated band structures is discussed in the context of triaxial projected shell model. The energies of observed positive and negative parity bands agree with the predictions of the TPSM by considering triaxial deformation for the observed excited band structures. The shape evolution with increasing angular momentum is explained in the framework of Cranked Shell Model and the Total Routhian Surface calculations.

Incommensurate and Collinear Phases in a Doped Quantum Anti-ferromagnet

The Schwinger Boson mean field theories of the `t-J' model are extended by the consideration of anisotropic order parameters. This has two effects. First, a collinear phase, in which the spins are anti-ferromagnetically aligned in one direction and ferromagnetically aligned in the other, is found to be stable over a significant range of the phase diagram. Second, the (1,1) and (1,0) spiral phases become very close in energy. The inclusion of weak intra-sublattice coupling may therefore stabilise the (1,0) spiral with respect to the (1,1) spiral, thus harmonising theory and experiment.
