Selective excitation and γ-decay studies of the Pygmy Dipole Resonance in 120Sn with SONIC@HORUS — •Michael Weinert, Vera Derya, Andreas Hennig, Simon G. Pickstone, Mark Spieker, Julius Wilhelmy, and Andreas Zilges — Institute for Nuclear Physics, University of Cologne.
The excitation of states belonging to the Pygmy Dipole Resonance (PDR) in 120Sn was observed in a 119Sn(d,pγ) experiment, using the SONIC@HORUS setup at the 10 MV Tandem accelerator in Cologne. The setup, consisting of 6 ΔE-E silicon and 14 HPGe detectors, allows a selection of reaction, excitation, and deexcitation channels in an offline analysis, due to complete kinematics. Several excited states were identified as Jπ=1(−) states by comparison with results from a nuclear resonance fluorescence experiment [1], establishing the (d,p) reaction as an additional tool to study the PDR. Preliminary analysis shows that a γ-decay branching to the first 2+ state is observed and branching ratios can be determined. The contribution will present the experiment and principles of the data analysis needed to select transitions from Jπ=1− states. Furthermore, the latest status of the analysis will be presented, including branching ratios and branching-corrected B(E1) values, which will allow a more stringent comparison with recent inelastic proton scattering data [2].
