Abstract

Neutron-rich radioactive ion beams available from the HRIBF allow a variety of measurements around the ¹³²Sn region, including Coulomb excitation and single-nucleon transfer. The B(E2;0⁺ → 2⁺) values for first 2⁺ excited states of even-even neutron-rich ^132-136Te and ^126-130Sn have been measured by Coulomb excitation in inverse kinematics. Neutron transfer onto a ¹³⁴Te beam from ⁹Be and ¹³C targets, to populate single-particle states in ¹³⁵Te, has also been studied. Gamma rays from the ¹³C(¹³⁴Te, ¹²C) reaction were used to identify the νi _13/2 state in ¹³⁵Te, at an energy of 2109 keV. These and other results, and plans for future experiments with these neutron-rich beams, are presented.
