Fine structure in the odd-odd proton emitter Tm 144
Axial symmetry breaking in 144 Tm is probed by examining its proton emission fine structure. The ground-state spin and parity in 144 Tm and daughter 143 Er are assigned unambiguously based on the corroboration of our calculations with the present data. Here we establish the first microscopic description of fine structure in odd-odd proton emitters, which is capable of resolving ambiguities present in the assignments of transitions in such nuclei.
