Nuclear Data Sheets for A=158

The experimental results published before February 2017 from the various reaction and decay studies leading to nuclides {sup 158}Nd, {sup 158}Pm, {sup 158}Sm, {sup 158}Eu, {sup 158}Gd, {sup 158}Tb, {sup 158}Dy, {sup 158}Ho, {sup 158}Er, {sup 158}Tm, {sup 158}Yb, {sup 158}Lu, {sup 158}Hf, {sup 158}Ta, {sup 158}W in the A=158 mass chain have been reviewed. These data are summarized and presented, together with adopted level schemes and properties. Large sections of the mass chain are almost identical to the ones in the previous 2004He05 NDS publication by R.G. Helmer.

Reduced probabilities for E2 transitions between excited collective states of triaxial even–even nuclei

Reduced probabilities for intra- and interband E2 transitions in excited collective states of even–even lanthanide and actinide nuclei are analyzed on the basis of a model that admits an arbitrary triaxiality. They are studied in detail in the energy spectra of {sup 154}Sm, {sup 156}Gd, {sup 158}Dy, {sup 162,164}Er, {sup 230,232}Th, and {sup 232,234,236,238}U even–even nuclei. Theoretical and experimental values of the reduced probabilities for the respective E2 transitions are compared. This comparison shows good agreement for all states, including high-spin ones. The ratios of the reduced probabilities for the E2 transitions in question are compared with results following from the Alaga rules. These comparisons make it possible to assess the sensitivity of the probabilities being considered to the presence of quadrupole deformations.

Submicron R{sub 2}Fe{sub 14}B particles

Mechanochemical synthesis of submicron R{sub 2}Fe{sub 14}B particles with R = Dy, Nd, Pr has been performed successfully via high energy ball milling of rare-earth oxides, iron oxide and boron oxide in the presence of a reducing agent (Ca) and a dispersant material (CaO), followed by annealing at 800 - 900 °C. In the R = Nd system, we were able to fabricate particles embedded in a CaO matrix with coercivity (H{sub c}) of 10.3 kOe after annealing at 900 °C for 5 min. After washing off the dispersant, the H{sub c} was decreased to below 1 kOe because of hydrogen absorption that leads to the formation of the hydrated R{sub 2}Fe{sub 14}BH{sub x} phase that has a lower anisotropy. Upon removal of the hydrogen the coercivity was increased to 3.3 kOe. The average size of the Nd{sub 2}Fe{sub 14}B particles increases from 100 nm in a sample synthesized at 800 °C to 158 nm at 900 °C. The isotropic Dy{sub 2}Fe{sub 14}B particles showed a higher coercivity of 21 kOe in washed samples after annealing at 900 °C for 5 min. An average size of 71 nm is measured in samples synthesized at 800 °C and 107 nm at 900 °C. Fitting the high field M(H) measurements in Nd{sub 2}Fe{sub 14}B to the law of approach to saturation gave values for the magnetocrystalline anisotropy for the washed sample 2.23 × 10{sup 7} erg/cm{sup 3} and for the vacuum annealed sample 4.15 × 10{sup 7} erg/cm{sup 3}, both of which are lower than the bulk values. This would explain the lower values of H{sub c} observed in the particles.
