Nuclear Data Sheets for A=155

This work represents an update of the previous evaluation of the nuclear data on the A=155 nuclides (2005Re01). The experimental data from reaction and decay studies leading to the following nuclides have been reviewed: {sup 155}La, {sup 155}Ce, {sup 155}Pr, {sup 155}Nd, {sup 155}Pm, {sup 155}Sm, {sup 155}Eu, {sup 155}Gd, {sup 155}Tb, {sup 155}Dy, {sup 155}Ho, {sup 155}Er, {sup 155}Tm, {sup 155}Yb, {sup 155}Lu, {sup 155}Hf, and {sup 155}Ta. These data are presented, together with the adopted level schemes and their properties.

νi 13/2 structures in 155 Sm and 159 Gd: Supporting evidence of a Z = 60 deformed subshell gap

Maximal ground-state deformation should occur when both proton and neutron Fermi surfaces are located at midshell. However, subshell gaps that stabilize large deformation can exist at proton or neutron values other than midshell. One such gap may occur at Z = 60 in the rare-earth region, as the energy of the first 2 + states in even-even nuclei are often lowest in an isotonic chain for neodymium (Z = 60) rather than the midshell isotopes of dysprosium (Z = 66). Further evidence of this deformed gap has now been observed by investigating the signature splitting systematics of the νi 13/2 bands found in the odd-N, rare-earth nuclei. Furthermore, these were aided by the present observation of the νi 13/2 band in 159 Gd and the confirmation of the same structure in 155 Sm via the transfer of a neutron from a 160 Gd beam to a 154 Sm target.
