Abstract

Isomers produced by spontaneous fission of ${}^{252}$Cf have been measured with the VESPA setup, composed of LaBr$_3$(Ce) detectors for fast $\gamma$-ray spectroscopy and an ionization chamber for detecting fission fragments. Identification of the isomers was derived from fission fragment-$\gamma$-$\gamma$ coincidences. This paper presents the half-life of 34 isomeric states measured with this setup, from less than the nanosecond up to tens of microseconds. Two of these isomers are reported for the first time, in ${}^{108}$Tc and ${}^{147}$Ce. In addition to this half-life analysis, the isomers are used to develop and test a nuclear charge calibration of the ionization chamber.

利用 VESPA 装置确定{}^{252}$Cf 自发裂变产生的异构体的特征

VESPA装置由用于快速伽马射线谱分析的LaBr_3(Ce)探测器和用于探测裂变碎片的电离室组成，测量了{}^{252}$Cf自发裂变产生的同分异构体。本文介绍了用这种装置测量到的 34 种异构体状态的半衰期，从小于纳秒到几十微秒不等。首次报告了其中的两种异构体：${}^{108}$锝和${}^{147}$铈。除了半衰期分析之外，这些异构体还被用于开发和测试电离室的核电荷校准。
