The lifetimes of the 1.63-, 4.25-, 4.97-, and 5.63-MeV levels in 20Ne have been measured by the Doppler shift attenuation method. The lifetimes in picoseconds are 1.23 ± 0.12, 0.134 ± 0.012, [Formula: see text], and 0.35 ± 0.075 respectively. The reduced widths in Weisskopf units for the 1.63-, 2.62-, 3.34-, and 4.00-MeV gamma-ray transitions, together with the gamma-ray multipolarities, are [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text].

The decay of the 3.696 MeV level in 25Al has been studied by means of the 24Mg(p,γ)25Al reaction at the 1.49 MeV resonance. Gamma-ray branching ratios, direct angular distributions, and lifetimes determined by the Doppler shift attenuation method are reported.

A search is described for an excited Kn = 0+ rotational band based on the 6� 44 MeV level of 24Mg. Mean nuclear lifetimes have been measured by the Doppler shift attenuation method using the 12C('60,a)24Mg reaction and the results are 't'm = 66�29, 28�7 and 13�3 fs for levels at 6'44, 8�65 and 10� 58 MeV respectively. The absolute transition rates found for the y decays from the 6�44 and 8�65 MeV levels are in good agreement with the results of shell model calculations if it is assumed that these levels are the 0+ and 2 + members respectively of the excited Kn = 0+ rotational band. Based on this assumption, a result Qoo = 0�48 �0�08b is obtained for the intraband quadrupole moment. From a study of the 23Na(p, y) reaction, it is established that the J = 4 levels at 12� 63 and 13�05 MeV do not decay by enhanced E2 transitions to the 8� 65 MeV level. This suggests that neither of these levels is the 4 + member of the excited Kn = 0+ rotational band. An assignment of J" = 4+ is made to one member of the doublet at 10�58 MeV.

Lifetime measurements have been made by the Doppler-shift attenuation method for the 1.98-, 3.63-, 3.92-, and 4.45-Mev states in O18 and the 1.28-, 3.34-, and 4.47-Mev states in Ne22, excited by the reactions Li7(C12, pγ)O18 and Li7(O16, pγ)Ne22. Branching ratios have also been measured. The results are tabulated.[Formula: see text]The decay of the 3.92-Mev state in O18 is 93.5% to the 1.98-Mev state and 6.5% to the ground state and of the 4.45-Mev state 74% to the 3.63-Mev state, 26% to the 1.98-Mev state, and less than 2% to the ground state. In Ne22, the ground-state transition from the 4.47-Mev state is less than 2% of the decay to the first excited state.

Lifetimes of nuclear states have been measured by the Doppler-shift attenuation method. Gamma radiations from the 11B(d,pγ)12B, 19F(p,αγ)16O, and 12C(h,pγ)14N reactions were observed with a Ge(Li) detector at θγ = 7°, 90° and 173°. The following lifetimes were obtained:[Formula: see text]Upper limits have been set for very fast lifetimes, and transition energies were also determined. The partial widths of the radiative transitions from the 6.44 MeV state of 14N were compared with theoretical predictions. The amplitude of a (p3/2)−2 configuration in the wave function of this level was evaluated using the partial width of the 6.44 → 3.95 MeV transition determined in the present work.
