The reaction 58Ni(6Li,pny)62Zn was used to populate levels in 62Zn at bombarding energies between 15 and 24 MeV. Gamma-gamma and neutron-gamma coincidence measurements at beam energies of 20 and 24 MeV were used to establish a decay scheme up to 7.4 MeV in excitation. Spins and parities of the levels together with branching and mixing ratios of the gamma-ray transitions have been deduced from angular distribution and linear polarisation measurements. Mean lifetimes of many levels have been measured using the Doppler-shift attenuation method and the recoil-distance method. Comparisons are made with the shell model and the interacting boson approximation model.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
