The excited states in 107 Ag were populated through the heavy-ion fusion evaporation reaction 100 Mo ( 11 B, 4n) 107 Ag at a beam energy of 46 MeV. Lifetimes of high-spin states in 107 Ag have been measured through the Doppler shift attenuation method. The deduced B(M1) values, gradually decreasing with increasing spin, clearly demonstrate that both the yrast positive-parity band and the yrast negative-parity band in 107 Ag are magnetic rotation bands. Furthermore, experimental deduced B(M1) values for the yrast positive-parity band are compared with the predictions of the particle rotor model. The approximate agreement between theoretical calculations and experimental results further confirms the mechanism of magnetic rotation for the yrast positive-parity band. In addition, a systematic investigation shows the evolution of the magnetic rotation mechanism in the A ≈ 110 mass region.
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.
