“…For these transitions, in order to estimate the multipolarity, angular distributions were extracted from the spectra of the seven rings of GASP (35 • , 60 • , 72 • , 90 • , 108 • , 120 • , and 145 • ). Since the GASP array has many detectors, placed at many different angles, the angular correlation effects between any two γ rays are washed out, so that the intensity of any γ ray in the seven rings does not depend on the character of the gating transition(s), but follows the regular angular distribution of γ rays from oriented nuclei [14].…”
