Abstract

In recent ¹⁶⁰Gd(p,t) reaction studies the existence of more than ten 0⁺ states in ¹⁵⁸Gd below 3.0 MeV was revealed. We have examined ¹⁵⁸Gd with the (n,n′γ) reaction at neutron energies up to 3.5 MeV to confirm the identification of these states and to determine their lifetimes through DSAM measurements. Gamma-ray excitation function and angular distribution measurements have been performed and γ - γ coincidences have been measured with the KEGS array of detectors. Moderately strong decays are observed from some of these 0⁺ states.
