Abstract

Reduced transition probabilities between the low-lying states of 132Ba were measured using the Coulomb excitation technique. The experiment was performed at Inter University Accelerator Center (IUAC), New Delhi using a 58Ni beam of 175 MeV energy to Coulomb excite the 132Ba nuclei. In addition to the 2+1 state, other states in 132Ba, such as 2+2 and 4+1 , were populated, the latter for the first time using Coulomb excitation. A set of matrix elements was extracted for the transitions between these levels. These values were determined relative to 134Ba excitations to minimize the systematic errors. A B(E2; 0+gs → 2+1) value of 1.088(85) e2 b2 was determined, corresponding to -54:5 single-particle units.
