RDDS coincidence lifetime measurement for two superdeformed states in192Hg

Abstract
Lifetimes of two superdeformed states in 192Hg were measured with the recoil distance Doppler shift coincidence method, using the 160Gd(36S,4n)192Hg reaction at a beam energy of 168 MeV. The experiment was performed with the GASP set-up at the LNL, Legnaro. The obtained transitional quadrupole moments are in accordance with those obtained previously for the higher members of the superdeformed band.
