Neutron-rich Co isotopes from N = 34 to 40 were studied through multinucleon transfer by bombarding a 238U target with a 460 MeV 70Zn beam at the Legnaro National Laboratories. Gamma-recoil ...coincidences were recorded identifying the ions by using a high-acceptance magnetic spectrometer (PRISMA) and detecting the gamma radiation by using an array of HPGe clover detectors (CLARA). The results are discussed in comparison with the predictions of large-scale shell-model calculations.
A 4π Si-ball detector system has been constructed as a trigger device for the γ-ray spectrometer GASP. The construction and operation of the detector is reported, together with a brief description of ...the electronics and of the data acquisition system used. Results are presented for the

High-spin states in 36Cl were populated through the 24Mg(14N,2p)36Cl reaction at E(14N)=31 MeV. Lifetimes have been determined for fifteen states by applying the Doppler shift attenuation method. The ...results indicated the onset of collectivity in the high spin negative parity states. Large basis shell model calculations have been performed to understand the underlying structure of these states.
Gamma rays from the N = Z-2 nucleus (50)Fe have been observed, establishing the rotational ground state band up to the state J(pi) = 11+ at 6.994 MeV excitation energy. The experimental Coulomb ...energy differences, obtained by comparison with the isobaric analog states in its mirror (50)Cr, confirm the qualitative interpretation of the backbending patterns in terms of successive alignments of proton and neutron pairs. A quantitative agreement with experiment has been achieved by exact shell model calculations, incorporating the differences in radii along the yrast bands, and properly renormalizing the Coulomb matrix elements in the pf model space.

An iron/gas parallel plate volume calorimeter prototype, working in the avalanche mode, has been tested using electrons of 20 to 150 GeV/c momentum with high voltages varying from 5400 to 5600 V ...(electric fields ranging from 36.0 to 37.3 kV/ cm), and a gas mixture of CF

2 (80%/20%). The collected charge has been measured as a function of the high voltage and of the electron energy. The energy resolution has also been measured. Comparisons have been made with Monte Carlo predictions. Agreement between data and simulation allows the calculation of the expected performance of a full size calorimeter.
