Structure studies of 257Db through combined α, γ and internal-conversion-electron spectroscopy

Le résumé fourni par la source

This work reports on the study of the decay properties along the $^{257}$Db decay chain using the GABRIELA setup. The first observation of a high-K isomer in $^{257}$Db is presented. In addition, an unreported $α$-decay branch in $^{249}$Md has been evidenced, allowing to constrain the differences in energy of the $α$-decaying levels in $^{249}$Md, $^{253}$Lr and $^{257}$Db. Finally, the combination of the observed fine structure $α$-decay from the high-spin state in $^{257}$Db with the first observation the internal decay in $^{253}$Lr requires a revision of level and decay scheme. In particular, a change of parity for the high-spin state from 9/2$^{+}$ to 9/2$^{-}$ in the $^{257}$Db is suggested, and the implications of such a change are also discussed.
