Abstract

The decay of ⁸⁰Zn to levels in ⁸⁰Ga has been studied from mass-separated activity produced in the thermal neutron fission of ²³⁵U. Based on singles and coincidence measurements, 26 ϒ rays were placed in a level scheme for ⁸⁰Ga with 13 excited states up to 2655 keV. The emission of a ray resulting from delayed neutron emission of ⁸⁰Gais also reported. The structure of the ⁸⁰Ga level scheme is discussed. The properties of ⁸⁰Zn and ⁸⁰Ga reported here are of astrophysical interest for modeling the r process.
