This is a photograph of Charles Coryell taken in about 1954. Charles was in Inorganic Chemist recruited from UCLA in 1942 to head the effort at ORNL to study the fission-produce yields. �
At Cal Tech, he had become and remains famous for a paper… “Pauling and Coryell” that opened Pauling’s life-long study of hemoglobin and blood chemistry. �
Charles’ group discovered element 61 during the war, and named it Promethium, Pm, for the god of fire. The work was published in a 3 volume series with Sugarman.�
And, in 1956, he was the first to identify the solar abundance peaks at N = 50, 82, and 126 with closed neutron shells to provide a basis for r- and s-process nucleosynthesis.�
1912 - 1971�

My plan is to follow the study of fission-product decay from:�
MIT via chemical methods�
TRISTAN on-line mass separation with limited ion-source selectivity�
ISOLDE on-line mass separation with laser ionization, �
�ion-source selectivity and suppression of some elements,�
�and molecular-ion selectivity�

Two theses were prepared in the 1970 time frame at MIT, one by my student, Ken Apt, and one by Coryell’s student, Hasan Erten.�

At Maryland during the 1970’s, we had been working with 3-detector angular correlations and proposed an extension to 4 detectors for the work at TRISTAN.�
The isotopes that could be studied were the thermal-neutron fission products of 235U.�

This is a summary of work out group performed at TRISTAN. Craig Stone studied the Sn isotopes, Scott Faller worked on the Xe decay, and Dave Robertson� worked on the Ba decay. Ion source development started with Re ionizer for Ba nuclei, then plasma for the Sn isotopes and LaBr6 for Iodine. Finally, we could do the short-lived 127Sn decay. Overall, decays from 27 nuclei were studied.�

Our initial interest was in the 144Ba decay to odd-odd 144La, which has been published, and opened our interest in Vladimir Paar’s parabolas. In the process, we also studied 144Ce.�

Chien Chung had worked out this decay scheme containing 400 gamma rays and 80 levels. We had no idea how to publish it, so the data were sent to the Nuclear Data Center. PC’s and Lotus 1-2-3 came along just in time to make it possible to organize the data in a useful way.�

The TRISTAN operation ground to a halt in the late 1980’s owing to safety concerns at the HFBR. OSTIS also was closed.�
Meantime…..�
The data flowing in from Supernova 1987a fueled a new interest in r-process nucleosynthesis that provided motivation for added measurements of the decay and structure properties of nuclei that lie in the path of the r-process. �
Since the Seuss and Urey paper in 1956, there had been much interest in the astrophysical production of heavy elements.�
![Page 23: from Coryell to CARIBU - Argonne National LaboratoryThis is a photograph of Charles Coryell taken in about 1954.

This report by Coryell came almost immediately after a Seuss and Urey paper reporting good solar abundances..�
129Ag was deemed important on DAY ONE. �
In other words, there were two waiting points, one for capture of neutrons on a slow time scale on elements near stability, and one for nuclei much farther from stability that must be on a faster time scale�

The major BBFH paper appeared in 1957, but was preceded in October, 1956, by an article in Science.�
Stated another way, BBFH were aware of the �Coryell work prior to this article and their seminal article in 1957.�

It was THIRTY years after Coryell, and BBFH before the first successful measurement for the 130Cd half life emerged at ISOLDE. This was a very hard measurement, and did not bode well for further work with the plasma ion source.�

August 1997�
Setup in 1996 had been done with stable 107Ag which has a ½- ground-state spin. The question was raised about hyperfine interactions and whether some adjustment would help yields for the expected 9/2+ spin for 129Ag. The answer was yes. In other words, hyperfine tuning could provide “isomer-specific” ionization.�

These β-delayed neutron data support the presence of β-decaying ½- isomers in 125,127Ag, but not necessarily 123Ag, but Pn could be a factor.�
The search for 129Ag was performed at the “green” setting.�
![Page 34: from Coryell to CARIBU - Argonne National LaboratoryThis is a photograph of Charles Coryell taken in about 1954. Charles was in Inorganic Chemist recruited from UCLA in 1942 to head](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022040817/5e611617c6f3135f486fe4da/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
The astrophysical impact was large as the short half life “lowered the impact of” 129Ag as a major waiting-point nucleus, and also strongly suggested that the lower N = 82 isotones would also have shorter half-lives and also not be major waiting points. Although it was a “theoretical surprise”, any look at the half-lives for the lighter Ag nuclei measured in 1996 could see…… 150…. 100….. 80….. 60….40.�
The successful development and utilization of the Resonance Ionization Laser Ion Source (RILIS) then paved the way to develop ionization schemes for Cd, In, Sn, and Sb.�
The study of the decay of the Cd isotopes was improved significantly by the development of means to suppress ionization of daughter In isotopes. This was done by using a quartz transfer tube onto which the In stuck.�

This drawing exhibits the difference between the measured mass of 130Cd and the value calculated by the FRDM, showing that 130Cd is 1.6 MeV less bound than expected.�
Also shown is the measured position of the 1+ level in 130In that is 740 keV higher in energy than the value calculated prior to the measurement. The measured value can be fitted by a 30% reduction in the proton-neutron interaction strength.�
Hence, there is now evidence that some reduction in both “neutron-neutron” and “proton-neutron” interactions may be needed.�

The 68 (3) ms half-life and 3.5% Pn values for 131Cd remain somewhat anomalous and deserve more attention.�

The green dot is the 1986 point whereas the red dots are from the 1999 measurements performed with RILIS. One observation is that, at that time, nearly all calculated half-lives were HIGHER the values eventually observed.�

During the past 15 years, the half-lives have been measured from 129Ag to 139Sb. The work at N = 82 has improved the ability to extrapolate “down the N = 82 chain” to make better estimates for the other N = 82 “likely waiting-point isotopes”. The IMPACT is that it is now possible to provide a “reasonable” model fit for the r-process yields!!!! These data make it possible to account for the “steep” left slope of the peak owing to the shorter-than-expected half-lives up the N = 82 chain, and, perhaps, somewhat longer-than-expected half-lives for the Sn and Sb nuclei.�

One major impact of these measurements has been the ability to identify model calculations that do not provide good fits to the data. For 128Pd, the range is from 30 to 50 ms. For 126Ru, the maximum is only about 20 ms…..not much waiting with that half-life.�

This result was obtained with an ISOLDE ion source using Sulfur gas, enriched in 34S in the ion source, creating SnS+ ions that are 34 mass units heavier than the isobaric Cs that is strongly ionized. The ½+ level shown below was populated in beta-delayed neutron decay from 136Sn decay. The calculation had been previously published indication the level should be at 527 keV…… ..it was found at 523 keV.�
