Investigation of lifetimes in dipole bands of 141Eu

Lifetimes have been measured for dipole bands in Eu-141 using DSAM. The deduced B(M1) and B(E2) values as well as B(M1)/B(E2) ratios are compared with calculations in the framework of the TAC (Tilted Axis Cranking) and SPAC (Shears mechanism with Principal Axis Cranking) models. The dipole bands can be interpreted as magnetic rotational bands.
