Abstract

Excited states in the deformed nucleus Gd-158 have been studied in the (p, t) reaction using the Munich Tandem Accelerator and the Q3D spectrograph. Thirty-six excited 0(+) states (five tentative) have been assigned up to the 4.3 MeV excitation energy. This large number of excited 0(+) states in a deformed nucleus, close to a complete level scheme for this spin and parity, offers a new opportunity to test nuclear models and obtain more information on the structure of these special states.
