Doppler Shift Attenuation Method (DSAM) analysis of excited-state
lifetimes normally employs thin production targets mounted on a thick
stopper foil (“backing”) serving to slow down and stop the recoiling nuclei
of interest in a well-defined manner. Use of a thick, homogeneous production
target leads to a more complex analysis as it results in a substantial
decrease in the energy of the incident projectile which traverses the target
with an associated change in the production cross section of the residues
as a function of penetration depth. Here, a DSAM lifetime analysis using a thick homogeneous target has been verified using the Doppler broadened
lineshapes of γ rays following the decay of highly excited states in the
semi-magic (N = 50) nucleus 94Ru. Lifetimes of excited states in the 94Ru
nucleus have been obtained using a modified version of the LINESHAPE
package from the Doppler broadened lineshapes resulting from the emission
of the γ rays, while the residual nuclei were slowing down in the thick
(6 mg/cm2
) metallic 58Ni target. The results have been validated by comparison
with a previous measurement using a different (RDDS) technique.
