Observation of Thermodynamical Properties in the 162Dy, 166Er and 172Yb Nuclei
Abstract
The density of accessible levels in the (3He,α γ) reaction has been extracted for the 162Dy, 166Er and 172Yb nuclei. The nuclear temperature is measured as a function of excitation energy in the region of 0 -- 6 MeV. The temperature curves reveal structures indicating new degrees of freedom. The heat capacity of the nuclear system is discussed within the framework of a canonical ensemble.
