Abstract

The extremely neutron-deficient isotopes ^177,179Au were studied by means of in-beam γ-ray spectroscopy. Specific tagging techniques, α-decay tagging in ¹⁷⁷Au and isomer tagging in ¹⁷⁹Au, were used for these studies. Feeding of positive-parity, nearly spherical states, which are associated with 2d_3/2 and 3s_1/2 proton-hole configurations, from the 1i_13/2 proton-intruder configuration was observed in ¹⁷⁷Au. Such a decay path has no precedent in odd-Au isotopes and it is explained by the effect of mixing of wave functions of the initial state.
