ABSTRACT
The E1-E2 interference sign between the E(c.m.)=2.68-MeV E2 resonance and an underlying E1 strength has been measured for the first time. An E1-E2 asymmetry parameter of a=0.07±0.05 was extracted from the thick-target γ-ray yields of the narrow resonance at angles of 45° and 135°. The positive sign of a corresponded to constructive interference at forward angles and, further, allowed the interference between the resonance and an E2 background to be identified as constructive below the resonance energy. The E2-E2 interference was then used to evaluate the global S(E2) data within the vicinity of the resonance 2.5≤E(c.m.)≤3.0 MeV. An analysis of the global S(E2) data that agreed with the interference scenario has determined the E2-E2 interference scheme of the 4.34-MeV resonance and background, resulting in a value of S(E2)(300)=62(-6)(+9) keV b.
