Photon Absorption And Scattering, Hydrostatic Stellar Nucleosynthesis, 150<=A<=189

Scientific paper

The depopulation of the quasistable isomer (Jπ=9-, Ex=75 keV) in 180Ta through resonant photoabsorption was studied with intense bremsstrahlung. The results show evidence for a deexciting level with an energy of 1.085 MeV or below, leading to a dramatic acceleration of the isomer decay to the short-lived Jπ=1+ ground state under stellar s-process conditions. Consequences for a possible nucleosynthesis of nature's rarest isotope 180Ta within the s process are discussed. .
