Nuclei are the basic building blocks of matter. The entire Universe is composed of nuclei and understanding their properties allows us a glimpse into how the Universe transformed itself to support life. One way to study the properties of nuclei is by exciting and de-exciting the nuclear system. This research focuses on analyzing the lifetimes of the quantum states in deformed nuclei. This project will also contribute to training the next generation of scientists by actively engaging undergraduate students in research at the University of Wisconsin - La Crosse (UW-L).The nature of low-lying excitations, K = 0+ bands in deformed nuclei remain enigmatic in the eld. This project focuses on the search for vibrational excitations in deformed nuclei. The UW-L Nuclear Science Group has recently measured the lifetimes of states in 162Dy during the period of the grant, the group will analyze the results and interpret the implications the measurements. The UW-L Nuclear Science Group will also conduct detector work during the academic year in a small local laboratory. The results will be broadly disseminated through publications and conference presentations by the PI and undergraduate researchers.

核是物质的基本基础。整个宇宙都是由核组成的，了解它们的特性使我们可以瞥见宇宙如何改变自己的生活。研究核的特性的一种方法是激发和脱离核系统。这项研究重点是分析变形核中量子状态的寿命。该项目还将通过积极吸引本科生在威斯康星大学 - 拉克罗斯大学（UW-L）的研究中进行研究，从而为下一代科学家提供贡献。低洼的激发的性质，在Eld中，K = 0+的k = 0+频段仍然神秘。该项目着重于寻找变形核中的振动激发。 UW-L核科学集团最近测量了赠款期间162DY州的一生，该小组将分析结果并解释测量结果。 UW-L核科学小组还将在学年在一个小型当地实验室进行探测器工作。结果将通过PI和本科研究人员的出版物和会议演讲大致传播。
