Abstract

The semi-magic nucleus Y-89 has been investigated in a (gamma,gamma') experiment at an endpoint energy of the bremsstrahlung of E-0 = 7 MeV. The scattered photons have been detected with a EUROBALL Cluster detector. The observed excitations are discussed in the framework of the shell model and a coupling of the unpaired proton to multi-phonon structures in the doubly even neighbours. Transitions above 4.7 MeV are considered to have El character. Around 6.3 MeV an unusually large concentration of El strength is found. Its origin is likely to correspond to similar structures in the Sr-88 and Zr-90 isotones which can be interpreted to result from the constructive interference of strong two-phonon amplitudes with weak admixtures from the low-energy tail of the giant dipole resonance.
