Abstract

An α-decay study of At218 was performed at the CERN-ISOLDE facility. Laser-ionized beams of At218 were mass separated and implanted into an α-γ detection setup. Coincidence α-γ data were collected for the first time and a more precise half-life value of T1/2=1.27(6) s was measured. A new α-decay scheme was deduced based on the extracted reduced α-decay widths for fine-structure decays. The results from this work lead to a preferred spin and parity assignment of Jπ=(3-); however, Jπ=(2)- cannot be fully excluded.
