Abstract

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>A projectile Coulomb-excitation experiment was performed at the radioactive ion beam facility HIE-ISOLDE at CERN. The radioactive <jats:sup>140</jats:sup>Nd and <jats:sup>142</jats:sup>Sm ions were post accelerated to the energy of 4.62 MeV/A and impinged on a 1.45 mg/cm<jats:sup>2</jats:sup>-thin <jats:sup>208</jats:sup>Pb target. The <jats:italic>γ</jats:italic> rays depopulating the Coulomb-excited states were recorded by the HPGe-array MINIBALL. The scattered charged particles were detected by a double-sided silicon strip detector in forward direction. Experimental <jats:italic>γ</jats:italic>-ray intensities were used for the determination of electromagnetic transition matrix elements.
