Motivation
The exotic phenomenon of two-phonon gamma-vibration in deformed nuclei has been a stimulating and extensively discussed theme in nuclear structure research. The Erbium isotopes offer a unique opportunity to experimentally observe such exotic collective excitations, and test alternative theoretical model approaches. Following evidences in 166Er and 168Er, we plan to search this excitation toward the neutron-deficient side in the Er chain of isotopes. The primary nucleus of interest is 164Er in this investigation, which we plan to study using alpha transfer reaction from 6Li projectile. INGA array, coupled with CPDA and LaBr3 detectors will be used.

information on the past beamtime at PLF
A short experiment was done to investigate a different physics case in A~50-60 mass region in November 2022 using an alternate target (50Ti) which did not yield the originally desired outcome. The originally proposed target (48Ca) was unfortunately broken at the beginning of that experiment.
