The puzzle of suppression of nuclear level density in N ≈ Z Zn isotopes compared to N > Z

A systematic investigation of isospin dependence of nuclear level density (NLD) is performed for the Zn isotopes. Experimental level densities of 67Zn and 61Zn have been determined by analyzing the spectra of evaporated neutrons emitted from the excited 68Zn and 62Zn nuclei populated via 4He + 64Ni...
