Abstract
Investigations of neutron-rich nuclei, particularly those that lie in regions of the nuclear chart known for a high probability of isomeric states forming, are of vital importance to the understanding of nuclear astrophysical processes. Studies of these nuclei, such as 190Re, can be used to validate and improve theoretical models of such processes. A polarised-beam experiment has been performed using the Munich Q3D magnetic spectrograph in order to investigate the energy-level structure of 190Re. An excitation-energy spectrum has been produced, allowing for energies to be assigned to observed states. Through comparison between measured and calculated differential cross-sections and vector analysing powers, the process of assigning spin and parity to newly observed states, and confirming the assignments for previously observed states, is underway.
