Measurements of deexcitation g rays in coincidence with the momentum distribution of the projectile residues produced in reactions of the type 9 Be͑ 28 P, 27 Si 1 g͒X at energies around 65 MeV͞u are used to study single-nucleon stripping to individual states. The cross sections are compared with calculations based on an eikonal model description of the reaction and the shell model. The measurements indicate that the halo character of the ground state and other detailed spectroscopic information can be derived using knockout reactions in inverse kinematics. [S0031-9007(98)
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
