The a7Cl(d, 3He)36S and 39K(d, 3He)3SAr reactions have been studied at a bombarding energy of 28.9 MeV. The results are compared with theoretical calculations for two or four holes in the sd-shell. The three-hole spectrum of 37C] is also briefly discussed. In the calculation for 3SAr, additional states of a two-particle four-hole nature are included. In 3SAr, the ground state and levels at 2.166 and 7.14 MeV are excited principally by l = 2 transfer, while transitions with appreciable l = 0 strength are observed to levels at 3. 935, 4.569, 5.158 and 5.563 MeV. This fragmentation is quite well reproduced by the inclusion of the 2p-4h states. In particular the level at 3,935 MeV is largely of this type, a conclusion supported by both the spectroscopic factors and ~ transition rates. The 36S ground state and levels at 6.511 and 7.12 MeV in 36S have angular distributions characteristic of l = 2. Three transitions with l = 0 strength are observed to levels at 3. 295, 4.523 and 4.577 MeV in this nucleus. An additional level was identified at 7.71 MeV but the/-transfer could not be determined. The data are only qualitatively reproduced by the four-hole calculation, which while useful in making probable jr assignments, suggests that core excitation is important here also.
The 2°SPb(at, 3He)Z°9pb reaction at 58 MeV has been used to search for high-spin states in a°gPb. Only three levels are excited with appreciable intensity: the ground state (2g~) and levels at 0.781 (1i¥) and 1.426 MeV (lj~). The angular distributions for these levels have been measured and analyzed using standard DWBA calculations to obtain spectroscopic strengths. The 2°SPb(et, ~) elastic scattering was measured and optical parameters deduced from the data. A normalization value N = 50 yields spectroscopic values which are close to the values measured in the (d, p) reaction. The (% 3He) reaction should easily pick out any appreciable components of the j¥ shell model state, which weak-coupling calculations predict should be fragmented. However only three weak transitions previously seen in a (d, p) experiment are observed.
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.
