“…To identify the 40 Sc states in the 42 Sc spectrum, we recorded the 0 • , ( 3 He, t) spectrum from an enriched 40 Ca target under the same experimental conditions as for the 42 Ca target. As a result, excitations of the J π = 2 − , 0.772 MeV state, 1 + 44 Sc and 43 Sc, respectively, are also included in the observed IAS peak. These contributions were calculated assuming that the total B(F) strength of N − Z is carried by the IAS peak.…”
