Investigating trends in proton single-particle states in Z = 51 isotopes using transfer reactions

Abstract

A study of low-lying excited states in Z 51 isotopes has been performed using single-proton adding reactions, (α,t) and (3He,d), on the series of stable, even mass Z 50 isotopes. Our goal was to build upon results from a previous (α,t) study [1] by examining the fragmentation of high-j (g7/2 and h11/2) single-proton strengths utilising greater statistics. Data from the (3He,d) measurements provide further information regarding the low-j orbitals within this nuclear shell. Preliminary findings from the analysis are presented in this report. Show more
