Popis: | Author(s): Lubna, RS; Tripathi, V; Tabor, SL; Tai, PL; Kravvaris, K; Bender, PC; Volya, A; Bouhelal, M; Chiara, CJ; Carpenter, MP; Janssens, RVF; Lauritsen, T; McCutchan, EA; Zhu, S; Clark, RM; Fallon, P; MacChiavelli, AO; Paschalis, S; Petri, M; Reviol, W; Sarantites, DG | Abstract: Excited states in the neutron-rich isotopes P33 and P34 were populated by the O18+O18 fusion-evaporation reaction at Elab=24 MeV. The Gammasphere array was used along with the Microball particle detector array to detect γ transitions in coincidence with the charged particles emitted from the compound nucleus S36. The use of Microball enabled the selection of the proton emission channel. It also helped in determining the exact position and energy of the emitted proton; this was later employed in kinematic Doppler corrections. 16 new transitions and 13 new states were observed in P33 and 21 γ rays and 20 energy levels were observed in P34 for the first time. The nearly 4π geometry of Gammasphere allowed the measurement of γ-ray angular distributions leading to spin assignments for many states. The experimental observations for both isotopes were interpreted with the help of shell-model calculations using the (0+1)ω PSDPF interaction. The calculations accounted for both the 0p-0h and 1p-1h states reasonably well and indicated that 2p-2h excitations might dominate the higher-spin configurations in both P33 and P34. |
