Abstract

The structure of the neutron-rich nucleus Ar-47 has been investigated through the d(Ar-46, Ar-47)p transfer reaction. The radioactive beam of Ar-46 at 10 A (.) MeV was provided by the SPIRAL facility at GANIL. The protons corresponding to a neutron pick-up on bound or unbound states mechanism in Ar-47 nuclei were detected at backward angles by the position-sensitive Si array-detector MUST. The transfer-like ejectiles were detected in the SPEG spectrometer. Level scheme, spin assignments and spectroscopic factors have been deduced for Ar-47 and compared to shell model predictions. They suggest a slight erosion of the N = 28 shell gap from the weakening of the spin-orbit interaction arising from the f and p orbitals. These spectroscopic information are subsequently used to infer (n, gamma) reaction rates in the Ar isotopic chain.
