Resumen
The shell closure at N=32 has been investigated by a first spectroscopy of the N=31 nucleus Ar49 at the Radioactive Isotope Beam Factory. Using the Ar50(p,pn) reaction channel in inverse kinematics, Ar50 projectiles at 217 MeV/nucleon impinged on a 150 mm long liquid hydrogen target, part of the MINOS device. Prompt deexcitation γ rays were measured with the NaI(Tl) array DALI2+. Reaction products were analyzed with the SAMURAI spectrometer, which allowed the measurement of the momentum distributions and angular momentum transfer. Data were compared to state-of-the-art theoretical predictions, including shell-model, energy-density functional, and ab initio calculations. An onset of collectivity is suggested besides the spherical configuration typical of a closed shell nucleus, such as for Ca52.
