As one of a series of physics cases to demonstrate the unique benefit of the new Jet Experiments in Nuclear Structure and Astrophysics gas-jet target for enabling next-generation transfer reaction studies, the ¹⁴N (p, t)¹²N reaction was studied for the first time, using a pure jet of nitrogen, in an attempt to resolve conflicting information on the structure of ¹²N. A new level at 4.561-MeV excitation energy in ¹²N was found.
