The unexplained disagreement in the dependence of spectroscopic factors (đ¶2âąđexp) on the binding energy obtained by nucleon knockout using different targets is still a puzzle that needs to be addressed. To find an explanation of this riddle through exclusive measurements using different targets. The exclusive measurements were performed by using a 17Ne beam with an energy of 500 MeV/u incident on C and CH2 targets. Through the standard theoretical approach, đ¶2âąđexp were derived from the analysis of the experimental data on proton ejection from the proton halo in 17Ne as well as from its core 15O. For the C target, proton ejection from the proton halo gave đ¶2âąđexp about 37% smaller than for the H target. But when protons are ejected from the core of 17Ne, đ¶2âąđexp are identical within statistical uncertainties. An explanation for the difference in đ¶2âąđexp could be the removal of both halo protons, a more important reaction pathway for the C target. The đ¶2âąđexp values obtained by analyzing the proton ejection from the core indicate that it is not affected by the interaction with the halo protons.
