Low-lying states in /sup 96/Nb from the (t,. cap alpha. ) reaction

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
The nuclear structure of /sup 96/Nb has been studied with the (t,..cap alpha..) reaction at 17 MeV on an isotopically enriched target of /sup 97/Mo using a quadrupole--three-dipole spectrometer. Measured angular distributions were compared with distorted-wave Born approximation calculations to assign l transfer values. The results are combined with published data and shell model considerations to reassign the 3/sup -/ state of the low-lying ..pi..(p(1/2))/sup 1/..nu..(d(5/2))/sup -1/ configuration and to confirm the assignments of the spins and parities of the other levels observed.
