Ordering of the and proton levels in light nuclei
We completed a survey of the available single-proton data in A ≤ 17 nucleid. These data, along with calculations using a Woods-Saxon potential, show that the ordering of the 0d 5/2 and 1s 1/2 proton orbitals are determined primarily by the proximity of the s-state proton energy to the Coulomb barrier. We found this analogous to the dependence of the corresponding neutron orbitals in proximity to the neutron threshold, that was previously discussed.
