Abstract

The 97 Mo nucleus has been studied with the reaction 95 Mo (t, p) 97 Mo using a multichannel magnetic spectrograph. The isotopically enriched thin target 95 Mo was bombarded with the 12 MeV triton beam obtained from the tandem Van de Graaff accelerator at the Atomic Weapon Research Establishment, Aldermaston. Proton spectra are obtained at 12 different angles from 5° to 87.5° at an interval of 7.5° and are detected in nuclear emulsion plates. Forty-eight levels in the energy range from 0.000 to 3.189 MeV have been observed. Absolute differential cross-sections for these levels have been measured. The angular distributions are compared with the theoretical distorted-wave Born approximation calculations to determine L and Jπ values. The nuclear properties of 97 Mo are compared with previous experimental results and model predictions.
