Abstract

The decay modes of many of the excited states of 53Cr below 4.25 MeV excitation energy have been determined by means of the 52Cr(d, pγ) 53Cr reaction. Previous tentative spin assignments of 5 2 −, 3 2 − and 9 2 + to the 1.006 MeV, 2.324 MeV and 3.715 MeV levels respectively have been confirmed. New spin assignments are the following: 5 2 or 9 2 to the 2.227 MeV level, 3 2 − to the 3.190 MeV level, 5 2 to the 3.271 MeV level and 1 2 or 3 2 to the 3.971 MeV level. Multipole mixing ratios are given for many of the observed transitions. Comparison is made with available theoretical calculations based on both the unified and shell models.
