Abstract

We have studied the $^{15}\mathrm{C}(d,p)^{16}\mathrm{C}$ reaction in inverse kinematics using the Helical Orbit Spectrometer at Argonne National Laboratory. Prior studies of electromagnetic-transition rates in $^{16}\mathrm{C}$ suggested an exotic decoupling of the valence neutrons from the core in that nucleus. Neutron-adding spectroscopic factors give a different probe of the wave functions of the relevant states in $^{16}\mathrm{C}$. Shell-model calculations reproduce both the present transfer data and the previously measured transition rates, suggesting that $^{16}\mathrm{C}$ may be described without invoking very exotic phenomena.
