Abstract

A multi-channel algebraic scattering (MCAS) method has been used to obtain spectra of a number of light-mass nuclei, which are treated as a two-cluster system, here specifically a nucleon plus nucleus. To date, collective models have been used to specify the interactions between the nucleon and low-lying states of the nucleus that form the compound. For the case of the carbon isotopes, these studies have been complemented by sufficiently complex and complete shell-model calculations. Comparisons with the multi-ħω shell-model results provide new insights into the validity of those from MCAS.

Highlights

  • multi-channel algebraic scattering (MCAS) is a multichannel algebraic scattering method [1] which has been used to obtain spectra of a number of light-mass nuclei, treating them as two-cluster systems, a nucleon plus nucleus in the cases discussed

  • Collective models have been used to specify the interactions between the nucleon and low-lying states of the nucleus that form the compound

  • As well as fitting the two known resonances in 15 F, narrow resonances above those were predicted by the MCAS calculations

Summary

Introduction

MCAS is a multichannel algebraic scattering method [1] which has been used to obtain spectra of a number of light-mass nuclei, treating them as two-cluster systems, a nucleon plus nucleus in the cases discussed . Results of MCAS calculations on the mirror system 15 C (as n + 14 C) and 15 F (as p + 14 O). For the case of the carbon isotopes, these studies have been complemented by sufficiently complex and complete shell-model (SM) calculations.
