Abstract
Properties of nuclear levels in 151Sm have been studied by measuring angular distributions for the 152Sm(d,t)151Sm reaction and spectra at several angles for the 152Sm(3He,α)151Sm and 150Sm(d,p)151Sm reactions. The reaction products were analyzed with a magnetic spectrograph and detected with photographic emulsions. Transfer l values were deduced from the (d,t) angular distributions and from the ratios of (3He,α) and (d,t) cross sections. The (d,t), (d,p), and (3He,α) reactions on targets of 151Sm were also studied in order to learn more about the wave function of the 151Sm ground state. The low-lying positive parity levels can be described by the Nilsson model with Coriolis and ΔN = 2 interactions included. However, the properties of the low energy negative parity states could not be explained as easily. No mixture of Nilsson states was found which could simultaneously explain the single neutron transfer intensities and the Coulomb excitation probabilities from previous measurements.
