Abstract

Shell-model studies on the N = 14 and 16 shell closures in neutron-rich Be, C, O and Ne isotopes are presented. We calculate, with the WBT interaction, the excited states in these nuclei. The calculations agree with recent experiment data. Excited energies and B(E2) values are displayed to discuss the shell closures. Our results support the N = 16 shell closure in these isotopes, while indicating a disappearance of N = 14 shell closure in Be and C isotopes.
