Abstract

Employing48Ca as the core, the structure of51V is studied in the framework of a conventional shell-model. A pairing-plus-surface-tensor-interaction is used as the effective two-body interaction. Besides all configurations arising from 1f 7/2 and 2p 3/2 single-particle orbits, configurations of the form\((1f_{7/2} )^{n_1 } (1f_{5/2} )^{n_2 } \) wheren 1+n 2=3 (the number of extracore protons) andn 2 = 1, 2 are also considered. Low-lying energy levels are calculated and a satisfactory agreement with the experimental values is obtained. Our calculated density of states is higher than that reported previously. We also present theB(E2) values for transitions between low-lying levels and the spectroscopic factors for the50Ti (3He, d)51V reaction. The dependence of the interaction parameters on the mass number of the core nucleus is also studied.
