A study of the 106Pd(p,d)105Pd and 106Pd(3He,d)107Ag reactions

The ¹⁰⁶Pd(p, d)¹⁰⁵Pd reaction has been studied at 22.9 MeV with an energy resolution of 13 keV. Angular distributions permitted the assignment of l-values and the extraction of spectroscopic factors for 13 states including several previously unresolved l = 2 transitions. The ¹⁰⁶Pd(³He, d)¹⁰⁷Ag reaction has also been studied at 32.8 MeV with a resolution of 20 keV. Angular distributions were obtained, l-values assigned and spectroscopic factors extracted for 14 levels including many not observed previously in a proton transfer reaction. The level structure of ¹⁰⁵Pd and ¹⁰⁷Ag is discussed particularly in terms of quasirotational bands.
