Spectroscopy of 62Ni with the 61Ni(d, p) reaction

Differential cross sections, vector and tensor analysing powers have been measured for the ⁶¹Ni(d, p) reaction at a deuteron energy of 12.3 MeV. Most of the 30 transitions observed below 8.5 MeV excitation are dominated by a single j-value, which was determined from behaviour of the analysing power data. For a number of transitions it was possible to make unambiguous j-assignment relying on the established j-dependence of the T₂₂ tensor analysing power. The deduced spectroscopic factors indicate that the full strength of neutron transfer to the ($\text{2p, 1f}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>5</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$) and $\text{1}\text{g}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>9</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$ orbits was found and seven $\text{5}\text{2}{}^{\mathrm{+}}$ transitions were located above 5.3 MeV. The separated strengths of the $\text{3}\text{2}{}^{\mathrm{?}}\text{,}\text{1}\text{2}{}^{\mathrm{?}}\text{and}\text{5}\text{2}{}^{\mathrm{?}}$ transitions are compared with shell-model calculations for the low-lying states of ⁶²Ni.     

Tensor analysing powers of (d,p) reactions on 28Si, 67Zn, 90Zr and 208Pb at 12.3 MeV

The tensor analysing powers T₂₀ and T₂₂ of(d, p) reactions leading to several states of the final nuclei ²⁹Si, ⁶⁸Zn, ⁹¹Zr and ²⁰⁹Pb were measured at 12.3 MeV deuteron beam energy. The measured tensor analysing powers together with the vector analysing power and cross-section data are compared with DWBA calculations with and without the deuteron D-state. The D-state effects and j-dependence of the tensor analysing powers are discussed. The spin transfers involved in populating the 1.08, 1.88 and 3.30 MeV states in ⁶⁸Zn in the ⁶⁷Zn(d, p)⁶⁸Zn reaction are deduced to be predominantly $\text{1}\text{2}{}^{\mathrm{?}}$. This implies an assignment for the 3.287 MeV level of ⁶⁸Zn of J^π = 2⁺.
