Study of 74As by the 73Ge(3He,d) reaction

The energy levels of ⁷⁴As have been studied using the ⁷³Ge(³He, d)⁷⁴As reaction at an incident energy of 17 MeV. The overall energy resolution was 30 keV. Twenty-five levels in ⁷⁴As were identified up to 2.2 MeV excitation energy and angular distributions were measured in the interval $\text{3}\text{3}\text{4}\text{°}$ to $\text{86}\text{1}\text{4}\text{°}$. Spectroscopic strengths and l_p values have been extracted for many of the transitions by means of a distorted-wave analysis of the differential cross sections. A comparison with the ⁷⁵As(p, d) data suggests the presence of several unresolved doublets in ⁷⁴As.
