Exclusive cross sections and momentum distributions have been measured for quasifree one-neutron knockout reactions from a $^{54}\mathrm{Ca}$ beam striking on liquid hydrogen target at $\ensuremath{\sim}200\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{MeV}/u$. A significantly larger section to the ${p}_{3/2}$ state compared ${f}_{5/2}$ observed in excitation of $^{53}\mathrm{Ca}$ provides direct evidence nature $N=34$ shell closure. This finding corroborates arising new closure neutron-rich calcium isotopes. The...
We report on the first γ-ray spectroscopy of 51,53K produced via 52,54Ca(p,2p) reactions at ∼250 MeV/nucleon. Unambiguous final-state angular-momentum assignments were achieved for beam intensities down to few particles per second by using a new technique based reaction vertex tracking combined with thick liquid-hydrogen target. Through and exclusive parallel momentum distribution analysis, 3/2+ ground states 1/2+ excited in established quantifying natural ordering 1d3/2 2s1/2 proton-hole...
Gamma decays were observed in $^{56}$Ca and $^{58}$Ca following quasi-free one-proton knockout reactions from $^{57,59}$Sc beams at $\approx 200$ MeV/nucleon. For $^{56}$Ca, a $\gamma$ ray transition was measured to be 1456(12) keV, while for an indication 1115(34) keV. Both transitions tentatively assigned as the $2^+_1 \rightarrow 0^+_{gs}$ decays, compared results ab initio conventional shell-model approaches. A calculation wide model space with marginally modified effective...
Background: The proton-induced deuteron knockout reaction, ($p,pd$), is one of the interests in studies probing deuteron-like $p\text{\ensuremath{-}}n$ correlation nuclei. According to a recent study inclusive deuteron-induced $(d,{d}^{\ensuremath{'}}x)$, refraction effect has significant on elementary process, nucleon-deuteron ($N\text{\ensuremath{-}}d$) binary scattering inside nucleus, reaction. In paper, it shown that proper treatment local $N\text{\ensuremath{-}}d$ relative momentum...
Background: Deuteron-induced one-neutron transfer reactions have been used to extract single-particle properties of nuclei, and the adiabatic (AD) approximation is often simply treat deuteron breakup states.Purpose: The primary goal examine validity AD for $(d,p)$ reaction systematically. We clarify also role closed channels ignored in description reactions.Methods: calculate cross sections with continuum-discretized coupled-channels method (CDCC) 128 systems compare results those obtained...
An isoscalar $pn$ pair is expected to emerge in nuclei that have similar proton and neutron numbers it may be a candidate for deuteron ``cluster.'' There is, however, no experimental evidence it. The purpose of this paper construct new reaction model the ($p,pd$) including breakup elementary process reformation by final-state interactions (FSIs). How these processes contribute observables investigated. distorted wave impulse approximation extended twofold. ($p,pd$), i.e., $p$-$d$ elastic...
The calcium isotopes are an ideal system to investigate the evolution of shell structure and magic numbers. Although properties surface nucleons in have been well studied, probing deeply bound remains a challenge.

The effective polarization of the residual nucleus in proton-induced $\ensuremath{\alpha}$ knockout reaction is investigated within distorted wave impulse approximation framework. strong absorption emitted particle results selectivity on position depending third component single-particle orbital angular momentum inside a nucleus, hence spin direction residue. This caused by mechanism that similar to Maris effect, proton reactions. However, as distinct feature process, degrees freedom...

The role of the short-range part (repulsive core) proton-neutron ($pn$) potential in deuteron elastic breakup processes is investigated. A simplified one-range Gaussian and Argonne V4' (AV4') central are adopted continuum-discretized coupled-channels (CDCC) method. cross sections calculated with these two potentials compared. repulsive core found not to affect at energies from 40 MeV 1 GeV. To understand this result, an analysis peripherality concerning $p$-$n$ relative coordinate performed....
