N=16 Magicity Revealed at the Proton Drip Line through the Study of 35Ca
PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS(2023)
摘要
The last proton bound calcium isotope 35Ca has been studied for the first time, using the 37Ca(p; t)35Ca two neutron transfer reaction. The radioactive 37Ca nuclei, produced by the LISE spectrometer at GANIL, interacted with the protons of the liquid hydrogen target CRYPTA, to produce tritons t that were detected in the MUST2 detector array, in coincidence with the heavy residues Ca or Ar. The atomic mass of 35Ca and the energy of its first 3/2+ state are reported. A large N = 16 gap of 4.61(11) MeV is deduced from the mass measurement, which together with other measured properties, makes 36Ca a doubly magic nucleus. The N = 16 shell gaps in 36Ca and 24O are of similar amplitude, at both edges of the valley of stability. This feature is discussed in terms of nuclear forces involved, within state-of-the-art shell model calculations. Even though the global agreement with data is quite convincing, the calculations underestimate the size of the N = 16 gap in 36Ca by 840 keV.
