A first glimpse at the shell structure beyond ⁵⁴Ca: Spectroscopy of ⁵⁵K, ⁵⁵Ca, and ⁵⁷Ca

NUCLEAR REACTIONS ¹H(⁵⁶Ca, 2p)⁵⁵K, (⁵⁶Ca, np)⁵⁵Ca, E=250 MeV/nucleon; ¹H(⁵⁸Sc, 2p)⁵⁷Ca, E not given, [secondary ⁵⁶Ca and ⁵⁸Sc beams from ⁹Be(⁷⁰Zn, X), E=345 MeV/nucleon, followed by selection of fragments of interest using the BigRIPS separator through the TOF-ΔE-Bρ method at RIBF-RIKEN facility]; measured reaction products using the by SAMURAI magnetic spectrometer, protons, Eγ, Iγ, (proton)γ-coin using thick liquid hydrogen target system MINOS and DALI2² array of 226 NaI(Tl) scintillator detectors. ⁵⁵K, ^55,57Ca; deduced levels, J, π, level half-lives, exclusive population σ, spectroscopic factors, short-lived state in ⁵⁷Ca. Comparison with state-of-the-art theoretical calculations using different approaches such as large-scale shell model (LSSM), valence-space in-medium similarity renormalization group (VS-IMSRG), full-space self-consistent Green's function (SCGF) with NNLO_sat and NN+3N(lnl) interactions.
