Abstract

A 41 cm double focusing mass spectrometer has been used to measure three closely spaced doublets ${}^{12}C_{6}$ ${}^{2}H_{6}$ — ${}^{13}C_{6}$ ${}^{1}H_{6}$ , ${}^{12}C_{6}$ ${}^{1}H_{12}$ — ${}^{12}C_{6}$ ${}^{2}H_{6}$ , and ${}^{12}C_{6}$ ${}^{1}H_{12}$ — ${}^{13}C_{6}$ ${}^{1}H_{6}$ in order to determine precisely the mass and the neutron separation energy of ${}^{13}C$ . The redetermination of the deuterium mass is included to allow a comparison with earlier work in this laboratory. The neutron separation energy for ${}^{13}C$ is then employed to calculate the ground-state $γ$ -ray energy for the reaction ${}^{12}C (n, γ) {}^{13}C$ .

NUCLEAR STRUCTURE ${}^{13}C$ measured atomic mass, neutron separation energy. ${}^{2}H$ remeasured atomic mass, neutron separation energy. ${}^{12}C (n, γ) {}^{13}C$ calculated $Q_{γ}$ .
