Abstract
The energy of the first excited state in the neutron-rich nucleus has been established via in-beam γ-ray spectroscopy following proton removal. This energy value completes the systematics of the level spacing in odd-mass K, Cl, and P isotopes for . The results are discussed in the framework of shell-model calculations in the model space. The contribution of the central, spin-orbit, and tensor components is discussed from a calculation based on a proton single-hole spectrum from -matrix and meson exchange potentials. A composite model for the proton single-particle energy shift is presented.
