Abstract
One-neutron knockout reactions from neutron-rich nuclei, with and , were studied at the Fragment Separator (GSI) at high beam energies, around 700 MeV/nucleon. Structural phenomena such as the formation of one-neutron halos in odd-mass carbon isotopes () will be discussed. In addition, one-neutron knockout measurements from were carried out for the first time and demonstrate clearly the change from a to a orbital for the valence neutron, an effect that is expected above and that was also observed in and . The possibility of an anomalous structure of , due to a significant neutron admixture, will also be discussed in the light of the experimental data obtained in this work. Finally, the ground-state configuration of neutron-rich neon isotopes () was studied, providing new information in a region that is relatively close to the island of inversion.
