Abstract

The isotope Mg35 was spectroscopically studied via nucleon-removal reactions from Mg36 and Al37 secondary beams at intermediate energies. The experiment's aim was to clarify the level structure of this nucleus located in between the N=20 and 28 shell quenchings. De-excitation γ-ray energies, exclusive cross sections, and parallel momentum of outgoing Mg35 for several final states were measured and compared to structure calculations in the shell model and antisymmetrized molecular dynamics framework and the eikonal reaction calculation, further developing the level scheme of Mg35. It was found that a large fraction of the one-neutron knockout reaction goes into unbound states of Mg35, which may explain missing f-wave strength.
