Spectroscopy of states in ¹³⁶Ba using the ¹³⁸Ba (p, t) reaction

NUCLEAR REACTIONS ¹³⁸Ba(p, t), E=23 MeV; measured outgoing triton spectra, E(t), I(t), differential σ(θ) distributions using Q3D magnetic spectrometer at MLL-Munich tandem accelerator. DWBA analysis of σ(θ) data using DWUCK4 code using global proton optical model parameters. ¹³⁶Ba; deduced levels, J, π. Comparison of measured level densities with shell model calculations, and with previous experimental data in ENSDF database. Discussed importance of ¹³⁶Ba nuclear structure in the context of ¹³⁶Xe double beta decay.
