General Comments:

This nucleus is at the edge of a small set of nuclei belonging to the "island of inversion " where the ground state is deformed from a spherical shell, investigations in 2005Ma86 show that it does not fall within this group

Mass measurements: 2015Kw01

Other measurements:

2021He04: measured hyperfine spectra using the COLLAPS collinear laser spectroscopy beam line at ISOLDE-CERN. Deduced magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole moments.

2016He09: measured β-detected nuclear quadrupole resonance (β-NQR) spectra using the β-NRM/NQR setup at LISE-GANIL. Deduced electric quadrupole moment.

2012Kw02: production cross section measurement in fragmentation of 40Ar beam at 140 MeV/nucleon with 9Be, Ni and 181Ta targets by time-of-flight and energy loss measurements at NSCL facility

2012Zh06: 9Be(40Ar,X) E=57 MeV/nucleon, measured fragment yield, momentum distributions at HIRFL facility; deduced target dependence on production cross section

2009De25: measured electric quadrupole moment using β-NQR method with fragmentation-induced spin-polarized beam at LISE-GANIL facility

Theoretical calculations: 24 primary references for structure and three for decay characteristics retrieved from the NSR database (www.nndc.bnl.gov/nsr/) are listed under ’document records’.

Q-value: S(2n)=12885.6 23, S(2p)=32209 8, Q(β-n)=1410.9 22 (2021Wa16)

Measured (small) quadrupole moment of the ground state (2021He04,2016He09,2009De25,2009Na03) suggests that 31Al lies outside the "island of inversion " with a dominant sd-shell configuration, and with a possible small admixture of 2p-2h neutron states.
