Mass measurements: 2003Bl17, 2001He29 (also 2002He13, 2001He37). Mass excess=-9384.08 44 (2003Bl17)

2023Zh10: re-analyzed mass excess of 33Ar based on mass measurements of certain nuclides.

2012Sh21: 9Be(36Ca,X) E=70 MeV/nucleon at NSCL. Measured σ

2002Oz03: C(33Ar,X) E=950 MeV/nucleon, measured cross section, deduced effective radius

2000Ga61: measured positron-neutrino correlations using 33Ar beam at ISOLDE, CERN facility.

2000Ge20: hyperfine structure and charge radii measurements at ISOLDE, CERN facility

Structure calculations:

2022St03: calculated B(E2)

2004Ge02: calculated binding energy, radius, deformation parameter

Q-value: ΔQ(β-)=200 (syst,2021Wa16)

Q-value: S(2n)=36850 200 (syst), S(2p)=4919.7 5, Q(ε)=11619.0 6, Q(εp)=9342.3 4 (2021Wa16)

E(level): From a least-squares fit to γ-ray energies

Jπ(level): Assignments for excited levels are proposed by 2004Cl02 in (34Ar,33Arγ) based on their identification as mirror analog states of 33P, with the parentheses added by the evaluators. Exceptions are noted.
