Physics Issues addressed by transfer and knockout

evolution and changes in shell structure, away from stability:

• identify single particle states, by measuring Jp or even just ? as well as possible

• identify if they pure or are mixed with states of more complicated parentage,

• characterise the degree of purity (of pure single particle nature)

• measure the mixing/spreading of the simple wavefunction across states,

• in regions of deformation, identify Nilsson orbitals from “fingerprints” of s.p. content

structure of halo nuclei and light near-drip-line neutron rich nuclei

The single particle

levels for an exotic

neutron-rich nucleus

are different in energy

and relative spacings

compared to those of

an exotic proton-rich

nucleus…

this is of interest in

itself and leads to new

structure properties like

altered collectivity…

and also requires to be

known, to enable shell

model calculations
