Spectroscopy of Ti and the systematic behavior of low energy octupole states in Ca and Ti isotopes
Excited states of the nucleus Ti have been studied, via both
inverse-kinematics proton scattering and one-neutron knockout from Ti by
a liquid hydrogen target, using the GRETINA -ray tracking array.
Inelastic proton-scattering cross sections and deformation lengths have been
determined. A low-lying octupole state has been tentatively identified in
Ti for the first time. A comparison of results on low-energy
octupole states in the neutron-rich Ca and Ti isotopes with the results of
Random Phase Approximation calculations demonstrates that the observed
systematic behavior of these states is unexpected.Comment: 7 pages, 8 figure
