چکیده

Using the Penning trap mass spectrometer TITAN, we performed the first direct mass measurements of (20,21)Mg, isotopes that are the most proton-rich members of the A = 20 and A = 21 isospin multiplets. These measurements were possible through the use of a unique ion-guide laser ion source, a development that suppressed isobaric contamination by 6 orders of magnitude. Compared to the latest atomic mass evaluation, we find that the mass of (21)Mg is in good agreement but that the mass of (20)Mg deviates by 3 σ. These measurements reduce the uncertainties in the masses of (20,21)Mg by 15 and 22 times, respectively, resulting in a significant departure from the expected behavior of the isobaric multiplet mass equation in both the A = 20 and A = 21 multiplets. This presents a challenge to shell model calculations using either the isospin nonconserving universal sd USDA and USDB Hamiltonians or isospin nonconserving interactions based on chiral two- and three-nucleon forces.

THE FIRST EXCITED STATE IN 23A1 AND ITS INFLUENCE ON ZzMg(p,y)23A1

The excitation energy of the first excited state in 23AI was determined by the 24Mg(7Li, ‘He) reaction. The state is observed to be at 460 i 60 keV and belongs to the first excited A = 23 isospin quartet. The results are used to compute the coefficients of the isobaric multiplet mass equation. The influence of this state, a resonance in the **Mg(p, y) channel, on the reaction flow in rp-process...

Mass of ' Sc via the Ca ( ' Li , ' He ) reaction AUGUST 1988

The Q value of the ~Ca('Li, 'He) '«Sc reaction has been measured, and a value of —37.40(4) MeV was obtained. The corresponding mass excess of ' Sc is —14.14(4) MeV, which makes ' Sc proton unbound by 630(40) keV. Under the assumption of a quadratic form, the b and c coefficients of the isobaric multiplet mass equation for 39 (T = z) were obtained. They agree well with systematics and the predic...
