RbumC. - La structure de 15N a 6te Btudiee par des reactions de transfert de proton, triton et alpha induites par ions lourds. Les reactions de transfert A plusieurs nuclCons donnent quelques indications sur les configurations (sd)-l@ 1 6 0 b a n d e rotat. et (p3/z)-I @ 1 6 0 b a n d e rotat. des etats de parite respectivement positive et negative.

Abstract. - The structure of IsN was investigated by heavy ion induced proton-, triton- and alpha-transfer reactions. The multi-nucleon transfer reactions give some indication to explain the observed positive and negative parity states as having the configuration (sd)-1 @ 16Or,t. band and ( ~ 3 / 2 ) - ~ @ 1 6 0 r o t . band respectively.

In recent time 1 5was the subject of many investi- ~

gations, experimental and theoretical ones [I], [2], [3].

However, until now only the structure of some low lying states could be sufficiently explained [2], [3].

The configurations of states above 11 MeV are not yet known. Many of them are expected to have complicated many-particle many-hole structure and therefore should be experimentally best investigated by heavy ion induced transfer reactions. Thus we studied : the proton-transfer 11B(160, 1sN)12C, the alpha-transfer I1B(l60, 12C)15N and the triton- transfer 12C(19F, l60)I5N at incident energies between 27 and 70 MeV. At the high bombarding energies states in 5N up to about 16 MeV excitation energy are observed.

The experiments were performed at the Heidelberg MP tandem van de Graaff accelerator. The reaction products were analyzed by the conventional AEIE tech- nique, the AE detector being a gas filled proportional counter, the E detector a silicon surface barrier counter.

The total energy resolution in the experiments was 150-200 keV for light reaction products as Li-C and about 400 keV for heavy elements as Ne.

Figure I shows spectra of the investigated reactions.

As expected, in the proton-transfer only the two proton hole states in the 160-ground state of I5N are populated. They are the ground state (Jn = 112-) and the state a t 6.32 MeV (Jn = 312-) with the configuration (pl,,)-I O 160,, and (p3/2)-' 0 I6OgS res- pectively. The angular distributions of these transitions were described by DWBA calculations [4] following the method of Buttle and Goldfarb 151 (Fig. 2).

The parameters of the calculations were obtained by the optical model analysis of the elastic scattering data 161. The extracted spectroscopic factors are in good agreement with those obtained by conventional reactions and shell model considerations and are inde- pendent of the incident energy [4].

positive parity states around 7, 8, 10 MeV and very selectively at higher energies. An extremely strong transition is observed to the two states a t 5.28 MeV (1" = 512') and 5.31 MeV (J" = 112') or one of them. Although the transferred I-value corresponding to these two states is different, the angular distributions give no indication which state is really populated.

At the higher energies a difference between the I = 0 and I = 2 angular distribution is expected from calcu- lations to occur at cm angles around 5O-lo0, which, however, cannot be measured. This is demonstrated in figure 3, where angular distributions are shown together with DWBA calculations in the fixed range model [7].

The observed states below 11 MeV are known to have the structure 1-p-2 h and 3 p-4 h [2], [3] and may be interpreted by the weak coupling of a (sd)-hole to the 4 p-4 h and 2 p-2 h components of the first rotatio- nal band in 160. As to the wave functions given by

Zuker [2] the 5.31 MeV state has the structure s-I @ 1 6 ~ 6 . 0 6 1 0 + . On the other hand 1606.,, corres- ponds to the ''Ne,, coupled to four holes inTthe pIl2-shell. The I9Fg, has the main configuration s-' C3'ONe,,. So the 1/2+ state of 15N at 5.31 MeV corresponds exactly to the 19F-ground state (see left side of Fig. 4).

These considerations lead to the conclusion that at 5.3 MeV mainly the 1/2+ state is excited. The very high cross section is then due to the fact that the initial and final configurations are identical [8].

Similar to the positive parity states some of the negative parity states should have the configuration p,/,-hole (or if possible p,,,) coupled weakly to the

160 rotational band, giving states with spin and parity 112-

the alpha-transfer is the strong population of highly excited states above 9 MeV. Two groups may be distinguished, one around 11 MeV consisting of five states, one around 15 MeV consisting of four states.

The first strongly excited state at 9.16 MeV (J" = 312-) should therefore have a large component

The investigated heavy ion induced transfer reactions give some indication how to explain the structure of the observed states in 1 5 (summary in Fig. ~ 4).

However, the experimental energy resolution is insufficient for more detailed information. More complicated experimental techniques as magnetic and time of flight methods should be used for further experiments. Nevertheless there are several reasons why to prefer heavy ion induced transfer reactions to Li induced reactions, which show less experimental difficulties. In heavy ion induced transfer reactions :

(1) the contributions from compound nuclear reactions are negligible,

(2) there is no break up of the projectile because of the stronger binding energies ; both effects may disturb Li induced reactions,

(3) special configurations of the transferred nucleons in the final nucleus may be selected by the choice of the projectile,

(4) there is no limitation in the number of trans- ferred nucleons for the study of even more complicated states.
