Abstract
The (d, p) reaction was measured with the radioactive ion beams of 126Sn and 128Sn in inverse kinematics at the Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, utilizing the Super ORRUBA silicon detector array. Angular distributions of reaction protons were measured for several states in 127Sn and 129Sn to determine angular momentum transfers and deduce spectroscopic factors. Such information is critical for calculating direct (n,γ) cross sections for the r-process as well as for constraining shell model parameters in the A≈130 region. Combined with previous experiments on 130Sn and 132Sn, these results will provide a complete set of (d, p) reaction data on even tin isotopes between stable 124Sn and doubly-magic 132Sn.
