Quenching of single-particle strength inferred from nucleon-removal transfer reactions on ${}^{15}$C

Y. C. Jiang, J. Chen, B. P. Kay +24

The difference in the proton and neutron separation energies ($\Delta S$) of the weakly bound ${}^{15}$C ground state is -19.86 MeV, an extreme value. Data from intermediate-energy heavy-i…
