Structure of17Ne by the three-neutron pick-up (3He,6He) reaction

The nuclear structure of17Ne has been studied by the20Ne(3He,6He)17Ne reaction at 70 MeV. Fifteen levels were identified, and the angular distributions have been measured for 9 levels. The observed transferred angular momentum dependence of the angular distributions enabled clear spin-parity assignment. The extensive completion of T=3/2 quartet in mass A =17 have been obtained for the first time. The present data will provide a chance to study the structure of A=17 system in detail.
