Description

The study of proton unbound states in 32Cl is important both in the context of nuclear structure and astrophysics. In this presentation we discuss the results from a recent experiment study of such states using the 32S(3He,t) reaction and the K600 spectrometer at iThemba LABS. Unbound protons from recoiling 32Cl nuclei were detected using the CAKE silicon array placed upstream of the target, while an attempt was made to detect weak gamma-rays from the relevant states using an array of NaI detectors.
