20 28 20 8 8 16 Neutron Knockout from Intermediate Energy Beams of 26,28Ne • Direct quantitative observation of negative parity intruder configuration in 28Ne. • First observation of the level structure of 27Ne. Z 28Ne N
KNOCKOUT REACTION IN INVERSE KINEMATICS AT ENERGIES OF 60-100 MeV/nucleon E A A-1 kA-1 • Observables: • Cross section of nucleon-removal reaction • Population fraction to individual excited states by detection of coincident transition gamma rays • Longitudinal momentum distribution of reaction residue • Three-body reaction theory based on Sudden and Eikonal approximations: • Core-target and nucleon-target S-matrices calculated from Glauber theory • Core-nucleon interaction modeled by a two-body Wood-Saxon potential
