0F(7 2) PROTON-TRANSFER ON MN-55

Proton pickup data have been obtained through the Mn-55(d,He-3)Cr-54 ( E(d) = 46 MeV) reaction in the 6 degrees-30 degrees angular range usin g a magnetic spectrometer with a resolution of similar to 40 keV full width at half maximum. Spectroscopic factors associated with transitio ns to 24 Cr-54 final states (E less than or equal to 6.104 MeV) were determined from local, zero-range distorted-wave Born approximation an alyses of the measured angular distributions allowing for l = 0, 1, 2, and 3 transfer. A spin-dependent sum-rule analysis of the 0f(7/2) pro ton transfer data has been performed using complementary stripping dat a from a study of the Mn-55(alpha,t) Fe-56 reaction. The 0f(7/2) proto n transfer data have also been compared to results from a 0f1p shell-m odel calculation based on a new effective interaction for A = 41-66 nu clei.
