Abstract

The strength functions of the π f5/2, π p3/2 and π f7/2 orbitals in neutron-rich 71Cu were obtained in a 72Zn(d,3He)71Cu proton pick-up reaction in inverse kinematics using a radioactive beam of 72Zn at 38 MeV/u. A dedicated set-up was developed to overcome the experimental challenges posed by the low cross section of the reaction and the low energy of the outgoing 3He particles. The excitationenergy spectrum was reconstructed and spectroscopic factors were obtained after analysis of the angular distributions with the finite-range Distorted-Wave Born Approximation (DWBA). The results show that unlike for the π f5/2 orbital and contrary to earlier interpretation, the π f7/2 single-particle strength distribution is not appreciably affected by the addition of neutrons beyond N = 40
