“…Some development along these lines is ongoing (see, for example, Ref. [29]). However, despite the current measurement being originally designed and instrumented for a different purpose, due to the intense proton beam and pure, localized 14 N gas jet target from JENSA, decay particles corresponding to several excited levels in 12 N were observed.…”

Background Transfer reactions are a useful tool for studying nuclear structure, particularly in the regime of low level densities and strong single-particle strengths. In addition, transfer reactions can populate levels above particle decay thresholds, allowing for the possibility of studying the subsequent decays and furthering our understanding of the nuclei being probed.In particular, the decay of loosely bound nuclei such as 12 N can help inform and improve structure models.Purpose To learn about the decay of excited states in 12 N, to more generally inform nuclear structure models, particularly in the case of particle-unbound levels in low-mass systems which are within the reach of state-of-the-art ab initio calculations. Results Isotropic proton branching ratios for the p0 and p1 decay channels are calculated and decay particle spectra for the populated levels from p0, p1, and p2 decay are given.Conclusions The current data from 14 N(p,t) 12 N will help provide nuclear structure and decay information input to models in this mass region.
