Spectroscopy of an unbound nucleus
17
C was performed using the SAMURAI spectrometer at RIBF of RIKEN. Six resonances were observed for the
16
C+n system with relative energies of 0.52, 0.77, 1.36, ...1.91, 2.22 and 3.20 MeV. The excitation energies (
E
x
) of the observed resonances were deduced, by taking into account the states of the
16
C fragments identified by coincident
γ
rays, as
E
x
=(3.02), 1.51, (3.86), 2.65, (4.72) and 3.94 MeV. The orbital angular momenta of the two observed states in
17
C at
E
x
=2.65 and 3.94 MeV were determined as 1 by comparing parallel momentum distributions with theoretical predictions.

Two prototype position sensitive parallel plate avalanche counters (PPACs) have been fabricated at the Rare Isotope Science Project (RISP). Both detectors have active areas of 10 × 10 cm

and ...utilize a stripped electrode structure, together with a delay line readout, to extract position information. Testing was conducted with an
241
Am α source, and 2-dimensional position information was obtained. A position resolution of 0.55 mm full width at half maximum (FWHM), together with a position linearity of ±55 μm over a 67-mm detection range, were measured. A time resolution of 450 ps (FWHM) was also measured.

A spectroscopic study of 17C was performed via the one-neutron knockout reaction of 18C on a carbon target at RIKEN-RIBF. Three unbound states at excitation energies of 2.66(2), 3.16(5), and 3.97(3) ...MeV (preliminary) were observed. The energies are compared with shell-model calculations and existing measurements to deduce their spin-parities. From the comparison, the states at 2.66(2) and 3.97(3) MeV are suggested to be 1/2− and 3/2−, respectively. From its decay property, the state at 3.16(5) MeV is indicated to be 9/2+.

The spectroscopic structure of 19C, a prominent one-neutron halo nucleus, has been studied with a 20C secondary beam at 290 MeV/nucleon and a carbon target. Neutron-unbound states populated by the ...one-neutron knockout reaction were investigated by means of the invariant mass method. The preliminary relative energy spectrum and parallel momentum distribution of the knockout residue, 19C*, were reconstructed from the measured four momenta of the 18C fragment, neutron, and beam. Three resonances were observed in the spectrum, which correspond to the states at Ex = 0.62(9), 1.42(10), and 2.89(10) MeV. The parallel momentum distributions for the 0.62-MeV and 2.89-MeV states suggest spin-parity assignments of 5/2+ and 1/2−, respectively. The 1.42-MeV state is in line with the reported 5/22+ state.
