Single-particle structure at N=29: The structure of 47Ar and first spectroscopy of 45S

Comprehensive spectroscopy of the N = 29 nucleus 47Ar is presented, based on two complemen-tary direct reaction mechanisms: one-neutron pickup onto 46Ar projectiles and one-proton removal from the 1− ground state of 48K. The results are compared to shell-model calculations that use the state-of-the-art SDPF-U and SDPF-MU effective interactions. Also, from the 9Be(46Cl,45S+γ)X one-proton removal reaction, we report the first γ-ray transitions observed from 45S. Using compar-isons with shell-model calculations, and from the observed intensities and energy sums, we propose a first tentative level scheme for 45S.
