Abstract

The level structure of Na25 and Ne22 in the high excitation energy/high spin regime was studied using γ-ray spectroscopy and Doppler shift lifetime measurements following C12(O18,αp)Na25 and C12(O18,2α)Ne22 reactions. Multiple new levels and transitions were identified in both nuclides based on γ-γ coincidence data. In Na25, evidence was found for higher-spin negative-parity states up to Iπ=13/2- resulting from neutron excitation into the pf shell, in good agreement with shell model calculations using the SDPF-MU and FSU interactions. Candidates for the yrast 7+ and 8+ levels in Ne22, consistent with calculations using the USDB interaction, were also identified.
