Abstract
The structure of has been investigated by inelastic scattering to states above the breakup threshold using the reaction at . Excited states in were observed at and . No evidence was observed for the population of the member of the ground-state band of indicating the shell-model-like structure of the ground state. In addition, the decay of , , and , populated in the two-neutron, proton pickup, breakup and pickup reactions, was reconstructed through the detection of coincident , , and particles. Cross sections for the formation of the , , , and were also deduced. Contrary to expectations, the two-neutron removal results in the production of predominantly in the first excited state. This suggests that dynamical excitations play an important role in the neutron removal process.
