Abstract
The collectivity of the odd-mass nucleus was explored via intermediate-energy Coulomb excitation using a powerful combination of particle and -ray spectroscopy. A -ray at 2879(18) keV was observed and is interpreted to deexcite a member of the core-coupled quintuplet at the same energy. By similarity with the mirror nucleus , transition probabilities were calculated assuming and for this state. Both assumptions lead to a transition strength higher than predicted by a large-scale shell-model calculation using the GXPF1 effective interaction and exceed the value predicted within a simple weak-coupling approach.
