Abstract
New angular distribution data were taken at a deuteron bombarding energy of 16 MeV to locate all narrow peaks up to 15 MeV in excitation. A new shell model calculation is able to reproduce all levels in up to 11.5 MeV and is used to characterize a narrow level at 11.236 MeV and to provide a map of single particle strengths. The known levels in are then used to suggest mirrors in the lesser known nucleus . Neutron spectroscopic factors obtained from the present work and proton spectroscopic factors previously published in a study were used to determine the and single particle energies for the mirror pairs as MeV, MeV, MeV, and MeV. These results confirm the degeneracy of these orbitals and that the nuclei are where the transition of the orbital transitions from lying below the to above it. The single particle strength is estimated to be centered around 14 MeV in these nuclei.
