Abstract
Background: The band structure of the negative-parity states of has not yet been clarified. The , , and bands have been suggested, but the assignments have been inconsistent between experiments and theories.
Purpose: Negative-parity states of are investigated by microscopic structure and reaction calculations via proton and inelastic scattering to clarify the band assignment for the observed negative-parity spectra.
Method: The structure of was calculated using the antisymmetrized molecular dynamics (AMD). Proton and inelastic reactions were calculated using microscopic coupled-channel (MCC) calculations by folding the Melbourne -matrix interaction with the AMD densities of .
Results: The member states of the , , , , and bands of were obtained through the AMD result. In the results for proton and elastic and inelastic cross sections, reasonable agreements were obtained with existing data, except in the case of the state.
Conclusions: The state of the band and the and states of the bands were assigned to the (7.62 MeV), (7.56 MeV), and (8.36 MeV) states, respectively. The present AMD calculation is the first microscopic structure calculation to reproduce the energy ordering of the , , and bands of .
