Excited states in 40Si have been established by detecting gamma-rays coincident with inelastic scattering and nucleon removal reactions on a liquid hydrogen target. The low excitation energy, 986(5) keV, of the 2+[1] state provides evidence of a weakening in the N=28 shell closure in a neutron-rich nucleus devoid of deformation-driving proton collectivity.

We present results from recent time-of-flight nuclear mass measurements at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory at Michigan State University. We report the first mass measurements of 48Ar and 49Ar and find atomic mass excesses of -22.28(
31) MeV and -17.8(1.1) MeV, respectively. These masses provide strong evidence for the closed shell nature of neutron number N=28 in argon, which is therefore the lowest even-Z element exhibiting the N=28 closed shell. The resulting trend in binding-energy differences, which probes the strength of the N=28 shell, compares favorably with shellmodel calculations in the sd-pf shell using SDPF-U and SDPF-MU Hamiltonians.
Background: Recent accumulation of experimental data is revealing the nuclear deformation in vicinity of 42Si. This requests systematic theoretical studies to clarify more specific aspects of nuclear deformation and its causes. Purpose: The purpose o
f this study is to investigate the nature and cause of the nuclear deformations and its relation to the loss of the neutron magic number N = 28 in vicinity of 42Si. Method: The framework of antisymmetrized molecular dynamics with Gogny D1S density functional has been applied. The model assumes no spatial symmetry and can describe triaxial deformation. It also incorporates with the configuration mixing by the generator coordinate method. Results: We show that the shell effects and the loss of the magicity induce various nuclear deformations. In particular, the N = 26 and N = 30 isotones have triaxially deformed ground states. We also note that the erosion of the N = 28 magicity gradually occurs and has no definite boundaries. Conclusion: The present calculation predicts various nuclear deformations in vicinity of 42Si and suggests that the inter-band electric transitions are good measure for it. We also remark that the magicity is lost without the single-particle level inversion in the oblate deformed nuclei such as 42Si.
The single-particle structure of the $N=27$ isotones provides insights into the shell evolution of neutron-rich nuclei from the doubly-magic $^{48}$Ca toward the drip line. $^{43}$S was studied employing the one-neutron knockout reaction from a radio
active $^{44}$S beam. Using a combination of prompt and delayed $gamma$-ray spectroscopy the level structure of $^{43}$S was clarified. Momentum distributions were analyzed and allowed for spin and parity assignments. The deduced spectroscopic factors show that the $^{44}$S ground-state configuration has a strong intruder component. The results were confronted with shell model calculations using two effective interactions. General agreement was found between the calculations, but strong population of states originating from the removal of neutrons from the $2p_{3/2}$ orbital in the experiment indicates that the breakdown of the $N=28$ magic number is more rapid than the theoretical calculations suggest.
The energies of the excited states in very neutron-rich $^{42}$Si and $^{41,43}$P have been measured using in-beam $gamma$-ray spectroscopy from the fragmentation of secondary beams of $^{42,44}$S at 39 A.MeV. The low 2$^+$ energy of $^{42}$Si, 770(1
9) keV, together with the level schemes of $^{41,43}$P provide evidence for the disappearance of the Z=14 and N=28 spherical shell closures, which is ascribed mainly to the action of proton-neutron tensor forces. New shell model calculations indicate that $^{42}$Si is best described as a well deformed oblate rotor.
The FSU $spsdfp$ cross-shell interaction for the shell model was successfully fitted to a wide range of mostly intruder negative parity states of the $sd$ shell nuclei. This paper reports the application of the FSU interaction to systematically trace
out the relative positions of the effective single-particle energies of the $0f_{7/2}$ and $1p_{3/2}$ orbitals, the evolution from normally ordered low-lying states to the Island of Inversion (IoI), and the behavior of a wide range of excited states with a $0f_{7/2}$ proton and neutron coupled to maximum spin of $7 hbar$. Above a proton number of about 13 the $0f_{7/2}$ orbital lies below that of $1p_{3/2}$, which is considered normal ordering, but systematically at $Z = 10$ to $12$ the orbitals cross. The calculations reproduce well the 2p2h - 0p0h inversion in the configurations of nuclei inside the IoI, they reproduce the absolute binding energies and the transition to normal ordering as the proton number approaches that of the neutrons. The important role of $1p_{3/2}$ neutron pairs in the IoI is also demonstrated. The calculations account well for the energies of the fully aligned states with 0, 1, or 2 individual $sd$ nucleon aligned in spin with the aligned $pi 0f_{7/2}$ - $ u 0f_{7/2}$ pair and reproduce well their systematic variation with $A$ and number of aligned $sd$ nucleons. The results presented in this paper give hope for the predictive power of the FSU interaction for more exotic nuclei to be explored in near future.
