Description

We present results for levels in 30S (the mirror of nucleus 30S) that are used in rp reaction rate calculations. As the properties of only a few levels in 30S are known, most are determined from the Isobaric Mass Multiplet Equation and the binding energies of the T=1 analog states. Where the analog states are not known the levels are calculated with the sd-shell interactions USDA and USDB. The gamma-decay lifetimes and 29P to 30S spectroscopic factors are also calculated from USDA and USDB, and together with experimental information on the levels of excited states are used to determine the 29P(p,γ)30S reaction rates. Some new results on the 35Ar(p,γ)36K reaction are also presented.
