Generalized loss of particle and hole neutron spectroscopic intensity in 103 Ru: a sign of significant differences between the odd nucleus and the G.S. of both even neighbors

New spectroscopic strength information extracted through the 102 Ru (d,p) 103 Ru reaction with the nuclear emulsion technique at the Sao Paulo Pelletron - Enge spectrograph, significantly extended the range and detail of previously available data. The particle strength detected, as has already been verified for the hole strength, is also considerably depleted with respect to the valence expectations, in contrast with what was obtained for 101 Ru. This fact is interpreted as a sign of significant differences between the states of 103 Ru and the G.S. of both even neighbors. (author)
