Description

The highly proton-rich nucleus 24Si has been produced via the 24Mg(3He,3n) reaction. The half-life of 24Si was found to be 103(42) ms, and the energy of the protons de-exciting the T=2 state in the daughter, 24Al, has been measured as 3912.7(37) keV. From detailed consideration of masses in the A=24 isobaric quintet (recently completed), it is concluded that this quintet constitutes a test of the isobaric multiplet mass equation as precise as the mass 9 quartet and that there is, in this case, no significant departure from the equation
