Direct verification of the coexistence model for 40Ca: Electroexcitation of the second monopole state

  • 1. University of Lowell, Lowell, Massachusetts 01854

Description

Results of the first measurements of the form factors for the electroexcitation of the O2+ state at 3.352 MeV in 40Ca in the momentum-transfer region from 0.3 to 2.7 fm-1 are described. It is shown that the model-independent densities obtained from these measurements provide a sensitive test of the nuclear structure models of 40Ca. The essential premise of the coexistence model of Gerace and Green is verified
