Study of the nucleus ²⁵Mg

Transfer reactions can be used as a good tool to extract spectroscopic informations about the structure of nuclei. Transfer reactions like (p, d), (d, p), (d, t), (d, ³He) and (d, α) had been frequently used to extract structure information of nuclei for several decades. One of the characteristic property of such reactions is that the recoil nucleus may be left in any of its excited states and structure information of these states can be easily extracted using these reactions as a tool. Here, we report our experimental measurement on ²⁷Al(d, α)²⁵Mg reaction at 25 MeV to study the structure of the nucleus ²⁵Mg using one deuteron (which is a bound system of 1n and 1p) pick-up reaction. The results of the present study will also be compared with previous results for the same
