The neutron-rich unbound fluorine isotope ^{30}F_{21} has been observed for the first time by measuring its neutron decay at the SAMURAI spectrometer (RIBF, RIKEN) in the quasifree proton knockout reaction of ^{31}Ne nuclei at 235 MeV/nucleon. The mass and thus one-neutron-separation energy of ^{30}F has been determined to be S_{n}=-472±58(stat)±33(sys) keV from the measurement of its invariant-mass spectrum. The absence of a sharp drop in S_{n}(^{30}F) shows that the "magic" N=20 shell gap is not restored close to ^{28}O, which is in agreement with our shell-model calculations that predict a near degeneracy between the neutron d and fp orbitals, with the 1p_{3/2} and 1p_{1/2} orbitals becoming more bound than the 0f_{7/2} one. This degeneracy and reordering of orbitals has two potential consequences: ^{28}O behaves like a strongly superfluid nucleus with neutron pairs scattering across shells, and both ^{29,31}F appear to be good two-neutron halo-nucleus candidates.
在日本理化学研究所的放射性同位素束流工厂(RIBF)的SAMURAI光谱仪上,通过测量235 MeV/核子的31Ne核的准自由质子敲出反应中的中子衰变,首次观测到了富含中子的非束缚氟同位素30F21。通过测量其不变质量谱,确定了30F的质量以及单中子分离能为Sn = -472±58(统计)±33(系统) keV。Sn(30F)没有急剧下降,这表明在接近28O时,“幻数”N = 20的壳层间隙没有恢复,这与我们的壳模型计算结果一致,该计算预测中子d和fp轨道近乎简并,1p3/2和1p1/2轨道比0f7/2轨道更束缚。这种轨道的简并和重新排序有两个潜在后果:28O表现得像一个强超流核,中子对在壳层间散射,并且29,31F似乎都是很好的双中子晕核候选体。
