Abstract
Yrast and near-yrast states in 30Al and 30Si have been populated to high spin with the O18+C14 fusion–evaporation reaction in inverse kinematics. The level schemes for these two isobars have been extended up to J∼9ℏ at 9.4 and 15.5 MeV, respectively. Their decay schemes indicate that cross-shell excitations dominate at high spin, where negative-parity structures exist. Positive-parity states are compared to the results of shell-model calculations using the USD, USDA, and USDB effective interactions. The negative-parity levels are compared to predictions of the WBP interaction and the recently-developed WBP-a Hamiltonian, by allowing 1p–1h excitations to fp-shell orbitals. The results suggest that single-neutron excitations to the 0f7/2 orbital play a significant role at high spin.
