On Single Particle Energies and Nuclear g Factors

Abstract

If we add one neutron to doubly magic ^{100}Sn, we can associate the low lying states in^{101} Sn with single particle states.The the J=5/2^{+} and J= 7/2^{+} states are identified as d_{5/2}and g_{7/2}states respectively...They are separated by an energy of 0.18 MeV.Unfortunately there is a disputeas to the ordering of these states.We examine how the 2 scenarios-- J=5/2^{+} ground state or J=7/2^{+}ground state-- affect spectra of higher Sn isotopes .
