Abstract

Detailed spectroscopic measurements of excited states in Cr-50 and Zn-62 were performed using 24-MeV (p, t) transfer reactions on Cr-52 and Zn-64, respectively. In total, 45 states in Cr-50 and 67 states in Zn-62 were observed up to excitation energies of 5.5 MeV, including several previously unobserved states. These experimental results are compared to ab-initio shell-model calculations using chiral effective field theory with the valence-space in-medium similarity renormalization group method. This comparison demonstrates good agreement in the level orderings with these new theoretical methods, albeit with a slight overbinding in the calculations. This work is part of a continued push to benchmark ab-initio theoretical techniques to nuclear-structure data in 0(+) -> 0(+) superallowed Fermi beta-decay systems.
