Abstract

The neutron-adding ( $d, p$ ) reaction was carried out in inverse kinematics to investigate the single-neutron overlap with the $^{19}$ O ground state. Eight states in $^{20}$ O were populated with measurable strength and a $Q$ -value resolution of approximately 175 keV FWHM was achieved. Cross sections, angular distributions, spectroscopic factors, and $T = 1$ diagonal two-body matrix elements were deduced. Results are discussed in terms of shell-model calculations confined to the $0 d_{5 / 2}$ , $1 s_{1 / 2}$ , and $0 d_{3 / 2}$ orbitals.
