Sn were populated via the
Sn(d,t) reaction at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The triton angular distributions were compared to DWBA calculations and revealed spectroscopic factors compatible with a single-hole nature of the states populated. The data permit to determine the spin-orbit splitting of the strongly bound
and
neutron orbits below the shell gap, which was compared to the splitting of the weakly bound 3
and 2
orbits above the gap. The comparison revealed a smaller energy splitting of the 3
orbits. All splittings were reproduced using Woods-Saxon calculations, and the lower splitting of the 3
orbits was explained to arise from the large radial extent of the wavefunction and small value of the amplitude at the surface. This result is important to understand at a fundamental level the spin-orbit interaction, and its effects on neutron-rich nuclei.

Knowledge of single-particle energies in the vicinity of exotic doubly-magic nuclei is of critical importance to understand evolution of nuclear structure. In the present work, the
Sn(d,t)
Sn reaction (Q=-1.055 MeV) was studied in inverse kinematics at HRIBF of Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The
Sn ISOL beam was post-accelerated to an energy of 4.39 MeV/u using the ORNL HRIBF accelerator. The beam (average intensity of
1.2e4 pps) impinged on a
250
g/cm
deuterated polyethylene target, for approximately 4 days. Ejected tritons were detected using the Super ORRUBA array of segmented Si telescopes. Low-lying states in
Sn were populated in the experiment. Preliminary results will be shown.
