Levels inNd144from theNd143(d,p)and theNd146(p,t)reactions

The energy levels in ${}_{}{}^{144}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Nd}$ have been studied by means of the ${}_{}{}^{143}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Nd}\mathrm{}(d,p)\mathrm{}$ reaction at $E_d=25$ MeV and the ${}_{}{}^{146}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Nd}\mathrm{}(p,t)\mathrm{}$ reaction at $E_p=31$ MeV. Angular distributions, values for the transferred angular momenta, and spectroscopic and enhancement factors based on distorted-wave Born approximation calculations have been obtained for $\approx 30$ states. The ($d,p$) spectroscopic strengths have been compared with the results of a calculation based on a two-particle core coupling model.
