(d,p) and (d,t) Studies of the Actinide Elements. II.Cm243,Cm245,Cm247, andCm249

Abstract
Properties of states in Cm243, Cm245, Cm247, and Cm249 were determined by (d,p) and (d,t) reactions on targets of Cm244, Cm246, and Cm248. Assignments of one-quasiparticle states are made. Single-particle level schemes are extracted from the data by use of a pairing calculation. The extracted single-particle level schemes are compared with single-particle calculations, which include β4 and β6 deformations. Equilibrium values of β2, β4, and β6 are estimated for the odd-mass Cm isotopes.
