Level Structure ofV50

The reaction ${}_{}{}^{49}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Ti}({}_{}{}^3{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{He},d){}_{}{}^{50}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{V}$ has been studied at 15-MeV incident energy with an over-all energy resolution better than 20 keV full width at half maximum. 54 states were observed in ${}_{}{}^{50}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{V}$ up to 6-MeV excitation, and corresponding deuteron angular distributions were measured in the angular interval 7 to 50°. Spectroscopic information has been extracted for 30 of the stronger or well-isolated transitions by means of a distorted-wave analysis of the differential cross sections. The results are compared with nuclear-model predictions.
