States of ${}^{54}V$ and ${}^{58}{Mn}$

The

{}^{54}{Cr} (t, {}^{3}{He}) {}^{54}V

and

{}^{58}{Fe} (t, {}^{3}{He}) {}^{58}{Mn}

reactions have been used to study the masses and the low-lying excited states of

{}^{54}V

and

{}^{58}{Mn}

, using 23 MeV tritons and a quadrupole-dipole-dipole-dipole spectrometer. The mass excess of

{}^{54}V

is -49 891(15) keV. At least 19 excited states of

{}^{54}V

with

E_{x} < 2.5

MeV have been observed. The mass excess of

{}^{58}{Mn}

is -55 832(30) keV, assuming that an (unresolved) isomeric state exists at

E_{x} = 30 \pm 10

keV.

β

decay evidence from other work, together with these results, suggests that these two states have

J^{π} = 3^{+} and 0^{+}

. Sixteen other states of

{}^{58}{Mn}

have been observed with

E_{x} < 1.9

MeV.
