Hole strengths and spreading widths observed in ⁹²Mo(p, d)⁹¹Mo reaction at 65 Me V

Differential cross sections and analyzing powers have been measured for the ⁹²Mo(p, d)⁹¹Mo reaction with a polarized proton beam of 65 MeV incident energy for investigating the level structure of ⁹¹Mo up to 10 MeV. The data analysis with the standard DWBA theory provides transferred angular momenta lj values and spectroscopic factors for 42 transitions to the single-hole 1g _{9 2}, 2p _{1 2}, 2p _{3 2}, 1f _{5 2} and 1f _{7 2} st analog states. The spreading widths are deduced and compared with theoretical predictions for discussing the damping mechanism of the single-hole states.
