Previous experiments

1985 Berkeley, J. Aystö et al., PRL 55 (1985) 138440Ca(3He,4n) reaction, helium-jet techniquesmall angle proton-proton coincidenceswith E-E silicon telescope

- only -2p measurement (sequential)

- first decay scheme

1999 GANIL, W. Trinder et al., PLB 459 (1999) 6740Ca fragmentation, LISE implantation / decay experimentgamma: 3 Ge (70%) and 2 NaI detectors

- 19 -p() transitions B(GT) (weaker quenching than sd shell)

- no -

- no -2p to excited state in 33Cl

logft(IAS) = 3.09T1/2 = 50 ± 30 msm = 4463 ± 60 keV (IMME)

logft(IAS) = 4.1 missed strength ?T1/2 = 25.7 ± 0.2 msm = 4530 ± 66 keV (IMME)
