摘要
By studying the Xe-109 -> Te-105 -> Sn-101 superallowed alpha-decay chain, we observe low-lying states in Sn-101, the one-neutron system outside doubly magic Sn-100. We find that the spins of the ground state (J = 7/2) and first excited state (J = 5/2) in Sn-101 are reversed with respect to the traditional level ordering postulated for Sn-103 and the heavier tin isotopes. Through simple arguments and state-of-the-art shell-model calculations we explain this unexpected switch in terms of a transition from the single-particle regime to the collective mode in which orbital-dependent pairing correlations dominate.
