Abstract
The reactions93Nb(p, p)93Nb,93Nb(p, n)93Mo, and93Nb(p, p′) through isobaric analog resonances in94Mo have been used to study the structure of low-lying93Nb states, specifically the degree to which these states can be described as single protons coupled to the core states of92Zr. Excitation curves were obtained from 5.8 to 7.6 MeV incident proton energy, for eight states in93Nb. Results of this work are compared to results from Coulomb excitation studies,93Nb(n, n′γ),93Nb(d,p),92Zr(3He,d),94Mo(d,3He) and other related work.
