Abstract

Background: The unexplained disagreement in the dependence of spectroscopic factors ( C 2 S exp ) on the binding energy obtained by nucleon knockout using different targets is still a puzzle that needs to be addressed. Purpose: To find an explanation of this riddle through exclusive measurements using different targets. Method: The exclusive measurements were performed by using a 17 Ne beam with an energy of 500 MeV / u incident on C and CH 2 targets. Through the standard theoretical approach, C 2 S exp were derived from the analysis of the experimental data on proton ejection from the proton halo in 17 Ne as well as from its core 15 O. Result: For the C target, proton ejection from the proton halo gave C 2 S exp about 37% smaller than for the H target. But when protons are ejected from the core of 17 Ne, C 2 S exp are identical within statistical uncertainties. Conclusion: An explanation for the difference in C 2 S exp could be the removal of both halo protons, a more important reaction pathway for the C target. The C 2 S exp values obtained by analyzing the proton ejection from the core indicate that it is not affected by the interaction with the halo protons.
