| Sumario: | One-neutron knockout reactions from neutron-rich nuclei, with Z=6-13 and N=8-22, were studied at the Fragment Separator (GSI) at high beam energies, around 700 MeV/nucleon. Structural phenomena such as the formation of one-neutron halos in odd-mass carbon isotopes (C15,17,19) will be discussed. In addition, one-neutron knockout measurements from N22 were carried out for the first time and demonstrate clearly the change from a 0d5/2 to a 1s1/2 orbital for the valence neutron, an effect that is expected above N=14 and that was also observed in O23 and F24. The possibility of an anomalous structure of F26, due to a significant 1s1/2 neutron admixture, will also be discussed in the light of the experimental data obtained in this work. Finally, the ground-state configuration of neutron-rich neon isotopes (Ne24-28) was studied, providing new information in a region that is relatively close to the island of inversion. © 2010 The American Physical Society.
