Abstract: The reduced transition probabilities B(E2:3/2-→7/2-2 ) and B(E2: 0+→2+1) have been measured in43S and 46Ar, respectively, using Coulomb excitation at intermediate energy. The nuclei of interest were produced by fragmentation of a 48Ca beam at GANIL. The reaction products were separated in the LISE spectrometer. After Coulomb excitation of 43S and 46Ar in a 208Pb target, the γ-rays emitted in-flight were detected by 64 BaF2 detectors of the Château de Cristal array. The preliminary values deduced for the reduced transition probabilities are in agreement with the predictions of the shell model calculations and indicate a prolate-spherical shape coexistence in the 43S nucleus. For 46Ar, a non-zero deformation was measured, the experimental results are in better agreement with Hartree-Fock calculations and suggest the persistence of the effects of the N=28 shell closure at Z=16.
