Emergence of the N=16 shell gap in ^{21}O
Catford identified the topic of study, wrote the experimental proposal and was co-spokesperson for the experiment. The experiment was designed and led throughout by Catford who took all major decisions and directed the postdocs and indeed the whole collaboration. It used the novel TIARA array (10.1016/j.nima.2010.01.009) that Catford designed. The first author (Fernandez-Dominguez) was a postdoc at Liverpool but supervised for this experiment by Catford. All of the analysis was guided by Catford. The theoretical interpretation was led by Catford with additional input from Fernandez-Dominguez. Shell model calculations were performed by Catford. He wrote the paper together with Fernandez-Dominguez.
