Abstract: The longitudinal momentum distribution (P//) of fragments after one-proton removal from 23Al and reaction cross sections (σR) for 23,24Al on carbon target at 74A MeV have been measured simultaneously. An enhancement in σR is observed for 23Al compared with 24Al. The full width at half maximum of the P// distribution for 22Mg fragments has been determined to be 232±28 MeV/c. Analysis of P// using the Few-Body Glauber Model indicates a dominant d-wave configuration for the valence proton in the ground state of 23Al. The exotic structure in 23Al is discussed.
