The neutron-rich argon isotope 43Ar has been studied by quasielastic and inelastic proton scattering performed in inverse kinematics. The measured inelastic angular distribution for the second excited state is in good agreement with an L = 2 transition. Assuming this transition to be E2, yields a β2 value for this state of 0.25±0.03 when compared with distorted-wave Born approximation calculations. This value is comparable to the one reported for the stable isotope 40Ar. Moreover it is similar to those measured by Coulomb excitation for the neighboring even-even isotopes 42Ar and 44Ar indicating that the structure of the argon isotopes is stable as a function of neutron number.
