Viscosity and fission time scale of^{156}Dy

In the fusion-fission reaction Ar-40+Cd-116-->Dy-156-->fission, performed at beam energies E(b) = 216 MeV and 238 MeV, gamma rays were measured in coincidence with fission fragments. The gamma-ray spectra are interpreted using a modified version of the statistical-model code CASCADE. From a comparison of the experimental and calculated spectra it is deduced that the nuclear viscosity is in the range 0.01 <gamma <4. The extracted fission time scale is of the order of 10(-19) s

Spin observables in deuteron-proton radiative capture at intermediate energies

A radiative deuteron-proton capture experiment was carried out at KVI using polarized-deuteron beams at incident energies of 55, 66.5, and 90 MeV/nucleon. Vector and tensor-analyzing powers were obtained for a large angular range. The results are interpreted with the help of Faddeev calculations, which are based on modern two- and three-nucleon potentials. Our data are described well by the calculations, and disagree significantly with the observed tensor anomaly at RCNP.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figures, submitted to PL

Dynamical effects in proton-proton bremsstrahlung for non-coplanar geometries

The proton-proton bremsstrahlung process, including both coplanar and non-coplanar kinematics, has been measured with polarized protons of 190 MeV. High-precision cross sections and analyzing powers have been obtained. Cross sections as a function of non-coplanarity angle are presented and show large variations of dynamical origin. Non-coplanar analyzing powers have been measured for the first time and are compared to theoretical predictions. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved
