Measurement of the total photoabsorption cross section on a proton in the energy range 600–1500 MeV at the GRAAL
The total photoabsorption cross section on a free proton was measured at the GRAAL facility in the energy range Eγ = 600−1500MeV.The large-aperture LAGRANγE detector and a liquid hydrogen target were used in the experiment performed with a back-scattered Compton gamma beam. To improve the accuracy, two alternative methods were employed. First, a subtraction method of using emptytarget measurements allowed the cross section σtot to be evaluated directly because of a low level of the electromagnetic background. Second, an algorithm for evaluating σtot on the basis of summing the dominating partial cross sections was developed. Experimental results obtained for σtot by the two methods are compared with existing data
The electronion scattering experiment ELISe at the International Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) - A conceptual design study
The electron-ion scattering experiment ELISe at the International Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR)-A conceptual design study
The electron-ion scattering experiment ELISe is part of the installations envisaged at the new experimental storage ring at the International Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) in Darmstadt, Germany. It offers an unique opportunity to use electrons as probe in investigations of the structure of exotic nuclei. The conceptual design and the scientific challenges of ELISe are presented.
