Study of reactions induced by 6He on 9Be

INPC 2013 – International Nuclear Physics ConferenceWe present the results of experiments using a 6He beam on a 9Be target at energies 7 − 9 times the Coulomb barrier. Angular distributions of the elastic, inelastic scattering (target breakup) and the a-particle production in the 6He+9Be collision have been analysed. Total reaction cross sections were obtained from the elastic scatteringanalyses and a considerable enhancement has been observed by comparing to stable system

Experimental study of He6+Be9 elastic scattering at low energies

New data for the He6+Be9 reaction at Elab=16.2 and 21.3 MeV have been taken and analyzed. The effect of the collective couplings to the excited states of the target has been studied by means of coupled-channels calculations, using a double-folding potential for the bare interaction between the colliding nuclei, supplemented with a phenomenological imaginary part of Woods-Saxon type. In addition, three- and four-body continuum-discretized coupled-channels calculations have been performed to investigate the effect of the projectile breakup on the elastic scattering. Both effects, the coupling to target and projectile excited states, are found to affect significantly the elastic scattering. The trivial local polarization potential extracted from the continuum-discretized coupled-channels calculations indicates that continuum couplings produce a repulsive real part and a long-range imaginary part in the projectile-target interaction. © 2011 American Physical Society.This work has been partially supported by the Spanish Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovacion´ under Projects FPA2009-07653 and PCI2006-A7-0654 and by the Spanish Consolider-Ingenio 2010 Programme CPAN (CSD2007-00042).Peer Reviewe

Study of the 6He+9Be and 7Be+9Be collisions

We present elastic scattering angular distributions of the 6He+9Be and 7Be+9Be reactions at Elab =16.2 MeV and Elab =23.7 MeV respectively. The 6He+9Be measurements have been performed at the Pelletron Laboratory of the Institute of Physics of the University of Sao Paulo, Brazil, using the Radioactive Ion Beams in Brasil (RIBRAS) facility and the 7Be+9Be system has beenmeasured at CRC Radioactive Beam Facility at Louvain-la-Neuve,Belgium. An OpticalModel analysis has been performed to obtain the nuclear potentials for both systems. A coupled-channel calculation was performed for the 7Be+9Be system taking into account the coupling to the first excited state and breakup channels of the 7Be nucleus. Keywords: Radioctive Beams.

Experiments with a double solenoid system: Measurements of the

A recent experiment has been performed in the double solenoid system Radioactive Ion Beams in Brasil (RIBRAS) by impinging a pure 6He secondary beam on a thick CH2 target to measure the 6He + p excitation function. Results of this experiment will be presented

Four-body effects in the He6+Ni58 scattering

AbstractWe present angular distributions of the He6+Ni58 scattering measured at three bombarding energies above the Coulomb barrier: Elab=12.2 MeV,16.5 MeV,and 21.7 MeV. The angular distributions have been analysed in terms of three- and four-body Continuum-Discretized Coupled-Channels calculations considering the effect of the 6He breakup. A behaviour in the cross section at large angles has been observed which was reproduced only by the four-body Continuum-Discretized Coupled-Channels calculation

Spectroscopy of high lying resonances in

We present the results of the 8Li(p,α)5He and 8Li(p,p)8Li reactions measured at the RIBRAS (Radioactive Ion Beams in Brazil) system. The experiment was realized in inverse kinematics using a thick [CH2]n polyethylene target and an incident 8Li beam, produced by RIBRAS. Using the thick target method, the complete excitation function could be measured between Ecm = 0.2 − 2.1 MeV, which includes the Gamow peak energy region. The excitation function of the 8Li(p,α)5He reaction, populating resonances between 16.888 and 19.0 MeV in 9Be, was obtained[1] and the resonances were fitted using R-matrix calculations. This study shed light on spins, parities, partial widths and isospin values of high lying resonances in 9Be. The measurement of the resonant elastic scattering 8Li(p,p)8Li populating resonances in the same energy region can constrain the resonance parameters. Preliminary results of the elastic scattering are also presented
