A Model for the 3He(\vec d, p)4He Reaction at Intermediate Energies

Polarization correlation coefficients have been measured atRIKEN for the \vec 3He(\vec d,p)4He reaction at intermediate energies. We propose a model for the (\vec d, p) reaction mechanism using the pd elastic scattering amplitude which is rigorously determined by a Faddeev calculation and using modern NN forces. Our theoretical predictions for deuteron polarization observables A_y, A_{yy}, A_{xx} and A_{xz} at E_d=140, 200 and 270 MeV agree qualitatively in shape with the experimental data for the reaction 3He(\vec d,p)4He.Comment: 6 pages, 11 figures, 1 table, reference: http://www.phys.ntu.edu.tw/english/fb16/contribution/topic4/Uesaka_Tomohiro1. ps in Contribution for the XVIth IUPAP International Conference on Few-Body Problems in Physics, (Taipei, Taiwan 6-11, March 2000

Identification of 45 New Neutron-Rich Isotopes Produced by In-Flight Fission of a 238U Beam at 345 MeV/nucleon

A search for new isotopes using in-flight fission of a 345 MeV/nucleon 238U beam has been carried out at the RI Beam Factory at the RIKEN Nishina Center. Fission fragments were analyzed and identified by using the superconducting in-flight separator BigRIPS. We observed 45 new neutron-rich isotopes: 71Mn, 73,74Fe, 76Co, 79Ni, 81,82Cu, 84,85Zn, 87Ga, 90Ge, 95Se, 98Br, 101Kr, 103Rb, 106,107Sr, 108,109Y, 111,112Zr, 114,115Nb, 115,116,117Mo, 119,120Tc, 121,122,123,124Ru, 123,124,125,126Rh, 127,128Pd, 133Cd, 138Sn, 140Sb, 143Te, 145I, 148Xe, and 152Ba

Spectroscopy of ¹⁷C via one-neutron knockout reaction

21st International Conference on Few-Body Problems in Physics, Chicago, IL, USA, May 18-22, 2015.A spectroscopic study of ¹⁷C was performed via the one-neutron knockout reaction of ¹⁸C on a carbon target at RIKEN-RIBF. Three unbound states at excitation energies of 2.66(2), 3.16(5), and 3.97(3) MeV (preliminary) were observed. The energies are compared with shell-model calculations and existing measurements to deduce their spin-parities. From the comparison, the states at 2.66(2) and 3.97(3) MeV are suggested to be 1/2⁻ and 3/2⁻, respectively. From its decay property, the state at 3.16(5) MeV is indicated to be 9/2⁺

Study of ¹⁹C by One-Neutron Knockout

21st International Conference on Few-Body Problems in Physics, Chicago, IL, USA, May 18-22, 2015.The spectroscopic structure of ¹⁹C, a prominent one-neutron halo nucleus, has been studied with a ²⁰C secondary beam at 290 MeV/nucleon and a carbon target. Neutron-unbound states populated by the one-neutron knockout reaction were investigated by means of the invariant mass method. The preliminary relative energy spectrum and parallel momentum distribution of the knockout residue, ¹⁹C∗, were reconstructed from the measured four momenta of the¹⁸C fragment, neutron, and beam. Three resonances were observed in the spectrum, which correspond to the states at Ex = 0.62(9), 1.42(10), and 2.89(10) MeV. The parallel momentum distributions for the 0.62-MeV and 2.89-MeV states suggest spin-parity assignments of 5/2⁺ and 1/2⁻, respectively. The 1.42-MeV state is in line with the reported 5/22⁺ state

Spectroscopy of 17C via one-neutron knockout reaction

A spectroscopic study of 17C was performed via the one-neutron knockout reaction of 18C on a carbon target at RIKEN-RIBF. Three unbound states at excitation energies of 2.66(2), 3.16(5), and 3.97(3) MeV (preliminary) were observed. The energies are compared with shell-model calculations and existing measurements to deduce their spin-parities. From the comparison, the states at 2.66(2) and 3.97(3) MeV are suggested to be 1/2− and 3/2−, respectively. From its decay property, the state at 3.16(5) MeV is indicated to be 9/2+

Spectroscopy of C-17 Above the Neutron Separation Energy

Spectroscopy of an unbound nucleus C-17 was performed using the SAMURAI spectrometer at RIBF of RIKEN. Six resonances were observed for the C-16+n system with relative energies of 0.52, 0.77, 1.36, 1.91, 2.22 and 3.20 MeV. The excitation energies (E-x) of the observed resonances were deduced, by taking into account the states of the C-16 fragments identified by coincident gamma rays, as E-x =(3.02), 1.51, (3.86), 2.65, (4.72) and 3.94MeV. The orbital angular momenta of the two observed states in C-17 at E-x =2.65 and 3.94 MeV were determined as 1 by comparing parallel momentum distributions with theoretical predictions.11Nsciescopu
