Structure of unstable light nuclei

The structure of light nuclei out to the drip lines and beyond up to Z = 8 is interpreted in terms of the shell model. Special emphasis is given to the underlying supermultiplet symmetry of the p-shell nuclei which form cores for neutrons and protons added in sd-shell orbits. Detailed results are given on the wave functions, widths, and Coulomb energy shifts for a wide range of non-normal parity states in the p-shell.Comment: 21 pages, to appear in Nuclear Physics

Inelastic scattering of 9Li and excitation mechanism of its first excited state

The first measurement of inelastic scattering of 9Li from deuterons at the ISAC facility is reported. The measured angular distribution for the first excited state confirms the nature of excitation to be an E2 transition. The quadrupole deformation parameter is extracted from an analysis of the angular distribution.Web of Scienc

The Impact of the Macintosh PowerPC on the Prepress Industry of the Southeastern United States

This study was designed to determine the degree of impact of the RISC-based Macintosh PowerPC on the prepress industry in the southeastern United States. Through preliminary research, it has become apparent to the author that microprocessors based upon the Reduced Instruction Set Computing (RISC) architecture have become the more efficient (i.e. faster) than computers which operate using the Complex Instruction Set Computing (CISC) microprocessor. In effect, this technology represents an unprecedented technological advance in efficiency combined with affordability in digital prepress desktop workstations. Therefore, proper implementation of the Macintosh PowerPC into prepress production systems would lead to increased efficiency and speed of the overall prepress production

SPECTROSCOPIC UTILITY OF 2-PROTON PICKUP (LI-6,B-8) REACTION

Data for the (Li6, B8) reaction on targets of B10, C12, C13, and O16 at 80 and 93 MeV are presented. Spectroscopic selectivity is observed and evidence for the dominance of spatially symmetric transfer of the two protons is shown. On the Tz=0 targets a close similarity is found to the analogous (p, t) reaction, and the C13 results indicate the location of low-lying 1p-shell states in Be11. NUCLEAR REACTIONS B10(Li6, B8), C12(Li6, B8), C13(Li6, B8), O16(Li6, B8), E=80, 93 MeV; measured σ(Ef, θ); energy levels Li8, Be10, Be11, C14; assessed importance of spatially antisymmetric transfer; comparisons with two-neutron pickup reactions leading to analog states and with two-particle spectroscopic amplitudes; resolution 300 keV. © 1976 The American Physical Society
