Energy Dependence of Total Cross Sections for Reactions with 4, 6he, 6, 7, 9li Nuclei

The paper presents the results of measurement of the total cross sections for reactions 4,6He + Si and 6,7,9Li + Si in the beam energy range 5−50 A⋅MeV. The enhancements of the total cross sections for reaction 6He + Si compared with reaction 4He + Si, and 9Li + Si compared with reactions 6,7Li + Si have been observed. The performed microscopic analysis of total cross sections for reactions 6He + Si and 9Li + Si based on numerical solution of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for external neutrons of projectile nuclei 6He and 9Li yielded good agreement with experimental data

Total cross sections for the reactions 10,11,12^{10,11,12}Be+28^{28}Si and 14^{14}B+28^{28}Si

In this paper, the results of measurements of the total cross sections for the reactions $^{10,11,12}$Be+$^{28}$Si and $^{14}$B+$^{28}$Si in the beam energy range $13A$--$47A$ MeV are presented. The experimental cross sections were obtained by detection of the gamma quanta and neutrons accompanying the interaction of the isotopes of Be and B with $^{28}$Si. It was found that the cross sections for $^{11,12}$Be are similar, but significantly exceed those for $^{10}$Be. A significant increase in the cross sections for $^{12}$Be with decreasing energy is observed in the entire measured energy range. A theoretical explanation of the obtained experimental data is given based on the microscopic model of deformed nuclei and the numerical solution of the time-dependent Schr\"{o}dinger equation for the outer weakly bound neutrons of the projectile nuclei. The calculated total reaction cross sections are in good agreement with the experimental data

Experimental Investigations of Changes in beta-decay rate of Co-60 and Cs-137

Results of simultaneous measurements of beta-decay rate with the aid of Ge(Li)-detectors performed at two laboratories 140km apart (INR RAS, Troitsk, Co-60, and JINR, Dubna, Cs-137) during a period from 15.03.2000 till 10.04.2000, are presented. Regular deviations of the count rate of gamma-quanta following the beta-decay of $\sim$ 0.7% (INR RAS, Co-60) and $\sim$ 0.2% (JINR, Cs-137) from the statistical average, are observed. The analysis of extremum deviations of gamma-quanta count rate shows that the set of directions of tangents to the Earth's parallels of latitude at the extremum points of trajectories of motion in the space of each laboratory clearly forms three separate compact subsets of directions which agree, for two laboratories, to an accuracy of $\pm10^\circ$. This phenomenon is shown not to be explained on the basis of traditional notion. A possible explanation is suggested basing on the hypothesis that there exists a new anisotropic interaction caused by the cosmological vectorial potential \textbf{A}$_{\rm g}$, a new fundamental constant having, according to the experiments carried out, the coordinate of right ascension $\alpha \approx 285^\circ$ in the second equatorial system. This is in agreement with earlier experiments.Comment: 13 pages, LaTeX2e, 4 PS figure
