We present the results of measurements and analysis of the differential cross sections of the 11B(d, p)12B reaction leading to formation of the 1+ ground state and the 0.953-MeV 2+, 1.674-MeV 2−, ...2.621-MeV 1−, 2.723-MeV 0+, 3.389-MeV 3− excited states of 12B at Ed = 21.5 MeV. The analysis of the data was carried out within the coupled-reaction-channels method for the direct neutron transfer and the Hauser-Feshbach formalism of the statistical compound-nucleus model. We deduced the spectroscopic factors, asymptotic normalization coefficients, and rms radii of the last neutron in all states studied. The existence of the neutron halos in the 1.674-MeV 2− and 2.621-MeV 1− states was found in consistence with the earlier published data. New information about the enlarged rms radii (6.5 fm) of the last neutron in the unbound 3.389-MeV 3− states of 12B was obtained, which may indicate the evidence of the neutron halo with the orbital momentum of the last neutron equal to two.
An experiment was done to search for states with a neutron halo in 12B. The measurements were carried out at the cyclotron of the University of Jyvaskyla (Finland) using Large Scattering Chamber ...(LSC). The idea of the work was to search for two states with the expected neutron halo, 1 ̄ and 2 ̄. Differential cross sections with excitation of 12B states, including abovementioned states, were observed. The preliminary calculations on halo radii by the method of asymptotic normalization coefficients for the 2 ̄ and 1 ̄ states which are in a discrete spectrum gave following values: 5.6 fm and 7.4 fm, which is much larger than the radius of the valence neutron in the ground state. But strictly the presence of a neutron halo can be confirmed only for 1 ̄ state. The 2 ̄ state can be considered only as candidate for halo. An unexpected result was obtained for the 3 ̄, 3.39 MeV state, which is in continuum 19 keV above the decay threshold 12B → 11B + n, preliminary estimation for its halo radius is ∼ 6.5 fm. This indicates that the halo can be present in this state as well. But strict conditions for neutron halo are not fulfilled in the same way as for 2 ̄ state. Until now, the neutron halo in unbound states has been observed only for the members of the rotational bands.
The role of closed and deformed proton and neutron shells in the fission of
Cf and
Fm nuclei at excitation energies from 40 to 56 MeV is studied. The mass–energy distributions of fission fragments of ...these nuclei formed in the
Th and
U reactions at projectile-ion energies close to the Coulomb barrier are measured by means of the CORSET time-of-flight spectrometer. It is shown that, in all of the reactions under study, an enhanced yield of fragments in the mass region around 100 a.m.u. is due to the effect of the
deformed proton shell. A manifestation of a supershort mode is found in the fission of
Fm at the compound-nucleus excitation energy of 40 MeV.
This article describes the development and creation of a universal system of data collection to measure the intensity of pulsed signals. As a result of careful analysis of time conditions and ...operating conditions of software and hardware complex circuit solutions were selected that meet the required specifications: frequency response is optimized in order to obtain the maximum ratio signal/noise; methods and modes of operation of the microcontroller were worked out to implement the objectives of continuous measurement of signal amplitude at the output of amplifier and send the data to a computer; function of control of high voltage source was implemented. The preliminary program has been developed for microcontroller in its simplest form, which works on a particular algorithm.
