Cross sections of the reactions16O(γ,x)13 N and16O (γ,x)11 C,and Yield of12C (γ, t) up to 55 MeV

Yield curves of the reactions¹⁶O (γ, x)¹¹C,¹⁶O (γ, x)¹³N and¹²C(γ, t) have been measured relative to¹²C(γ, n)¹¹C with bremsstrahlung. The cross section σ[¹⁶O(γ, x)¹¹C] has a shape similar to σ[¹⁶O(γ, t)] and shows a broad maximum near 38 MeV. Differences between σ[¹⁶O(γ, x)¹³ N] and σ[¹⁶O(γ, t)] point to a reaction mechanism via quadrupole absorption in¹⁶O. The yield of¹²C(γ, t) exceeds the¹⁶O(γ,t) yield by a factor of two.     

A.C. susceptibility and magnetisation measurements on polysulphur nitride, (SN)x

Measurements of the complex A.C. susceptibility and magnetization of crystals of polysulphur nitride, (SN)_x, are reported. At temperatures near 0.2K both the in-phase and quadrature components of the A.C. susceptibility show a marked change which can be related to the onset of superconductivity. However, changes in the sample magnetization could not be detected.     

Streuwirkungsquerschnitte12C(p,p)12C undl2C(d,d)12C im EnergiebereichE p=350...550 keV,bzw.E d=600...1100 keV

Scattering Cross Sections¹²C(p, p)¹²C and^l2C(d, d)¹²C in the Energy Range E_p=350...550 keV resp. E_d=600...1,100 keV For an application in a work in nuclear solid state physics (elastic recoil detection with fast¹²C-ions) the scattering cross sections were measured. When adapting excitation functions with a Breit-Wigner formalism it was found that a satisfactory adaptation needed the reduction of one hard-sphere phase by the factor 0.4, and smaller, in order to maintain a reasonable value of the interaction radius.

Magneto-crystalline properties of BaFe12−2x M x Sn x O19 (M = Sn, Ni, Zn) ferrite powders

BaFe_12?2x M _x Sn _x O₁₉ compounds, where M?=?Sn²⁺, Ni²⁺ or Zn²⁺ ions, were synthesized by mechanical milling and partially by citrate precursor methods. Analysis of magneto-crystalline structure has been carried out by Mössbauer spectroscopy. The Sn⁴⁺ ions replace Fe³⁺ ions on 2b and slightly on 2a?+?4f₁ sites, Zn²⁺ ions strongly prefer 4f₁ sites, Sn²⁺ ions prefer 4f₁ sites too and Ni²⁺ ions occupy 4f₂ and 12k or 2a sites. The magnetic properties were evaluated by the vibrating sample magnetometry and the thermomagnetic analysis. A large variation of the intrinsic coercivity H _c (330 to 78 kA/m) and of temperature coefficient of coercivity of ΔH _c /Δ? (0.39 to 0.22 kA/m°C) were achieved as a function of the (Zn–Sn) and (Sn–Sn) substitutions, respectively. The Curie temperature T _c decreased with the (Ni–Sn) substitution from 447 to 399°C.     

Structure of 14C from 12C(t,p)

The reaction ¹²C(t, p)¹⁴C has been investigated with an 18 MeV triton beam. Twenty energy levels of ¹⁴C were identified up to 13 MeV excitation. Angular distributions were measured and compared with DWBA calculations. A previously unreported 0⁺ level at 9.75 MeV was observed; it undoubtedly corresponds to the second predominantly sd shell 0⁺ state in ¹⁴C. Additional spin and parity assignments have been made in the present work: 9.81 MeV, (1^?); 10.43 MeV, 2⁺; 10.50 MeV, (3^?); 10.74 MeV, 4⁺; 11.40 MeV, 1^?; 11.67 MeV, (1^?); 11.73 MeV, (5^?); 12.58 MeV, (2⁺, 3^?); 12.87 MeV. 2⁺, 3^?; and 12.96 MeV, (1^?); none of which had a definite spin and parity assignment previously. Our results confirm the previous information on the level structure of ¹⁴C below 8.5 MeV. The cross section for the unnatural parity state at 7.34 MeV, J^π = 2^?, is well reproduced by a two-step reaction calculation. The results are compared with the predictions of a weak coupling model.     

Interaction of different types of nanocages (Al12N12, Al12P12, B12N12, Be12O12, Mg12O12, Si12C12 and C24) with HCN and ClCN: DFT,TD-DFT,QTAIM, and NBO calculations

In this work, the ability of different types of nanocages including Al₁₂N₁₂, Al₁₂P₁₂, Be₁₂O₁₂, B₁₂N₁₂, Si₁₂C₁₂, Mg₁₂O₁₂ and C₂₄ for the adsorption and detection of poisonous gases HCN and ClCN has been investigated, theoretically using the D3 dispersion corrected density functional theory (DFT-D3). The absorption spectra of HCN–nanocage and ClCN–nanocage complexes were calculated by the time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) and compared with the calculated absorption spectrum of isolated nanocage to investigate the ability of nanocage for sensing of HCN and ClCN gases. It was found that the strongest interaction between HCN (ClCN) molecule and nanocage takes place when the molecule is adsorbed via its N atom on the surface of nanocage except for C₂₄. Also, it was shown that the Al₁₂N₁₂ is the best adsorbent for HCN and ClCN gases among the selected nanocages and Si₁₂C₁₂ is the best sensor for the detection of these gases using the electroconductivity and absorption spectroscopy techniques.     

Heavy cluster knockout reaction (16)O((12)C,2(12)C)(4)He and the nature of the (12)C-(12)C interaction potential

The heavy cluster knockout reaction (16)O((12)C,2(12)C)(4)He performed for the first time, reveals the true nature of the (12)C-(12)C interaction. The observed cross section is enhanced by almost 2 orders of magnitude over the conventional zero range distorted wave impulse approximation (DWIA) predictions. An attractive (12)C-(12)C optical potential, as obtained in the folding model, does not explain the enhanced cross section in the finite range (FR) DWIA framework. The inclusion of a hard core of fairly long range ～3.65 fm explains the data. The present investigation of (16)O((12)C,2(12)C)(4)He along with the (12)C-(12)C elastic scattering also proves beyond doubt that the folding model's deep attractive heavy ion potentials are unsuitable to describe the highly overlapping heavy ions. The application of FR-DWIA opens up new avenues to use the heavy core knockout for the detailed investigation of heavy as well as Borromean halo nuclei.

Mössbauer and magnetic studies of nanosize (Fe,Co) x C1 − x alloys

We report on preliminary results from a systematic study of the hyperfine (HF) structure of antiprotonic helium. This precise measurement which was commenced in 2006, has now been completed. Our initial analysis shows no apparent density or power dependence and therefore the results can be averaged. The statistical error of the individual lines is a factor of 60 smaller than that of three body quantum electrodynamic (QED) calculations, while the difference has been resolved to a precision comparable to theory (a factor of 10 better than our first measurement). Agreement between theory and experiment would lead to an increased precision of the measurement for the antiproton magnetic moment and provide a test of CPT invariance.     

The12C+12C reaction at subcoulomb energies (II)

The reaction¹²C+¹²C has been studied in the energy range E_c.m.=2.8–6.3 MeV by charged-particle spectroscopy. Angular distributions of the proton and α-particle exit channels were obtained. The excitation functions do not reveal evidence for the phenomenon of absorption under the barrier. The data have been extrapolated to the energy region of astrophysical interest. The existence of reported and new intermediate resonance structures is discussed.     

Fusion, resonances and scattering in12C+12C reaction

The variation of fusion cross-section (σJ_fus) with energy in the¹²C+¹²C collision is linked to the underlying resonance phenomenon through the behavior of reaction cross-section (σ) of which σ_fus is taken as a part. The calculation of σ_fus is done through an energy-dependent imaginary potential in the optical model potential (OMP). Through dispersion relation, such an imaginary potential gives rise to energy-dependent real potential which is incorporated in the OMP. In our calculation, a form of potential for the nuclear part which has a soft repulsive in-built core is introduced based on similar works done earlier. The calculated results of σ_fus are used to explain the oscillatory structure, astrophysical S-factor and the decreasing trend at higher energies of the experimental σ_fus data in the case of¹²C+¹²C system with remarkable success. The potential used for fusion calculation is tested for fitting elastic scattering data at some energies and is found good in forward angles. Further improvement of the fitting of these data is obtained by incorporating a coupling potential in the surface region. About twenty resonances are observed in our calculation in the specific partial waves and some of them are found close to the experimentally identified resonances in¹²C+¹²C reaction. Thus, we provide an integrated and comprehensive analysis of fusion, resonance and scattering data in the best studied case of¹²C+¹²C reaction within the framework of optical potential model.     

Isomorphous phase transition and orientational freezing in hexagonal mixed crystal C 70(1 - x) C60x. A pseudospin model

A four-state pseudospin model is constructed for the isomorphous phase transition hcp-2↦hcp-1 in pure C₇₀ and in C₇₀-rich mixed crystal C _{70(1 - x)} C_60x. With the specific anisotropic pseudospin interactions adapted to the C₇₀ crystal the model is equivalent to a two-state Ising model in a temperature-dependent field. Replica symmetric state of the model is shown to approach the critical point when the width of distribution of random fields and/or of random bonds increases. The temperature of the phase transition and the phase equilibrium temperature then are practically constant, whereas the experiment shows their strong decrease with x. The main effect of dilution resides in an x-dependence of the model parameters. Dilatometric data on the hexagonal C _{70(1 - x)} C_60x are used to fit these parameters. A metastable disordered phase subsisting below the phase transition is discovered in a range of the model parameters and is shown to be responsible for the macroscopic behaviour of the system. A good agreement with experimental data is obtained for the spontaneous strain and for the x-dependence of the hysteresis. Received 20 April 2001 and Received in final form 26 September 2001     

Magnetic behaviour and site occupation of YFe12-x V x (x=2,3,4)

The effects of vanadium substitution on the iron magnetism in YFe_12-x V _x compounds (x～2–4) have been studied by⁵⁷Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy. The preference of vanadium atoms for the 8i site of these ThMn₁₂-structure type compounds is confirmed. The rapid collapse of the iron sublattice magnetization with increasing vanadium concentration is analysed in terms of the ‘magnetic valence’ model.     

The12C+12C reaction at subcoulomb energies (I)

The reaction¹²C+¹²C has been studied in the energy rangeE _cm=2.45–6.15 MeV byγ-ray spectroscopy. Gamma-ray transitions from a large number of excited states in²⁰Ne,²³Na and²³Mg were observed, which show strong and rapid yield variations. When the influence of the Coulomb barrier is removed, these structures appear superimposed on a flat reaction yield, which does not show a strong increase at low energies, in contrast to previous work. These results obviate the need for the hypothesis of absorption under the barrier at least down toE _cm=2.45 MeV. The nuclear and astrophysical aspects of the data are discussed.
