Influence of Isotope on Shell Effects of Pre-scission Particle Evaporation

The shell effects on the particle evaporation prior to fission for three Pb isotopes, 204pb, 20sPb, and 212pb,as well as three Sn isotopes, 128Sn, 132Sn, and 136Sn, are explored by a diffusion model. Calculations show that the magnitude of shell effects in the emission of particles changes with the neutron-to-proton ratio N/Z of these fissioning nuclei, and this change is affected significantly by the spin and excitation energy of the system. It is shown that high angular momentum enhances the dependence of shell effects on the N/Z while high excitation energy weakens such a dependence.     

100,104Sn核在裂变过程中发射的轻粒子多重性

用扩散模型考察了轻的幻核¹⁰⁰Sn在裂变过程中蒸发的轻粒子多重性. 发现壳仅对质子的发射有很强的影响, 而对中子几乎没有影响, 这与¹³²Sn核的情况正好相反. 因此把这种现象归因于系统中质比(N/Z)的影响. 通过比较¹⁰⁴Sn和¹⁰⁰Sn发射的粒子, N/Z的 影响得到了进一步证实. 计算发现高激发能弱化了N/Z效应.     

同位旋对断前粒子发射的壳结构依赖性

用扩散模型研究了壳对幻数附近的核,即²⁰⁴Pb,²⁰⁸Pb,²¹²Pb和¹²⁸Sn,¹³²Sn,¹³⁶Sn,在裂变过程中蒸发轻粒子多重性的影响.发现壳能够影响粒子发射的同位旋依赖性,并且该影响的大小与复合系统的自旋和激发能有关.计算表明角动量在壳影响同位旋相关的粒子发射中起到了显著的作用,而高激发能弱化了壳的影响.     

Effect of 0h11/2 Level on Shell Model Calculations of ^105Sb and ^107Sb

The full and reduced shell model calculations have been carried out for the light odd-even ^105Sb and ^107Sb isotopes. The model space has been chosen as 1d5/2, 0g7/2, 1d3/2, 2s1/2, and 0h11/2 for the full calculations and excluded 0h11/2 for the reduced calculations. The reduced shell model calculations of ^105Sb and ^107Sb isotopes are presented for the first time. We obtain the energy spectra for the ^105Sb and ^107Sb isotopes in the full and reduced model space by using CD-Bonn two-body effective nucleon-nucleon interaction. The resulting energy spectra are compared to the experimental results to understand the effect of the 0h11/2 level on the shell model calculations. We draw conclusions about the right model space in the shell model calculations for the isotopes around the N =Z= 50 region of the periodic table.     

Precision Mass Measurements beyond ^{132}Sn: Anomalous Behavior of Odd-Even Staggering of Binding Energies

Atomic masses of the neutron-rich isotopes ^{121-128}Cd, ^{129,131}In, ^{130-135}Sn, ^{131-136}Sb, and ^{132-140}Te have been measured with high precision (10?ppb) using the Penning-trap mass spectrometer JYFLTRAP. Among these, the masses of four r-process nuclei ^{135}Sn, ^{136}Sb, and ^{139,140}Te were measured for the first time. An empirical neutron pairing gap expressed as the odd-even staggering of isotopic masses shows a strong quenching across N=82 for Sn, with a Z dependence that is unexplainable by the current theoretical models.     

放射性核束的库仑激发

综述了利用中、高能放射性核束的库仑激发方法研究位于N＝20和28主壳隙附近的丰中子核结构所取得的进展．系统的实验结果清晰地表明,在离开β稳定线区域时N＝20兰壳隙突然消失和N＝28主壳隙的减弱过程．提出了利用兰州放射性束流线开展双幻核Ni50附近核素的低位能级核结构研究的构想． The study of coulomb excitation of the neutron-rich nuclei around N=20 and 28 shell closure with radioactive ion beam at intermediate energy is reviewed. The systematics of the measured energy of the 2+1 state shows that the N=20 shell closure in neutron-rich isotopes with Z≤12 disappears suddenly and N=28 shell elosure appears to be weak for 44S.The coulomb excitation studies of the exotic nuclei around the double magic 7828Ni50 at RIBLL are proposed.     

Behavior of the giant-dipole resonance in 120Sn and 208Pb at high excitation energy

The properties of the giant-dipole resonance (GDR) are calculated as a function of excitation energy, angular momentum, and the compound nucleus particle decay width in the nuclei ¹²⁰Sn and ²⁰⁸Pb, and are compared with recent experimental data. Differences observed in the behavior of the full-width-at-half-maximum of the GDR for ¹²⁰Sn and ²⁰⁸Pb are attributed to the fact that shell corrections in ²⁰⁸Pb are stronger than in ¹²⁰Sn, and favor the spherical shape at low temperatures. The effects shell corrections have on both the free energy and the moments of inertia are discussed in detail. At high temperature, the FWHM in ¹²⁰Sn exhibits effects due to the evaporation width of the compound nucleus, while these effects are predicted for ²⁰⁸Pb.     

Gammasphere上裂变丰中子核核结构若干前沿领域的新进展(Ⅰ:第一和第二部分)(英文)

(第一和第二部分):使用Gammasphere多探测器系统对252Cf裂变源瞬发γ射线进行γ-γ-γ和γ-γ(θ)符合测量,裂变丰中子原子核核结构若干前沿领域的深入研究获得了新的进展。高达5.7×1011以上的三重和更高重符合事件的数据统计,以及更少压缩的三维数据为宽广未知丰中子核区的寻找和研究提供了有利的条件。在具有重要物理意义的若干丰中子核区首次建立,或显著扩展了一批包括转晕态和转晕附近能态的高自旋能级纲图。在偶-偶丰中子核110,112Ru和108Mo中鉴别出了手征对称破缺结构。丰中子110,112Ru附近核的三轴形变基态具有最低的能量,在它们之中已确认了接近最大值的三轴形变。在这些Ru和Mo同位素中观察到的手征双线能带展示出手征破缺的一切特征,特别是其理想的能量简并,表明它们在迄今已报道的手征破缺结构中,具有最好的手征特性。研究了手征结构从具有γ软度的108Ru到具有大三轴形变的110,112Ru的过渡。斜轴推转(TAC)和随机相近似(RPA)理论计算成功地拟合了在这些偶-偶丰中子核中观察到的手征双线能带的特性,并指定其为软手征振动态。在这些偶-偶核中观察到的手征破缺不可能归纳为奇-奇核中那样的简化的几何图像。前者来自闭壳外所有中子的相互作用。对双幻核132Sn附近N=83同中素链的系统研究为这个极富吸引力的核区提供了大量新的谱学信息。N=83同中素135Te(Z=52),136I(Z=53),137Xe(Z=54),138Cs(Z=55)和139Ba(Z=56)的最新能级信息,特别是首次建立的138Cs高自旋能级纲图和壳模型理论计算表明,Z=50质子闭壳外少数g7/2价质子激发同N=82中子闭壳外之唯一f7/2价中子的耦合对该核区能级结构具有关键作用。观察到了132Sn和208Pb附近核区谱学信息的相似性和相对应的三粒子和五粒子态。在135Te中观察到了磁转动,这是在双幻核132Sn附近观察到的首例磁转动。     

Probing Shell Correction at High Spin by Neutron Emission of Doubly Magic Nuclei 208pb and 132Sn

Shell effects in particle emission for two doubly magic nuclei 132 Sn and 208 Pb were studied in the framework of Smoluchowski equation taking into account temperature and spin-dependent shell correction. It is shown that the shell effects in the enission of pre-scission neutrons are sensitive to the spin dependence of the shell correction at a moderate excitation energy. Therefore, we propose to use neutron multiplicity as an observable to probe the shell correction at high spins.

Effects of N/Z on survival probability of heavy nuclei

The excitation functions of the evaporation residue formation probability of three heavy nuclei 194Pb, 200Pb and 206Pb are calculated by using a Langevin equation coupled with a statistical decay model.The results show that the neutron-to-proton ratio (N/Z) of a compound nucleus has an effect on survival probability and this effect becomes larger with increasing N/Z. This is because the fission barrier and the pre-saddle particle emission depend on the N/Z ratio of the system.     

重核存活几率的N/Z效应

用Langevin方程计算了重核 194Pb, 200Pb和206Pb的蒸发残余形成几率。结果表明系统中质比(N/Z）影响了该几率大小,并且高的N/Z增加了重核存活几率。这是由于裂变位垒和鞍点前粒子发射依赖于系统N/Z的缘故。     

Relaxation of Isospin Degree of Freedom in the Reactions 36Ar+112,124Sn at 35MeV/u

Isotope ratios,defined as the yield ratio of two isotopes with the same charge,were analyzed as a function of kinetic energy of outgoing particles at 20° in the reactions of ⁴⁰Ar+^112,124Sn and 5°in³⁶Ar+^112,124Sn at incident energy of 35MeV/u. Isotope ratios between the neutron-deficient isotopes and stable isotope increase with kinetic energy,while those between the neutron rich isotopes and stable isotope decrease. This different behavior was observed similar for both ¹¹²Sn and ¹²⁴Sn targets. The isotope ratios show rather obvious target dependence at 20° and little target dependence at 5°. As the outgoing energy getting down,the N/Z ratio of the fragmentation products at 5° diverts gradually from the N/Z ratio of the projectile to that of the system. These observations indicate that the isospin degree of freedom does not reach complete equilibrium in the peripheral or semi-peripheral collision at this bombarding energy.     

一些近期发现的同核异能态的壳模型解释

近期，在101In、123,125Ag和218Pa等核中，首次观测到同核异能态。本工作通过原子核壳模型解释In、Ag同位素和$N\!=\!127$同中素中的这些同核异能态及相关的同核异能态背后的物理原因。101-109In这五个奇A核In同位素中，观测到的$1/2^{-}$同核异能态的激发能非常接近。这可以通过引入中子近期，在101In、123,125Ag和218Pa等核中，首次观测到同核异能态。本工作通过原子核壳模型解释In、Ag同位素和$N\!=\!127$同中素中的这些同核异能态及相关的同核异能态背后的物理原因。101-109In这五个奇A核In同位素中，观测到的$1/2^{-}$同核异能态的激发能非常接近。这可以通过引入中子$0g_{7/2}$和$1d_{5/2}$轨道间的很强的组态混合来解释。更进一步分析表明，这些奇A核In同位素中，从$9/2^{+}$基态到$1/2^{-}$同核异能态，一个质子从$1p_{1/2}$轨道激发到$0g_{9/2}$轨道。这一质子组态变化可能引发中子$0g_{7/2}$和$1d_{5/2}$轨道的单粒子能变化。这样一个原子核内的组态依赖的壳演化被称为第二类壳演化。与In同位素类似，123,125Ag的同核异能态被发现是$1/2^{-}$态，对应着一个质子空穴在$1p_{1/2}$轨道。但之前观测到的115,117Ag的$1/2^{-}$态是基态。这意味着质子$1p_{1/2}$轨道和$0g_{9/2}$轨道在$N\!=\!72$附近发生了反转。壳模型分析表明张量力是造成这两个轨道反转的决定性原因。之前观测到的奇奇核$N\!=\!127$同中素210Bi、212At、214Fr和216Ac中，基态是$1^{-}$态，同时存在高自旋的同核异能态。然而，基于$\alpha$衰变性质和壳模型计算，推荐218Pa中的基态和新发现的同核异能态分别为$8^{-}$态和$1^{-}$态。奇奇核$N\!=\!127$同中素基态和同核异能态的演化是由质子中子相互作用从粒子粒子形式转化为空穴粒子形式以及质子组态混合所导致。总的来说，壳模型对这些双幻核100Sn、132Sn和208Pb附近核中新发现的同核异能态有较好的描述。双幻核附近核中的同核异能态，也称为壳模型同核异能态，是核结构研究中非常重要的。因为这些同核异能态常常提供了中重质量区域极端丰中子和缺中子原子核中的第一个谱学性质，并包含了丰富的物理信息，比如质子中子相互作用及其在壳演化中的作用。     

壳模型对143Pm核跃迁几率的计算

原子核跃迁几率理论计算和实验对比是分析描述原子核内部结构的主要手段之一。目前采用重离子核反应观测到^143Pm核（Z=61，N=82）高自旋能级结构:激发态最大能级达x=8397．6keV，对应自旋J=47／2（h=1）。利用核壳模型在计算^143Pm核能级结构及对应的自旋宇称基础上，系统地对其γ级联跃迁链以及纯E2跃迁进行了计算，并与实验数据进行对比。采用OXBASH程序的单粒子跃迁公式计算了^143Pm的跃迁几率。At present, the high spin state of ^143 Pm（Z = 61, N = 82） have been investigated. The level scheme of ^143Pm has been extended up to an excitation energy Ex = 8 397.6 keV and spin J =47/2（ h = 1 ）. Based on the nuclear shell model （NSM）, we have calculated the sequences of γ-ray transition rates and the pure E2 reduced transition probabilities of ^143Pm, and compared with experimental data. The formula of single-particle transition probability in the OXBASH code was applied in this paper.     

Evolution of the giant dipole resonance in excited 120Sn and 208Pb nuclei populated by inelastic alpha scattering

The evolution of the giant dipole resonance (GDR) in ¹²⁰Sn and ²⁰⁸Pb nuclei at excitation energies in the range of 30–130 MeV and 40–110 MeV, respectively, were studied by measuring high energy γ rays from the decay of the resonance. The excited states were populated by inelastic scattering of α particles at beam energies of 40 and 50 MeV/nucleon for ¹²⁰Sn and 40 MeV/nucleon for ²⁰⁸Pb. A systematic increase of the resonance width with increasing excitation energy was observed for both nuclei. The observed width evolution was compared to calculations employing a model that adiabatically couples the collective excitation to the nuclear shape, and to a model based on the collisional damping of nucleons. The adiabatic coupling model described the width evolution in both nuclei well, whereas the collisional damping calculation could describe the width evolution only in ²⁰⁸Pb. Light-particle inelastic scattering populates low angular momentum states in the target nucleus. The observed width increase is therefore interpreted to be predominantly due to fluctuations in the nuclear shape induced by temperature. This interpretation is consistent with the adiabatic model calculations and with recent angular momentum-gated measurements of the GDR in excited Sn isotopes.     

Mass differences and neutron pairing in Ca,Sn and Pb isotopes

Various estimates of the even-odd effect of the mass shell of atomic nuclei are considered.Based on the experimental mass values of the Ca,Sn,and Pb isotopes,the dependence of the energy gap on the neutron number is traced and the relationship of this characteristic to the properties of external neutron subshells is shown.In nuclei with closed proton shells,effects directly related to neutron pairing and effects of nucleon shells are discussed.     

0(gs)+ -->2(1)+ transition strengths in 106Sn and 108Sn

The reduced transition probabilities, B(E2; 0(gs)+ -->2(1)+), have been measured in the radioactive isotopes (108,106)Sn using subbarrier Coulomb excitation at the REX-ISOLDE facility at CERN. Deexcitation gamma rays were detected by the highly segmented MINIBALL Ge-detector array. The results, B(E2;0(gs)+ -->2(1)+)=0.222(19)e2b2 for 108Sn and B(E2; 0(gs)+-->2(1)+)=0.195(39)e2b2 for 106Sn were determined relative to a stable 58Ni target. The resulting B(E2) values are approximately 30% larger than shell-model predictions and deviate from the generalized seniority model. This experimental result may point towards a weakening of the N=Z=50 shell closure.     

A Note on the Pair Excitation Across Major Shell in Deformed Nuclei

Valence nucleons usually play a dominant role in low energy nuclear spectra. The original version of the Interacting Boson Model[1](IBM) with the assumption that all degrees of freedom arise from the valence shell reproduces well large amount of experimental data. However this assumption does not work well in some cases, for instance, in the even isotopes of Sn, Cd, and Hg, Pb rather well developed intruder bands121 lie outside the IBA model space. K. Heyde et al. attributed these low lying intruder states to the pair excitation (PE) across major shell131. In the well deformed nuclei one can hardly think of the closed shell core as being spherical and inert. The rapid change of Nilsson levels with deformation seems to indicate that there should be excitations of nucleons across major shells in the well deformed nuclei.     

Fitting Single Particle Energies in sdgh Major Shell

We have performed two kinds of non-linear fitting procedures to the single-particle energies in the sdgh major shell to obtain better shell model results. The low-lying energy eigenvalues of the light Sn isotopes with A = 103- 110 in the sdgh-shell are calculated in the framework of the nuclear shell model by using CD-Bonn two-body effective nucleonnucleon interaction. The obtained energy eigenvalues are fitted to the corresponding experimental values by using two different non-linear fitting procedures, i.e., downhill simplex method and clonal selection method. The unknown single-particle energies of the states 2s1/2, 1d3/2, and 0h11/2are used in the fitting methods to obtain better spectra of the104,106,108,110 Sn isotopes. We compare the energy spectra of the104,106,108,110 Sn and103,105,107,109 Sn isotopes with/without a nonlinear fit to the experimental results.
