Stability of (3)He(2)(4)He(n) and (3)He(3)(4)He(n) L=0 clusters

We have studied the stability of mixed (3)He/(4)He clusters in L=0 states by the diffusion Monte Carlo method, employing the Tang-Toennies-Yiu He-He potential. The clusters (3)He(4)He(N) and (3)He(2)(4)He(N) are stable for N>1. The lighter atoms tend to move to the surface of the cluster. The minimum number of 4He atoms able to bind three 3He atoms in a L=0 state is nine. Two of three fermionic helium atoms stay on the surface, while the third one penetrates into the cluster.

Large-space cluster model calculations for the 3He(3He,2p)4He and 3H(3H,2n)4He reactions

The ³He(³He,2p)⁴He and ³H(³H,2n)su4He reactions are studied in a microscopic cluster model. We search for resonances in the ³He+³He and ⁴He + p + p channels using methods that treat the two- and three-body resonance asymptotics correctly. Our results show that the existence of a low-energy resonance or virtual state, which could influence the ⁷Be and ⁸B solar neutrino fluxes, is rather unlikely. Our calculated ³He(³He,2p)⁴He and ³H(³H,2n)⁴He cross sections are in a good general agreement with the experimental data.     

Microscopic study of the low-energy3He(3He, 2p)4He and3H(3H, 2n)4He fusion cross sections

We have calculated the³He(³He, 2p)⁴He and³H(³H, 2n)⁴He reaction cross sections at low energies within the microscopic multichannel resonating group method. For both reactions, we find good agreement with experiment. For the³H(³H, 2n)⁴He reaction, our calculated energy dependence reproduces that of each individual low-energy experimental data set, except for a normalization constant. Using this fact, we derive at a low-energy³H(³H, 2n)⁴He rate by taking the averaged mean of these fits.This work has been supported in part by the National Science Foundation, Grants PHY86-04197 and PHY88-17296.     

Theoretical Study of the 4He(γ, p)3H and 4He(γ, n)3He Reactions

Ab initio calculation of the total cross section for the reactions ⁴He(γ, p)³H and ⁴He(γ, n)³He is presented, using state-of-the-art nuclear forces. The Lorentz integral transform (LIT) method is applied, which allows exact treatment of the final state interaction (FSI). The dynamic equations are solved using the effective interaction hyperspherical harmonics method. In this calculation of the cross sections the three-nucleon force is fully taken into account, except in the source term of the LIT equation for the FSI transition matrix element.     

Primary populations of metastable antiprotonic (4)He and (3)He atoms

Initial distributions of metastable antiprotonic (4)He and (3)He atoms over principal (n) and angular momentum (l) quantum numbers have been deduced using laser spectroscopy experiments. The regions n = 37-40 and n = 35-38 in the two atoms account for almost all of the observed fractions [(3.0 +/- 0.1)% and (2.4 +/- 0.1)%] of antiprotons captured into metastable states.     

Deutron transfer in the 3He(3He,p)5Li reaction

Evidence supporting the transfer of deuteron cluster in the reaction ³He(³He, $\text{p}$)⁵Li is presented. This entails a selection of total angular momentum in a two-nucleon transfer reaction.     

Ab initio many-body calculations of the (3)H(d,n)(4)He and (3)He(d,p)(4)He fusion reactions

We apply the ab initio no-core shell model combined with the resonating-group method approach to calculate the cross sections of the (3)H(d,n)(4)He and (3)He(d,p)(4)He fusion reactions. These are important reactions for the big bang nucleosynthesis and the future of energy generation on Earth. Starting from a selected similarity-transformed chiral nucleon-nucleon interaction that accurately describes two-nucleon data, we performed many-body calculations that predict the S factor of both reactions. Virtual three-body breakup effects are obtained by including excited pseudostates of the deuteron in the calculation. Our results are in satisfactory agreement with experimental data and pave the way for microscopic investigations of polarization and electron-screening effects, of the (3)H(d,γn)(4)He bremsstrahlung and other reactions relevant to fusion research.     

Formalism for the T(d,n)4He and 3He(d,p)4He reactions

The formalism required to describe the T(d, n)⁴He or ³He(d, p)⁴He reaction when all particles may be polarized is discussed. The relation among the various sets of spin-1 tensors is stated explicitly, so that the formulas applying to a particular experiment may be written easily in terms of any desired system.     

Measurements of the strong-interaction widths of the kaonic (3)He and (4)He 2p levels

The kaonic (3)He and (4)He X-rays emitted in the [Formula: see text] transitions were measured in the SIDDHARTA experiment. The widths of the kaonic (3)He and (4)He 2p states were determined to be [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text], respectively. Both results are consistent with the theoretical predictions. The width of kaonic (4)He is much smaller than the value of [Formula: see text] determined by the experiments performed in the 70's and 80's, while the width of kaonic (3)He was determined for the first time.     

Investigation of (3He,3He)- and (3He,t)-reactions on10B,11B and13C

The³He-elastic scattering and the (³He,t)-reactions on¹⁰B,¹¹B and¹³C were studied. Excitation functions for the reactions¹⁰B(³He,t)¹⁰C and¹¹B(³He,t)¹¹C were measured at incident energies between 11 and 17 MeV. All angular distributions were taken at 14 MeV³He-energy. From an optical model analysis of the³He-elastic scattering data the parameters of the optical potentials were determined. Best fits were obtained using surface peaked potentials. The (³He,t)-reactions were interpreted in terms of a microscopic model, which, in general, gave a good account of the data. Corrections due to nonlocality effects were included in the calculations. A satisfactory agreement of the predicted and the measured cross sections required an effective nucleon-nucleon interaction of the Yukawa form (α^?1=1.2 fm). Using a Serber exchange mixture the isospindependent- and the spin-isopin-dependent strength parameters of the potential were deduced to beVτ=21.4±2.3 MeV andV _{σ τ}=19.5 ± 2.7 MeV, respectively.     

Is (3He,t) primarily A (3He,α) (α,t) reaction?

The reaction ⁴⁸Ca(³He, t)⁴⁸Sc to the low-lying even spin states has been studied as a pure sequential (³He, α) (α,t) process using an exact finite-range formalism. It is found that the strength of the cross-sections to these states is under-predicted by large factors. The consideration of second-order processes via the inelastic channels also fails to account for the strength of these states. The (³He, t) discrepancy still exists.     

Activation measurement of the3He(4He,γ)7Be reaction

The energy integrated absolute cross section of the³He(⁴He,γ)⁷Be reaction has been determined by an activation measurement, using the branching of the⁷Be 53.44d β-decay to the 478 keV state in⁷Li and its subsequentγ-decay. Depending on the branching ratio used (10.4% or 15.4%) we obtain a zero-energy nuclear cross section factor ofS(0)=0.56±0.03 keV·barn orS(0)=0.38±0.03 keV·barn, respectively.     

Low-lying states of 6He studied via the 6Li(t,3He)6He reaction

We present the recent experimental results on the ⁶He structure studied by the ⁶Li(t, ³He)⁶He reaction at 336 MeV. Above the conspicuous peaks for ground and first excited states for ⁶He, we have observed a broad structures at E _x∼ 5 MeV, and E _x∼ 15 MeV. The angular distribution of this structure exhibits the dominance of a ΔL = 1 transition, indicating the existence of intruder dipole states at low excitation energies in ⁶He. A slight admixture of positive-parity states in this structure has been indicated as well. Received: 1 May 2001 / Accepted: 4 December 2001     

Size effect in the (PrF3 nanoparticles-3He) system

Spin kinetics of adsorbed and liquid ³He in contact with crystalline nanopowders of the Van Vleck paramagnet PrF₃ at a temperature of 1.5 K has been studied by nuclear magnetic resonance. The correlation between the parameters of the nuclear magnetic relaxation of ³He and the sizes of the sample particles has been found. A qualitative model of the magnetic relaxation of ³He describing the experimental results has been proposed.     

(e, 3e) Differential cross section of He (21 S) and He (23 S)

The angular distribution of the five-fold differential cross section for the electron impact double ionization of He (2¹ S) and He (2³ S) has been studied. The kinematical conditions for maxima/minima in the angular distribution for the two cases have been compared. The two-step process for the double ionization is found to contribute very little in the triplet case.
