Design studies on the 4π γ-ray calorimeter for the ETF experiment at HIRFL-CSR

A high detection efficiency calorimeter which is used to detect γ-rays with energies from 1 MeV up to 10 MeV as well as light charged particles has been proposed. Design of the geometry, results of the crystal tests and Monte Carlo simulations are presented in this paper. The simulation results confirm that the calorimeter can obtain high detection efficiency and good energy resolution with the current designed geometry. And the calorimeter is competent for the future External Target Facility (ETF) experiments.     

β-delayed neutron decay of 21N

The β-delayed neutron and γ spectra of neutron-rich nucleus ²¹N using β-γ and β-n coincidence measurements were presented in this paper. Thirteen new neutron groups ranging from 0.28 MeV to 4.98 MeV and with a total branching ratio 88.7±4.2% were observed. One γ transition among the excited states of ²¹O, and four γ transitions among the excited states of ²⁰O were identified in the β decay chain of ²¹N. The ungated half-life of 83.8±2.1 ms was also determined for ²¹N.     

Configuration of the valence neutrons of ~(17)B

The reaction cross section of ~(17)B on ~(12)C target at(43.7±2.4)MeV/u has been measured at the Radioactive Ion Beam Line in Lanzhou(RIBLL).The root-mean-square matter radius(R_(rms))was deduced to be(2.92±0.10)fm,while the R_(rms)of the core and the valence neutron distribution are 2.28 fm and 5.98 fm respectively.Assuming a"core plus 2n"structure in ~(17)B,the mixed configuration of(2s_(1/2))and(1d_(1/2))of the valence neutrons is studied and the s-wave spectroscopic factor is found to be(80±21)%.
