Four-nucleon system with Δ-isobar excitation

The four-nucleon bound state and scattering below three-body breakup threshold are described based on the realistic coupled-channel potential CD Bonn+Δ$\text{Bonn}+\mathrm{\Delta }$ which allows the excitation of a single nucleon to a Δ isobar. The Coulomb repulsion between protons is included. In the four-nucleon system the two-baryon coupled-channel potential yields effective two-, three- and four-nucleon forces, mediated by the Δ isobar and consistent with each other and with the underlying two-nucleon force. The effect of the four-nucleon force on the studied observables is much smaller than the effect of the three-nucleon force. The inclusion of the Δ isobar is unable to resolve the existing discrepancies with the experimental data.     

Proton-Induced Deuteron Breakup Reaction at 65 MeV: Unspecific Configurations

 Cross sections and vector-analyzing powers for four unspecific configurations of the ²H(p,pp)n breakup reaction at E ^lab _p  = 65MeV were measured in a kinematically complete experiment. Measured observables are compared with rigorous Faddeev calculations using four realistic charge-dependent interaction models, the CD Bonn, Argonne v ₁₈, Nijmegen I, and Nijmegen II potentials with or without inclusion of the Tucson-Melbourne three-nucleon force. Coulomb effects are completely omitted. A satisfactory agreement between theory and experiment has been found. There exist, however, some discrepancies between measured and calculated analyzing-power distributions in certain kinematical regions. The effects of the Tucson-Melbourne three-body force are either negligible or slightly increasing the disagreement.

Properties of 12C in the Ab initio nuclear shell model

We obtain properties of 12C in the ab initio no-core nuclear shell model. The effective Hamiltonians are derived microscopically from the realistic CD Bonn and the Argonne V8' nucleon-nucleon (NN) potentials as a function of the finite harmonic oscillator basis space. Binding energies, excitation spectra, and electromagnetic properties are presented for model spaces up to 5Planck's over 2piOmega. The favorable comparison with available data is a consequence of the underlying NN interaction rather than a phenomenological fit.     

Finite Range Effects on Fusion and/or Breakup of ^6He^＋238U and ^11Li＋^208pb Systems

We have studied the effects of the finite range of the interaction between the fragments of the projectile on the fusion and/or breakup of ⁶He+²³⁸U and ¹¹Li+²⁰⁸Pb systems at near barrier energies within the framework of dynamic polarization potential approach. It has been found that at near barrier energies the maximum flux is lost to the breakup channel and at energies well above the Coulomb barrier the fusion coupled with the breakup channel opens up, initially with sharp rise and later becoming saturated at energy nearly twice of theCoulomb barrier. Further, it is found that the breakup cross section increases with the increasing range of the interaction between the fragments of the projectile while the fusion coupled with the breakup channel cross section decreases with the increasing range.     

Relativistic effects in the 3N continuum and the A y puzzle

The three-nucleon (3N) Faddeev equation is solved in a Poincaré-invariant model of the three-nucleon system. Two-body interactions are generated so that when they are added to the two-nucleon invariant mass operator (rest energy) the two-nucleon S-matrix is identical to the non-relativistic S-matrix with a CD Bonn interaction. Cluster properties of the three-nucleon S-matrix determine how these two-nucleon interactions are embedded in the three-nucleon mass operator. Differences in the predictions of the relativistic and corresponding non-relativistic models for elastic and breakup processes are investigated. Of special interest are the lowering of the A _y maximum in elastic nucleon-deuteron (Nd) scattering below ≈25?MeV caused by the Wigner spin rotations and the significant changes of the breakup cross sections in certain regions of the phase space.

We present the details of an exact method for the treatment of Coulomb effects in neutron induced three-body n uclear reactions. Based on the three-body in tegral equations, the formalist allows the practical calculation of elastic, inelastic, and breakup processes without an approxima tion of C.M. Coulomb interaction.     

基于折叠势的两势方法系统研究质子放射性(英文)

基于两势方法系统地研究了质子数51 ≤ Z ≤ 83质子放射性核素的衰变半衰期。总的质子-子核相互作用势包括:通过单折叠子核密度和DDM3Y有效相互作用得到的微观核势,通过单折叠子核电荷密度和质子-质子库仑相互作用得到的真实库仑势以及离心势。同时,预测了同一区域16个核的质子放射性半衰期,并且预测的质子放射性半衰期在4.11倍的范围内。此外,还研究了质子放射性的Geiger-Nuttall定律。结果表明,Geiger-Nuttall定律可以用来描述角动量相同的同位素的质子放射性。In the present work, we systematically study the half-lives of proton radioactivity for 51 ≤ Z ≤ 83 nuclei within the two-potential approach. The total emitted proton-daughter nucleus interaction potential is composed of the microscopic nuclear potential obtained by single folding the density of the daughter nucleus with the DDM3Y effective interaction, the realistic Coulomb potential obtained by single folding the charge density of the daughter nucleus with the proton-proton Coulomb interaction and the centrifugal potential. We extend our study to predict proton radioactivity half-lives of 16 nuclei in the same region within a factor of 4.11. In addition, the Geiger-Nuttall law for proton radioactivity is researched. The results indicate that the Geiger-Nuttall law can be used to describe the proton radioactivity isotopes with same angular momentum.     

The Brueckner-Hartree-Fock Equation of State for Nuclear Matter and Neutron Skin

The equation of state for nuclear matter is presented within the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock(BHF) scheme,by using the realistic Argonne V18 or Bonn B two-nucleon potentials plus their corresponding microscopic three-nucleon forces.It is then applied to calculate the properties of finite nuclei within a simple liquid-drop model,and we compare the calculated volume,surface,and Coulomb parameters with the empirical ones from the liquid drop model.Nuclear density distributions and charge radii in good agreement with the experimental data are obtained,and we predict the neutron skin thickness of various nuclei.     

Faddeev Calculations of Breakup Reactions with Realistic Experimental Constraints

We present a method to integrate predictions from a theoretical model of a reaction with three bodies in the final state over the region of phase space covered by a given experiment. The method takes into account the true experimental acceptance, as well as variations of detector efficiency, and eliminates the need for a Monte-Carlo simulation of the detector setup. The method is applicable to kinematically complete experiments. Examples for the use of this method include several polarization observables in dp breakup at 270MeV. The calculations are carried out in the Faddeev framework with the CD Bonn nucleon-nucleon interaction, with or without the inclusion of an additional three-nucleon force.     

Deuteron breakup in the field of a heavy nucleus,Au(d,np)Au

The breakup of deuterons in the field of a gold nucleus has been measured at a deuteron energy of 12 MeV. The energy-angle correlations are compared with two different theoretical models which take into consideration only the Coulomb interaction.     

Momentum-space description of four-nucleon scattering

Four-nucleon scattering equations are solved in momentum space. The Coulomb interaction between the protons is included using the screening and renormalization approach. Realistic potentials are used between nucleon pairs. Results are obtained for all four-nucleon elastic and transfer reactions below three-body breakup threshold.     

Influence of breakup on elastic and α-production channels in the ~6Li+~(116)Sn reaction

The effects of breakup reactions on elastic and α-production channels for the ~6Li+~(116)Sn system have been investigated at energies below and near the Coulomb barrier. The angular distributions of α-particle production differential cross sections have been obtained at several projectile energies between 22 and 40 MeV. The measured breakup α-particle differential cross sections and elastic scattering angular distributions have been compared with the predictions of continuum-discretized coupled channels(CDCC) calculations. The influence of breakup coupling has also been investigated by extracting dynamic polarization potentials(DPP) from the CDCC calculations. From the predictions of CDCC calculations the relative importance of the nuclear, Coulomb, and total breakup contributions have also been investigated. The nuclear breakup couplings are observed to play an important role in comparison to the Coulomb breakup for the direct breakup mechanisms associated in the reaction of ~6Li projectile with ~(116)Sn target nuclei. The influence of strong nuclear breakup coupling exhibits suppression in the Coulomb-nuclear interference peak. The direct breakup cross sections from the CDCC calculations under-predict the measured α-particle differential cross sections at all energies. This suggests that the measured α particles may also have contributions from other possible breakup reaction channels.     

Coulomb potentials between spherical heavy ions

The Coulomb interaction between spherical nuclei having arbitrary radial nuclear charge distributions is calculated. All these realistic Coulomb potentials are given in terms of analytical expressions and are available for immediate application. So in no case a numerical computation of the Coulomb integral is required. The parameters of the charge distributions are taken from electron scattering analysis. The Coulomb self-energies of the charge distributions used are also calculated analytically in a closed form. For a number of nucleus-nucleus pairs, the Coulomb potentials derived from realistic charge distributions are compared with those normally used in various nucleus-nucleus optical model calculations. In this connection a detailed discussion of the problem how to choose consistently Coulomb parameters for different approximations is given.     

Deuteron breakup in the 2H(e,e' p) reaction at low momentum transfer and close to threshold

Deuteron breakup has been studied in a 2H(e,e' p) coincidence experiment at low momentum transfer and for energies close to threshold. The longitudinal-plus-transverse ( L+T) and longitudinal-transverse ( LT) interference cross sections are deduced. Nonrelativistic calculations based on the Bonn potential and including leading order relativistic contributions, meson exchange currents, and isobar configurations describe the ( L+T) data well. Surprisingly, large deviations of 30% to 45% are observed for the LT contribution.     

Proton-neutron correlation in the deuteron breakup at 56 MeV and prior-form DWBA analysis

Proton-neutron angular correlations in the ¹²C, ⁵¹V and ¹¹⁸Sn(d, pn) reactions have been measured at 56 MeV to investigate the deuteron breakup process. The elastic breakup which leaves the target nucleus in its ground state dominates the coincident spectra. The elastic breakup cross sections are estimated to be 36–48% of the inclusive breakup yields at 15° or 17.5°. In the angular correlations the protons are emitted predominantly on the side of the beam opposite to the neutrons. The experimental data have been analyzed using the prior-form DWBA. For both nuclear and Coulomb breakup, sufficient convergence of the calculations is obtained by including the pn angular momenta up to l = 2. For the nuclear breakup calculations, the l = 0 and 2 contributions dominate the cross sections. For the Coulomb breakup the l = 1 contribution is predominant. In the calculations the effect of the Coulomb breakup is seen at forward angles of the angular correlation. The DWBA calculations reproduce fairly well the coincident energy spectra and the angular correlations in the angular region where the protons are emitted on the side of the beam opposite to the neutrons. On the other hand the calculations overestimate the break-up cross sections by a factor of 2 to 10 in the angular region where the protons are emitted on the same side of the beam as the neutrons. The distributions of deuteron c.m. angular momenta that contribute to the breakup amplitude are examined to obtain information on the region of space in which the breakup reactions takes place.     

Sub-barrier interaction between deuterons and 58, 62Ni nuclei

The interaction between deuterons and ^{58, 62}Ni nuclei at energies of E _d = 3.5, 4.5 and 5.16 MeV is investigated. The discrepancy between measured scattering elastic cross section and the Rutherford ones is higher than the value calculated theoretically by considering deuterons polarization and Coulomb breakup. Analysis of measured cross section of ^{58, 62}Ni(d, p) reaction and the results of calculation of Coulomb breakup cross section integrated over neutron emission angles shows that that the dominant mechanism of proton formation is the reaction of neutron transfer to the target nucleus.     

Study of Coulomb interaction for two diffuse spherical-deformed nuclei

The Coulomb interaction for a spherical—deformed interacting pair is derived assuming realistic nuclear charge distributions. The effect of a finite diffuseness parameter is described either by the folding product of spherical or deformed sharp-surface distribution and a spherical short-range function or by using a Fermi two-parameter distribution function. The approximate solutions obtained using these categories of charge distributions are then compared to the numerical solution obtained within the framework of the double-folding model. We found that the finite surface diffuseness parameter affects slightly the inner region of the total Coulomb potential, while it produces large errors in calculating the Coulomb form factors used frequently in nuclear reactions and fusion numerical codes.
