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 ^132Sn and ^208pb were studied in the framework of Smoluchowski equation taking into account temperature and spin-dependent shell correction. It is shown that the shelle ffects in the emission 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.

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.     

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.     

形变相关的壳修正对N=126处断前中子发射的同位素效应的影响

利用动力学加统计模型就形变相关的壳修正（DDSC）对中子126壳层附近209,213,217Fr断前中子发射的影响进行了研究。模拟结果表明,DDSC抬升了复合核的裂变位垒,且213Fr的升高约为209,217Fr的2倍,但却没有改变鞍点位置。尽管位垒升高延缓了系统的裂变,但其动力学过程受热力学驱动力（TDF）和核阻尼间竞争的主导,因此准确提取壳修正的作用还需考虑核耗散的形变关系。在裂变第一阶段,当核耗散取一体耗散（OBD）参数时,壳修正没有改变断前中子发射的同位素效应,然而当核耗散取标准参数设置（SPS）时,由于213Fr的TDF存在着异常增强,故该规律未能展现。在裂变第二阶段,位垒升高引起的断前中子发射的增强受到了TDF与核阻尼间竞争的反制,故断前中子发射的同位素效应仍未能显现。综合两阶段情况,DDSC对N=126处断前中子发射的同位素效应的影响受第一阶段规律的支配。The effect of deformation-dependent shell correction (DDSC) on the emission of prescission neutron (EPN) is studied within a dynamical and statistical model for three isotopes of 209,213,217Fr near the neutron 126 closure-shell. The results show that the fission barriers are enhanced with DDSC, and the increment of 213Fr is almost 2 times those of 209,217Fr, but those saddle points are not changed. Although the enhancement of fission barrier delays nuclear fission, the fission dynamics process is controlled by the competition between thermodynamic driving force (TDF) and nuclear damping, so the deformation-dependence of nuclear dissipation must be considered in order to extract the role of shell correction. The shell correction doesn't alter isotope effect of EPN with OBD nuclear dissipation in the first phase of nuclear fission, but the rule does not been exhibited because that there is abnormal enhancement of TDF using SPS nuclear dissipation. The increment of EPN caused by the rise of fission barrier is countered by the competition between TDF and nuclear damping in the second phase of nuclear fission, hence the effect of EPN cannot exhibit. The effect of DDSC on EPN near the neutron 126 closure-shell is dominated by the rules in the first phase of nuclear fission.

Heavy and superheavy nuclei

The new elements 110, 111 and 112 were synthesized and unambiguously identified in experiments at SHIP. Due to strong shell effects the dominant decay mode is not fission, but emission of alpha particles. Theoretical investigations predict that maximum shell effects should exist in nuclei near proton number 114 and neutron number 184. Our measurements give hope that isotopes of element 114 close to the island of spherical Superheavy Elements could be produced by fusion reactions using ²⁰⁸Pb as target. Systematic studies of the reaction cross-sections indicate that transfer of nucleons is the important process to initiate the fusion.     

Design and commissioning of a timestamp-based data acquisition system for the DRAGON recoil mass separator

The fission fragment mass distribution followed by neutron emission is studied for the ²³⁸U(¹⁸O,f) reaction using the asymmetric two-center shell model. Within the thermodynamic approach, excitation energy carried by the compound nucleus is dissipated in the emission of a pair of neutrons in several consecutive steps. Therefore, we have considered 2–12 (in step of 2) neutron emission channels in our formalism. The mass distribution corresponding to 8-neutron emission channel compares reasonably well with the experimental data. The observed fine structure dips corresponding to shell closure (Z = 50 and N = 82 of individual fission fragment arise mainly due to shell structure in the mass parameters. However, an exact location and magnitude of the dip at A = 124 in the mass distribution depends on how the temperature modifies masses and, also, on the precise information of pre- and post-neutron emission data. This suggests a possible importance of extending these calculations to get new insight into an understanding of the dynamical behaviour of fragment formation in the fission process.

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.     

Systematic study of survival probability of excited superheavy nuclei

The stability of excited superheavy nuclei (SHN) with 100 ⩽ Z ⩽ 134 against neutron emission and fission is investigated by using a statistical model. In particular, a systematic study of the survival probability against fission in the 1n-channel of these SHN is made. The present calculations consistently take the neutron separation energies and shell correction energies from the calculated results of the finite range droplet model which predicts an island of stability of SHN around Z = 115 and N = 179. It turns out that this island of stability persists for excited SHN in the sense that the calculated survival probabilities in the 1n-channel of excited SHN at the optimal excitation energy are maximized around Z = 115 and N = 179. This indicates that the survival probability in the 1n-channel is mainly determined by the nuclear shell effects.

     

Influence of Angular Momentum on Shell Effects of Pre-scission Particle Emission of a Light Closed Shell Nucleus 132Sn

Based on the Smoluchowski equations, we study the influence of angular momentum on the shell effects of pre-scission particle emission for a light closed shell nucleus ¹³²Sn. It has been found that the shell effects of pre-scission particle multiplicity depends on the angular momentum in a complicated way. Possible reasons are discussed.     

Skyrme-Hartree-Fock Description of the Nuclear Structure in Ca Isotopes (Ⅰ)Binding Energy and Shell Effects,Radii and Density Distributions

The ground state properties of Ca isotopes far from stability line were systematically studied using the Skyrme Hartree Fock model.The shell effects on the binding energy and two neutron separation energy are discussed.The isospin dependency of the unclear radii and nucleon density distributions and the shell effects on these properties are also studied.It is shown that the neutron magic number affests the width of nuclear surface and the nucleon density distributions beyond the nuclear surface.The change of proton rms radii R_rms with neutron number excess I=(N-Z)/A follows R_rms=3/5(1+αI+βI²)r_pZ^1/3.The effect of the centrifugal potential on the nuclear density in the outer trach of nuclear surface is clearly shown.     

Analysis of fission excitation functions and the determination of shell effects at the saddle point

A method is proposed to deduce the shell correction energy corresponding to the fission transition state shape of nuclei in the mass region around 200, from an analysis of the first chance fission values of the ratio of fission to neutron widths, (Γ _f /Γ _n )₁. The method is applied to the typical case of the fissioning nucleus²¹²Po, formed by alpha bombardment of²⁰⁸Pb. For the calculation of the neutron width, the level densities of the daughter nucleus after neutron emission were obtained from a numerical calculation starting from shell model single particle energy level scheme. It is shown that with the use of standard Fermi gas expression for the level densities of the fission transition state nucleus in the calculation of the fission width, an apparent energy dependence of the fission barrier height is required to fit the experimental data. This energy dependence, which arises from the excitation energy dependence of shell effects on level densities, can be used to deduce the shell correction energy at the fission transition state point. It is found that in the case of²¹²Po, the energy of the actual transition state point is higher than the energy of the liquid drop model (LDM) saddle point by (3 ± 1) MeV, implying significant positive shell correction energy at the fission transition state. Further, the liquid drop model value of level density parametera is found to be a few per cent smaller for the saddle point shape as compared to its spherical shape.     

Possibility of ~5He emission in neutron induced reactions

There are some statistical model codes[1—4] as the evaluation tool that have been long and widely used to set up neutron data library below 20 MeV, which is the most important energy region in the application of nuclear engineering. The emitted particles considered in these codes mentioned above are neutrons, protons, as well as the compos-ite particles, such as deuterons, tritons, 3He and alpha particles. These emitted particles and nuclei can be treated as the nucleon or stable clusters. H…     

First observation of ground state dineutron decay: 16Be

We report on the first observation of dineutron emission in the decay of 16Be. A single-proton knockout reaction from a 53 MeV/u 17B beam was used to populate the ground state of 16Be. 16Be is bound with respect to the emission of one neutron and unbound to two-neutron emission. The dineutron character of the decay is evidenced by a small emission angle between the two neutrons. The two-neutron separation energy of 16Be was measured to be 1.35(10) MeV, in good agreement with shell model calculations, using standard interactions for this mass region.     

Long, cold, early r process? Neutrino-induced nucleosynthesis in He shells revisited

We revisit a ν-driven r-process mechanism in the He shell of a core-collapse supernova, finding that it could succeed in early stars of metallicity Z ? 10?3 Z(⊙), at relatively low temperatures and neutron densities, producing A ~ 130 and 195 abundance peaks over ~10-20 s. The mechanism is sensitive to the ν emission model and to ν oscillations. We discuss the implications of an r process that could alter interpretations of abundance data from metal-poor stars, and point out the need for further calculations that include effects of the supernova shock.     

Self-consistent approach to β-decay and delayed multi-neutron emission

The beta-decay half-lives and delayed multi- neutron emission branchings for the nuclei near the new neutron shell N = 34 are treated within self-consistent Density Functional + Continuum QRPA model (DF + CQRPA). A comparison with the recent self-consistent calculations from relativistic QRPA and standard (semi-microscopic) FRDM is performed.     

Influence of Deformation on Light Particles as a Probe of Nuclear Dissipation for a Neutron-Deficient 178Pb System

Using a diffusion model we investigate deformation effects on the sensitivity of different light particles to nuclear dissipation for a rather neutron-deficient 178pb system. Calculations show that deformation significantly increases the sensitivity of neutron emission to dissipation strength, and that this effect becomes stronger with increasing deformation.
