Are the anomalons colored?

The local color symmetry of QCD is broken spontaneously to SU(2) × U(1) and it is assumed that only SU(2) × U(1) singlets are observable. This implies that in addition to the normal color singlet hadrons also long-lived, colored, integrally charged particles with large masses and cross sections are observable. The theory is applied to explain the anomalous nuclear effects found in heavy ion collisions by Judek et al.     

Does the phenomenon of anomalons really exist?

An analysis of experimental data available to the date and concerning the dependence of projectile fragments (PFs) mean free path (mfp) in heavy-ion collisions on the distance from the point of their emission is presented. The linear dependence of the relative variation of the estimates of the mfp on 1/N, whereN is the number of PFs observed, has been established. This dependence seems to be understood only from the statistical point of view. It has been shown that the idea of the absence of anomalons in the Nature does not contradict the data of 27 experimental works out of 29 considered.     

Production of fragments in He+Au reaction at 12.7 GeV

The emission of fragments (A≥16) from reaction of ⁴He with ¹⁹⁷Au has been studied at bombarding energy of 12.7 GeV. Policarbonate Makrofol in sandwich form was used as a detector. Fragments produced in the experiment were identified and an event by event model-free analysis was performed. The decay channels ending with one, two or more (three, four) fragments were detected. A classification scheme based on the multiplicity (M_H) of heavy fragments (A≥40) was used in order to define multifragmentation (M_H = 0), spallation (M_H = 1) and fission (M_H = 2) events. The various experimental features of the fragmentation process are discussed.     

Identification of gamma transitions from He and Be ternary fission fragments

He and Be ternary fission processes of ²⁵²Cf have been studied in two experiments with the Gammasphere detector array with light charged particle detectors surrounding the source. From α-γ double gated spectra, neutron multiplicity distributions were determined for related α ternary fission pairs. In going from binary to α ternary SF for approximately the same mass splittings (A ≈ 104–146) the average neutron multiplicity decreases about 0.7 AMU. In the first light charged particle (LCP) γ-γ experiment, the ¹⁰Be spectrum was cutoff below 27 MeV and in the recent experiment, below 18 MeV. For high energy (E > 27 MeV) ¹⁰Be ternary fission, the data indicate that the largest yields go via the cold process (zero neutron evaporation). In the recent experiment with E cutoff of 18 MeV, the ¹⁰Be ternary SF was observed for zero to 4n emissions. It seems that in some cases like ¹³⁶Te, the On channel is the strongest and in the other cases like ¹⁰⁰Zr the 1n or 2n channel dominates. Clearly, there is a shift to lower average number of neutrons emitted for ¹⁰Be compared to α ternary SF. The ¹⁰⁴Zr and ¹³⁶Te cases where zero neutron emission occurs may be related to the fact that these nuclei are near the limits of the more neutron rich Zr and Te nuclei observed. The ¹³⁶Te is more spherical than the heavy partners in the other pairs and this may influence the 0n channel. Finally, the 0n channel may be more enhanced in the first data with the higher ¹⁰Be energy cutoff, leading to lower excitation energy. Also, we confirmed the 3368 keV peak with the FWHM of 60 keV emitted from the moving Be particles in the Doppler effect corrected spectrum.     

Interaction mean free paths of He fragments from ultrahigh-energy nucleus-nucleas collisions in emulsion

The interaction mean free paths of He fragments produced by the collisions of ³²S and ¹⁶O at 200 GeV/n in nuclear emulsion have been investigated. 906 He fragments giving rise to 374 secondary interactions have been used in the present analysis. Within the present statistics, we do not observe any anomalous behavior in the mean free paths of He fragments. The interaction mean free paths are found to be independent of the projectile mass and the impact parameter of collision, at the highest available beam energies.     

非束缚核9He的实验研究

简要介绍了目前有关非稳定核^9He的实验和理论研究现状．现代壳模型理论计算表明。He的基态自旋宇称为1／2^+，而不是1／2^-，即存在自旋宇称翻转现象．到目前为止，实验上虽然观测到了^9He的几个共振态，但还不能确认其基态的能量和自旋宇称值．利用新的实验技术——逆运动学弹性共振散射，对^9He核进行研究，给出了共振态的自旋宇称可能的取值范围．在ISOL型次级束装置上的实验有望能给出^9He核能级的精确测量．The status of theoretical and experimental investigations on unbound nucleus()~(9)He is briefly introduced. The results of modern shell model suggest that the ground state of~(9)He should be 1/2~(+) instead of 1/2~(- )as expected by the normal shell ordering. Therefore, it means that the parity inversion which was well known in~(11)Be occurs also in~(9)He ground state. Recently, some resonance states were observed in transfer reactions and final-state reaction, but their spin-parities cannot be exact...

低能He~(2+)与He原子碰撞转移电离出射电子能谱研究

利用反应显微成像谱仪对70和100keV He2+与He原子碰撞转移电离(TI)过程中不同出射角度的电子能谱进行了测量,观测到出射电子能谱具有如下分布特征:出射电子速度分布介于0和入射离子速度vp之间;在不同出射角度电子能谱分布均有一极大值存在,随着出射角度的增大,能谱分布极大值逐渐减小;当电子出射角度等于45°时,多数电子集中在0eV附近。上述特征可由低能离子-原子碰撞"准分子"模型进行定性解释。在100keV He2+-He转移电离出射电子能谱中有靶电子被俘获至散射离子连续态(electron capture to continuum,简称ECC)电子的贡献,这可看做是动力学两步过程的作用。     

Investigation of halo structure of 6He by hyperspherical three-body method

Hyperspherical harmonics expansion method is applied to a three-body model of two neutron halo nuclei. Convergence of the expansion has been ensured. A repulsive part is introduced in the interaction between the core and the extra-core neutron, to simulate Pauli principle. Two neutron separation energy, r.m.s. radii, correlation factor and probability density distributions have been calculated for ⁶He. It is found that the convergence of the two neutron separation energy is relatively slow, while other quantities reach convergence quickly.

An Investigation of 4He+12C and 4He+16O Reactions Using the Cluster Model

The α -target semimicroscopic single folding potentials have been derived by folding a composite (repulsive and attractive) effective α-α interaction with the α -cluster distribution density in the target nuclei. The obtained potentials are considered as the real part of the nuclear optical model potentials, while the imaginary parts are phenomenologicaly expressed using the Woods-Saxon form. Nine sets of measured experimental data of the ⁴He+¹²C and ⁴He+¹⁶O elastic rainbow scattering over the energy range 80-240 MeV are analyzed using the obtained potentials. The data are successfully reproduced using the extracted potentials. The resulted reaction cross sections are also investigated and compared with the available corresponding data.     

Investigation of the transfer ionization process in collisions of partially stripped ions on He

In this paper a projectile ion-recoil ion coincidence technique is used to investigate the transfer ionization processes in collisions of 0.22--6.30~MeV C^{q + } ions and 0.25--6.35~MeV O^{q + } ions (q=1, 2, 3, 4) with the He atom separately. The cross section ratio f of transfer ionization to single electron transfer is measured, and the dependence of f on both charge state q and energy E of the projectiles is investigated. The electron-structure and the mechanisms leading to transfer ionization affect the dependence of f on q and E. Our measurements, along with other data published previously, suggest a similar dependence of f on charge state and energy of projectile for partially stripped ions over a large energy range. The maximum value of f is approximately 0.17q^{0.60}; the energy corresponding to maximum f is about 160q^{0.60}~keV/u.     

Investigation of the^3 He(\vec d,p)^4 He reaction between 1 and 13 MeV

High-precision measurements of the cross section, the vector analyzing poweriT ₁₁ and the three tensor-analyzing powersT ₂₀,T ₂₁, andT ₂₂ of the³He(d, p)⁴He reaction have been performed in the energy range between 1.0 and 13.0 MeV in steps of 1 or 2 MeV. Angular distributions of the cross section have been obtained between 22.5° and 157.5° in the laboratory system. The polarization observables have been measured between 10° and 170°.     

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.     

Ab Initio Investigation of Helium Bubble Formation from Trapped He+ Ions in Solid Hydrogen

We are involved in a program aimed at a first-principles examination of the possibility of helium bubble formation in solid hydrogen. Our procedure is based on an extension of the Hartree–Fock cluster approach that we have been using for study of individual He⁺ ions in solid hydrogen. The preliminary results of our cluster investigations of a particular configuration of two He⁺ ions in neighboring tetrahedral interstitial positions are presented here. It has been found that the hydrogen molecules common to the two He⁺ ions lead to a substantial attractive force between the ions that almost overcomes their inherent repulsion, leading to a binding energy for this configuration only slightly less than the binding energy for two well separated trapped He⁺ ions. The analysis of our results have suggested future investigations of different pairs of trapping sites which appear to be more favorable for providing higher binding energies for the He⁺ pairs. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Investigation of the electronic structure of Be2+He and Be+He,and static dipole polarisabilities of the helium atom

The potential energy and spectroscopic constants of the ground and many excited states of the Be⁺He van der Waals system have been investigated using a one-electron pseudo-potential approach, which is used to replace the effect of the Be²⁺ core and the electron-He interactions by effective potentials. Furthermore, the core–core interactions are incorporated. This permits the reduction of the number of active electrons of the Be⁺He van der Waals system to only one electron. Therefore, the potential energy of the ground state as well as the excited states is performed at the SCF level and considering the spin–orbit interaction. The core–core interaction for Be²⁺He ground state is included using accurate CCSD (T) calculations. Then, the spectroscopic properties of the Be⁺He electronic states are extracted and compared with the previous theoretical and experimental studies. This comparison has shown a very good agreement for the ground and the first excited states. Moreover, the transition dipole moment has been determined for a large and dense grid of internuclear distances including the spin orbit effect. In addition, a vibrational spacing analysis for the Be²⁺He and Be⁺He ground states is performed to extract the He atomic polarisability.     

Investigation of fission fragments average spin based on four dimensional Langevin dynamical model

We applied the four dimensional Langevin dynamical model to investigate the average spin of fission fragments. Elongation, neck thickness, asymmetry parameter, and the orientation degree of freedom(K coordinate)are the four dimensions of the dynamical model. We assume that the collective modes depend on the emission angle of the fragments, then different parameters related to the average spin of fission fragments are calculated dynamically.The angle dependence of average spin of fission fragments is investigated by calculating the spin at angles 90?and165?. Also, the obtained results based on the transition state model at scission point are presented. One can obtain better agreement between the results of the dynamical model and experimental data in comparison with the results of the transition state model.
