转动集体流的同位旋效应

在同位旋相关的量子分子动力学模型框架下,通过分析中间快度的方位角分布研究了40MeV/u ⁵⁸Fe+⁵⁸Fe和⁵⁸Ni+⁵⁸Ni反应体系在不同碰撞参数下的转动集体流,并且半经典地计算了转动观测量.发现丰中子体系(⁵⁸Fe+⁵⁸Fe)具有较强的转动集体流,这种现象在半周边碰撞中更加明显.转动集体流的同位旋相关性主要来自于核子–核子碰撞截面的同位旋相关性和对称能的影响.     

Evidence of non-statistical structures in the elastic and inelastic scattering of58Ni+58Ni and58Ni+62Ni and intermediate dinuclear states

Excitation functions and angular distributions of⁵⁸Ni+⁵⁸Ni and⁵⁸Ni+⁶²Ni scattering at energies just above the Coulomb barrier have been measured aroundθ _cm=90° in energy stepsΔE _cm=0.25 MeV fromE _cm ? 110 MeV toE _cm ? 120 MeV for⁵⁸Ni+⁵⁸Ni and fromE _cm ? 110 MeV toE _cm ? 118 MeV for⁵⁸Ni+⁶²Ni. Evidence for structure of non-statistical character has been found in the angle-summed excitation functions; this evidence is corroborated by the analysis of the angular distributions. This is the first time that non-statistical structure in elastic and inelastic scattering is reported with high confidence level for this mass and excitation energy ranges. Attempts are presented to understand the nature of this structure, including the presence of intermediate dinuclear states and virtual states in a potential well.     

Rotational structures in the odd-odd nucleus80Y

High-spin states in 58Ni

High-spin states of ⁵⁸Ni were investigated via the study of in-beam γ-ray induced by the compound reaction ⁴⁸Ti(¹²C, 2n)⁵⁸Ni between 26 and 48 MeV. The energies and decay modes of these levels were determined from the analysis of γ-γ coincidence measurements at 35 MeV. The most intense lines in the ⁵⁸Ni γ-ray spectrum correspond to a cascade to the ground state, through levels at 1.454, 2.459, 3.619 and 4.381 MeV, also fed in other reactions, and by two previously unknown levels at 5.125 and 5.662 MeV; the spin assignments based on the present study are (apart from the ground state) 2, 4, 4, 5, 6 and 7 respectively for these levels. The first three were already known and the last three are new. The mixing ratios for the transitions between these levels are also determined. We observe also the same cascade in the reaction ⁵⁶Fe(α, 2n)⁵⁸Ni at an incident energy 18–24 MeV. Comparisons with other reactions, previous studies and recent shell-model calculations are presented.

Evidence for collective oblate rotation in N = Z 68Se

A gamma-ray spectroscopic measurement of the N = Z nucleus 68Se has been made following the 12C(58Ni,2n) reaction at 185 and 220 MeV using Gammasphere and the Argonne Fragment Mass Analyzer. Despite a very low production cross section of 200(50) &mgr;b, two distinct rotational bands were found; the ground state band consistent with oblate collective rotation, and an excited band consistent with prolate rotation. These observations support long-standing predictions that nuclear ground states with substantial oblate (beta(2) approximately -0.3) deformation should exist in this region.     

Quasi-free (p,pα) scattering on 24Mg, 28Si, 40Ca and 58Ni at 157 MeV

Sixfold energy spectra have been measured for the (p, pα) reaction at 157 MeV on ²⁴Mg, ²⁸Si, ⁴⁰Ca and ⁵⁸Ni around quasi-free kinematic conditions. For the three s-d shell nuclei the experiment covered a map ranging from 0 to 220 MeV/c in recoil momentum and from 0 to 20 MeV in excitation energy of the final nucleus. Recoil momentum distributions have been obtained for the 0⁺ ground state and the 2⁺ first excited state of ²⁰Ne, ²⁴Mg and ³⁶Ar, and also for the states around 4.4 MeV (mainly 4⁺) of ³⁶Ar. The a spectroscopic factors extracted by a DWIA analysis are about three times larger than those predicted by the SU(3) model; however, they agree quite well in relative magnitude for a number of cases. The disagreement in shape between experiment and theory observed at low recoil momentum for the 2⁺ states might result from another reaction mechanism. The cross sections for ⁵⁸Ni are about a factor often smaller than those for ⁴⁰Ca. The ⁵⁸Ni(p, pα)⁵⁴Fe reaction seems to lead mainly to excited states of the final nucleus.     

Study of 59Cu by means of 58Ni(d,n)

The reaction ⁵⁸Ni(d, n)⁵⁹Cu has been studied at 7.0 MeV bombarding energy. Angular distributions of transitions to 16 states in ⁵⁹Cu have been extracted and analysed with DWBA to yield absolute spectroscopic strengths. The results are compared to those of other measurements.

Energy dependence of the optical model parameters for 3He ions scattered from 40Ca and 58Ni

The differential cross sections for the elastic scattering of ³He ions on targets of ⁴⁰Ca and ⁵⁸Ni have been measured at incident energies of 27.7, 51.4, 73.2 and 83.5 MeV. The results of optical model analyses showed that only one unique potential (J_R ≈ 330 MeV · fm³) with a surface absorptive term can provide acceptable fits to the large angle elastic scattering cross sections at 83.5 MeV. The particular geometrical set found at 83.5 MeV could not, however, give an adequate fit to the data with energy less than 40 MeV. Subsequent analyses indicated that a break in the energy dependence of the real potential is observed for the low energy data. Explicit energy dependent terms were obtained by fitting all the data simultaneously. These phenomenological potentials were also compared with the folded nucleon-nucleus potential. The influence of the α-particle channels on the elastic scattering of ³He ions at 83.5 MeV was also examined.     

Fluctuations in inelastic proton scattering from58Ni in the energy range 17.1 to 20.6 MeV

Excitation functions of proton elastic and inelastic scattering on⁵⁸Ni have been measured for proton energies in the range 17.1 to 20.6 MeV, at laboratory angles of 90°, 120° and 155°. All show cross section fluctuations. Excitation functions are presented for the elastic and for five inelastic groups in the energy range 18.1 to 18.59 MeV. These were analyzed by the Fourier analysis method, and the average level width found to be about 13 keV. The observation of strong fluctuations in the higher inelastic yields has implications for several microscopic analyses reported in the literature of⁵⁸Ni(p, p′) data obtained at 17.7 MeV incident proton energy.     

Crystal blocking measurements of the time delay of fission induced by 32S, 48Ti, and 58Ni bombardment of W

The time delay in fission induced by bombardment of W with 180 MeV 32S, 240-255 MeV 48Ti, and 315-375 MeV 58Ni has been measured by observation of crystal blocking. There is a clear narrowing and a small increase in the minimum yield of the angular dips for fission compared with scaled dips for elastically scattered ions. This is interpreted as a fission delay of about 2 as, only weakly dependent on energy and atomic number. The delay is longer by 1 to 2 orders of magnitude than obtained from standard interpretations of measurements of prescission neutrons and giant-dipole-resonance gamma rays and from calculations of the nuclear dynamics in heavy-ion reactions.     

Cross sections and analyzing powers for fast-neutron scattering to the ground and first excited states of 58Ni and 60Ni

Differential cross sections for neutron scattering from ⁵⁸Ni and ⁶⁰Ni to the ground state and first excited state have been measured at 8, 10, 12 and 14 MeV. In addition, analyzing powers were measured for scattering to the same states for ⁵⁸Ni at 10 and 14 MeV, and for ⁶⁰Ni at 10 MeV. The data were analyzed in the framework of a coupled-channel formalism in which the vibrational model was assumed with deformed central and spin-orbit potentials. A spherical-optical-model analysis of the elastic scattering data was also performed following the coupled-channel analysis. Predictions for (p, p) and (p, p') scattering observables have been made and compared with measurements previously published. This approach permits neutron and proton deformation parameters to be deduced similarly from (n, n') and (p, p') scattering measurements for ^58,60Ni. These deformation parameters are compared in the framework of the core-polarization model of Madsen, Brown and Anderson.     

Two-quasiparticle bands in72Br

High spin states in the doubly odd nucleus⁷²Br were investigated via the reaction⁵⁸Ni(¹⁶O,pn) at 52–65 MeV beam energy. A multi-element detector system consisting of ten Compton supressed Ge detectors (OSIRIS) and two NE213 neutron detectors was used to establish the yrast bands up to 5 MeV excitation energy and probable spins of 15⁺ resp. 14^?. The lifetimes of 12 states and lifetime limits of four states were measured with the recoil distance method, among them four 0.5–3.1 ns isomers. Doppler broadened line shapes obtained in an additionalγγ-coincidence experiment via the reaction⁴⁰Ca(³⁶Ar, 3pn) at 125 MeV revealed further lifetimes and (very short) side feeding times. Three rotational bands were established with deformation parameters ¦β ₂¦≈0.3 and moment of inertia parameters \(\tilde f\) /? ²=36 MeV^?1 (K ^ρ=1^?) resp. 23 MeV^?1; their quasi-particle configurations are being discussed.     

54Cr, 54, 58Fe, 58Ni(d,p)55Cr, 55, 59Fe, 59Ni Vector analyzing power measurements

(d, p) cross sections and vector analyzing powers have been measured at 10 MeV bombarding energy for targets ⁵⁴Cr, ⁵⁴Fe, ⁵⁸Fe and ⁵⁸Ni. The systematic behaviour of the analyzing powers with Q for states of a given J^π has been observed. Spins of a number of states in ⁵⁵Cr and ⁵⁹Fe have been deduced.     

Radial Expansion Flow in Reactions of 40Ca+58Fe and 40Ca+58Ni

By means of using an isospin-dependent Boltzmann-Langevin equation which includes isospin-dependent symmetry energy, Coulomb energy, isospin-dependent nucleon-nucleon cross sections, Pauli blocking, and initialization, the radial expansion flow of reaction systems ⁴⁰Ca+⁵⁸Ni and ⁴⁰Ca+⁵⁸Fe at 53, 100, 150, and 200 MeV/u in the central collisions were studied. It has shown that the more neutron rich system exhibits smaller radial expansion flow. It was found that the neutron rich system had smaller threshold energy which may provide a new method to determine the isospin dependent nuclear equation of state from calculated result and linear fitting result.     

The energy dependent nucleus-nucleus optical potential in a nuclear matter approach

We calculated the energy dependent real and imaginary part of the nucleus-nucleus optical potential in a lab. energy domain between 50MeV and 225MeV per nucleon for the systems¹²C-¹²C and⁵⁸Ni-⁵⁸Ni. In our model we assume that the energetical behaviour of the colliding nucleons inside of the two overlapping nuclei is locally that of two colliding nuclear matter systems. Therefore the effective nucleon-nucleon interaction is calculated using a Bethe-Goldstone equation that includes the Pauli blocking caused by the two Fermi spheres and takes account of the presence of the other nucleons by their mean field. Neglecting finite range effects one can calculate the real and imaginary part by a folding procedure.     

A rotational band in82Zr

The neutron deficient nucleus⁸²Zr has been studied through the reaction⁵⁸Ni(²⁸Si, 2p 2n)⁸²Zr with a calculated cross section of 0.3% of the total fusion cross section atE(²⁸Si)=128 MeV. Gamma rays from excited states of⁸²Zr were measured and identified using the NORDBALL escape-suppression array at the Niels Bohr Institute. Reaction channel selection was performed by use of neutron and charged particle detector arrays in conjunction with the germanium detectors. A rotational band in⁸²Zr has been identified with spins up to 20 ? by analysis of reaction channel selectedγ-γ coincidence matrices. Band crossings were identified at frequencies 0.57 and 0.69 MeV.     

Structure of the odd-odd-nucleus 84Nb
