Continuum energy spectra of 3He scattered by 3He at 120 MeV

Bump structure was observed in the continuum energy spectra of ³He from the ³He(τ, τ') reaction at 120 MeV. The angular dependence of the cross sections at around the peak of the bump was reproduced by calculations based on the simple impulse approximation. It is also shown that the effects of multiple scattering are important to reproduce the energy spectrum of the lower-energy side of the bump.     

Scattering of negative pions on helium

Differential cross sections for negative pion scattering on ⁴He have been measured at five pion kinetic energies between 110 and 260 MeV in the angular range from 5° to 180°. Total cross sections have also been measured at eleven energies between 67 and 285 MeV. The differential cross sections have been fitted with a phenomenological expression for the nuclear scattering amplitude. Conventional phase shifts have been reconstructed starting from the parameters of the fits.     

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.     

Prior-form DWBA analysis of (3He,pd) elastic breakup at 90 MeV

Proton-deuteron coincident cross sections in ¹²C,⁵¹V,⁹⁰Zr(³He,pd) elastic breakup at 90 MeV have been calculated within the framework of the prior-form distorted-wave Born approximation (DWBA). Sufficient convergence of the calculations was obtained by including the pd relative angular momenta up to l = 4. The calculations reproduced the general trend of the coincident energy spectra and the angular correlation data, though deficiencies of the calculations were seen at some angles. The peripheral feature of the (³He, pd) elastic breakup is discussed from the angular momentum dependence of the transition amplitude.     

Phase-shift analysis of d-α elastic scattering between 3 and 17 MeV

Phase shifts for d-α elastic scattering have been extracted from differential cross sections and the vector and tensor analysing powers of ⁴He($\text{d}$, d)⁴He scattering in the energy range from 3 to 17 MeV. The angular momenta were restricted to L ≦ 4 and mixing parameters ε¹ and ε². Good fits could be obtained to nearly all the experimental data analysed. The total reaction cross section and polarization-transfer coefficients were predicted and compared with the measured data; satisfactory agreement was found within the experimental errors. Evidence for a new resonance was found between 11 and 15 MeV.     

Measurement of the two-body photodisintegration of3He in theΔ(1236) resonance region

The³He(γ, p)d reaction has been measured in the photon energy region between 200 MeV and 450 MeV at proton c.m. angles between 20° and 150°. Protons and deuterons were detected in coincidence with two time-of-flight spectrometers consisting of scintillation counters; both particles were identified and their energies and angles were measured. The angular distributions show a strong forward peak. The differential cross sections fall off with increasing photon energy without showing a significant influence of theΔ resonance.     

Analyzing-power and cross-section measurements for 3He(d,d)3He scattering

Complete angular distributions of the differential cross section and all four deuteron-analyzing powers for ³He(d, d)³He scattering have been measured at 14 energies between 1.5 and 11.5 MeV. For all components the major changes in the observables occur below 7 MeV deuteron energy.     

Investigation of fast neutron interaction with235U

The angular distribution of neutrons emitted by elastic, inelastic and fission processes on²³⁵U were measured at the incident neutron energies of 1.5, 1.9, 2.3, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0 and 5.5 MeV using nanosecond time-of-flight technique. The differential elastic scattering cross sections and their angular distributions at all the seven energies are presented. The total elastic scattering cross sections, angle and energy integrated cross sections for the inelastically scattered neutrons in energy bands of 200 keV, fission cross sections and the angular distributions of fission neutrons were extracted at 1.5, 1.9 and 2.3 MeV incident neutron energies. The energy distributions of the prompt fission neutrons and of the inelastically scattered neutrons are given at the incoming neutron energies of 1.5, 1.9 and 2.3 MeV; and the average fission neutron energies and the inelastic neutron evaporation temperatures were also evaluated at these energies.     

The reaction 14C(3He,n)16O and the coexistence model of 16O

The reaction ¹⁴C(³He, n)¹⁶O has been measured at a ³He bombarding energy of 25.4 MeV. The zero-degree differential cross section for the excitation of the three low lying 0⁺T = 0 states, at energies 0.0, 6.05 and 12.05 MeV are, respectively, 1.33 ± 0.10, 0.49 ± 0.10, and 0.50 ± 0.10 mb/sr These measured cross sections are in rough agreement with single-step zero-range DWBA calculations using an empirically determined ¹⁴C ground state wave function and in which the Brown and Green coexistence-model wave functions are used to describe the ¹⁶O 0⁺ states. The angular distribution of the transition to the ground state is measured between 0° and 32°.     

Analysis of inelastic scattering of3He on14C at 37.9 MeV

The differential cross sections of elastic and inelastic scattering of³He ions on the¹⁴C nucleus have been measured at an energy of 37.9 MeV. By fitting the shape of the measured angular distribution of the elastic scattering the parameters of the optical model have been found. These parameters have been used for the standard DWBA calculations of angular distributions corresponding to excitations of the¹⁴C levels 6.73(3^?), 7.01(2⁺) and 8.32(2⁺) MeV and for coupled channels calculations of the level 8.32(2⁺) MeV. The vibration parametersβ _L of the¹⁴C nucleus have been deduced.

Cross section of the <Superscript>3</Superscript>H(d, <Superscript>3</Superscript>He)nn reaction at a deuteron beam energy of 37 MeV

Inclusive spectra and differential cross sections of the ³H(d, ³He)nn reaction, measured at E _d = 36.9 MeV are presented. The shape of ³He spectra was reconstructed by modeling amplitudes of the neutron-neutron final state interaction (Watson-Migdal amplitudes), sequential decay via the ⁴He* resonance (E* = 21.2 MeV, Γ = 0.7 MeV), and their interferences. The model allowed the determination of the angular dependence of the differential cross section of the ³H(d, ³He)nn reaction accompanied by singlet nn-pair production. The results are compared to the supermultiplet potential model of the lightest nuclei interaction.     

Structure en bande du noyau 22Na: Le premier niveau Jπ = 6+

We investigate the two-body photodisintegration of ³He and its inverse, radiative p-d capture using bound-state functions corresponding to the N-N interaction being given by the Reid soft-core potential. For the two-body photodisintegration of ³He Coulomb effects and the final-state interactions between the proton and deuteron are not included. At low energy the shape of the angular distribution agrees well with experiment, but the 90° cross section exhibits an anomalous peak at 15 MeV due to electric dipole transitions connecting the deuteron and ³He D-states. The low-energy cross section is 25–40 % too small. The intermediate-energy angular distribution peaks too near the forward direction, and, contrary to experiment, has a minimum at 100°. At higher energy the 90° cross section in the center-of-momentum frame is at least an order of magnitude too small, but does display the correct energy dependence. This energy dependence is related to the properties of the bound-state wave functions and it is plausible that it will persist in an improved treatment (e.g. one which includes exchange currents) which properly accounts for the magnitude of the cross section. Contributions from the ³He S-states are negligible for photon energies between 100 and 150 MeV, but are dominant outside this energy region.     

Four-body calculations of 3He(p,pp)d and 3He(p,pd)p break-up reactions

We calculate the differential cross sections at various angles for reactions ³He(p, pp)d and ³He(p, pd)p at 35 MeV and 45 MeV incident proton laboratory energy, solving the integral equations of four-body theory with separable, S-wave, spin-dependent two body forces.     

Cross sections of fusion and transfer reactions in interactions between 3He and Pt and 197Au nuclei in the subbarrier energy region

The reactions of complete and incomplete fusion, along with nucleon transfer reactions in the range of ³He energies from 10 to 24.5 MeV, are investigated by irradiating gold and platinum targets with an accelerated ³He ion beam on the U-120M cyclotron at the Institute of Nuclear Physics, Czech Academy of Sciences, ?e?. Activation is used to determine the yield of nuclides resulting from nuclear reactions. The γ-activity induced in the targets is measured using a with high-resolution HPGe detector. Despite the low binding energy of ³He and the reactions with positive Q values, the measured cross sections of fusion reactions exhibit no specific features, compared to reactions conducted using beams of other light stable particles. Transfer neutron reactions in the subbarrier energy region have relatively high cross sections. These cross sections continue to grow as the energy of ³He rises. When a neutron is captured by a nucleus of ³He, the cross sections of these reactions reach their maximum values in the Coulomb barrier region.     

Differential cross sections of proton compton scattering at photon laboratory energies between 700 and 1000 MeV

Differential cross sections of proton Compton scattering have been measured at the Bonn 2.5 GeV synchrotron. 78 data points are presented as angular distributions at photon lab energies of 700, 750, 800, 850, 900, and 950MeV. The c.m. scattering angle ranges from 40°–130°, corresponding to a variation of the four momentum transfer squared betweent=?0.10 tot=?0.96 GeV² at 700 and 950 MeV, respectively. Two additional differential cross sections have been measured at 1000MeV, 35.6° and 47.4°. The angular distributions show forward peaks whose extrapolations to 0° are consistent with calculated forward cross sections taken from literature. The small angle data (|t| ?0.2 GeV²) together with the calculated cross sections at 0° are also consistent with the assumption of a slope parameterB of 5 GeV^?2. For the first time a rerise of the angular distributions towards backward angles has been observed. It becomes less steep with increasing energy. The most interesting feature of the angular distributions is a sharp structure which appears betweent=?0.55 GeV² at 700MeV andt=?0.72 GeV² at 950 MeV. Such a rapid varation of the differential cross section witht has never been ovserved in elastic hadron-hadron scattering or photoproduction processes. It indicates the existence of a dynamical mechanism which could be a peculiarity of Compton scattering.     

Two-body photodisintegration of 3He and 4He in the Δ(1236) region

Differential cross sections for the reactions ³He(γ, p)d and ⁴He(γ, p)t were measured at proton c.m. angles of 60° and 90° for photon energies ranging from 150–450 MeV with an average resolution of 8 MeV. Bremsstrahlung was used as the photon source; deuterons/tritons were analyzed in a magnetic spectrometer whereas coincident protons were detected in a plastic scintillator telescope. The experimental method includes a calibration by means of ¹H(γ, π⁰)p differential cross section measurement at 90° c.m. in the same photon energy range. The ³He and ⁴He two-body photodisintegration differential cross sections show a monotonically decreasing variation with photon energy. In addition, partial data on the differential cross section of the reaction ⁴He(γ, n)τ at 90° and 120° neutron c.m. angle are given.     

H + reactions from 1.96 to 6.20 MeV

The differential cross sections of ²H(d, d)²H, ²H(d, ³He)n, ²H(d, p)³H and ²H(d, t)p have been measured in a gas scattering chamber at ten bombarding energies between 2.0 and 6.2 MeV with accuracies ranging from ±1.7 % to ±3.4 %. The differential cross section of ²H(d, n)³He has been measured at forward angles to an accuracy of ±2.5 % at the same energies using a time-of-flight detection system. The neutron detection efficiency was calibrated from the ²H(d, ³He)n cross sections, so the neutron production cross sections reported here do not depend on any previous neutron measurements. The ²H(d, ³He)n cross sections have been converted into ²H(d, n) ³He cross sections and Legendre polynomial fits are given for the complete angular distributions of ²H(d, n)³He.     

Spectroscopy of low-lying positive parity states in 30P from the study of the reaction (3He,d) at 14.0 MeV

The reaction ²⁹Si(³He, d)³⁰P was studied at an incident energy of 14.0 MeV. Spectroscopic strengths for 14 positive parity states up to an excitation of 4.50 MeV have been obtained using DWBA analysis. The incident channel optical-model parameters for the DWBA calculations were extracted from elastic scattering cross sections measured also at 14.0 MeV.     

Near threshold production of neutral pions by complex particles

Cross sections for the inclusive neutral pion production cross section have been measured for near threshold energy ³He particles on complex nuclei. The results of these measurements are of order 10^?36 cm²/sr · MeV. The neutral pion cross section for 710 MeV ⁴He on ¹²C has been found to be comparable to the production cross section for nucleons, 10^?30 cm²/sr · MeV. Comparisons are made with a naive model relating complex particle production to nucleon production of pions.
