Abstract: | Exclusive neutron spectra and angular distributions have been measured for 28–35 MeV (α, 2nγ) reactions on various nuclei in the 80 ≦ A ≦ 210 region. Pre-equilibrium processes dominate the 35 MeV (α, 2nγ) reaction mechanism in much of this region. Analysis of systematic variation in the neutron spectrum parameters shows that the reaction mechanism is strongly correlated with the target neutron excess parameter (N?Z/A. Analysis of the γ-decay of the entry states shows that well-defined incident angular momentum windows exist for the pre-etjuilibrium (α, 2nγ) reaction. These features are discussed in terms of various models for the reaction mechanism. |
