Comparison of proton and neutron spectra: The extended Griffin model, pairing and isospin

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik A Atoms and Nuclei

Abstract

The energy spectra of protons and neutrons emitted in proton induced reactions on the targets103Rh,159Tb, and169Tm were measured at a bombarding energy of 18 MeV and at a variety of emission angles. Angle-integrated emission spectra were calculated and compared with preequilibrium model predictions. The general validity of the extended Griffin model with a systematic empirical set of model parameter values was verified. Evidence was obtained for the conservation (partial or complete) of isospin as a quantum number and for the possible utility of including a pairing energy shift in the calculations.
