Abstract

Thick-target recoil ranges of radioactive nuclei produced in 30–200 MeV alpha-particle bombardment of ⁵⁹Co have been used to deduce the longitudinal momentum transfer per projectile nucleon (p_‖/A) as a function of residue mass and bombarding energy. The average value of p_‖/A increases monotonically with bombarding energy and reaches a maximum value of ≈ 160 MeV/c at ≈ 23 MeV/u, and decreases thereafter. The maximum value of p_‖/A is equal to the incident momentum up to ≈ 23 MeV/u and saturates at a value of ≈ 220 MeV/c beyond this energy.

Fission: A filter for the study of nuclear reaction mechanisms
1989, Nuclear Physics, Section A
The use of nuclear fission as a reaction filter to study the dynamics of low-to-intermediate energy nucleus-nucleus collisions has been widely exploited over the past decade. In particular, the fission fragment angular correlation (folding-angle) technique has been utilized to derive an understanding of linear momentum and energy transfer in projectile-nucleus interactions. These results illustrate the systematic evolution in reaction mechanisms from relatively simple processes such as complete fusion and peripheral transfer reactions at near-barrier bombarding energies to highly complex interactions dominated by precompound processes at intermediate energies. Studies of light charged particles, neutrons and complex fragments in coincidence with fission-tagged events demonstrate the growing influence of nucleon-nucleon collision mechanisms relative to the dinuclear mean field in determining the reaction dynamics with increasing projectile energy. The application of these same techniques to the investigation of the inverse fission process--damped collisions--has also yielded important new insights into this class of reactions and recent results for nuclide distributions and excitation energy sharing are described.
Target mass dependence of the average linear momentum transfer
1987, Physics Letters B
The average transferred linear momentum in nuclear reactions induced by ³He, ⁴He, ¹⁴N, and ²⁰Ne projectiles on Co, Cu and Ag targets was determined by thick-target-thick-catcher recoil range techniques for bombarding energies between 10 AMeV and 90 AMeV. A comparison with results obtained from fission fragment angular correlations indicates a strong target mass dependence of the linear momentum transfer.
Influence of nucleon Fermi motion on incomplete fusion
1985, Physics Letters B
Velocity spectra were measured for evaporation residues produced in fusion reactions induced by 5–35 MeV/A ¹⁴N. The results, together with published data for ¹⁶O and ²⁰Ne induced fusion, are shown to reveal a projectile dependence of incomplete fusion processes. The data can be qualitatively described in terms of a picture which takes into account the vector addition of the center-of-mass velocities of the interacting nuclei with the intrinsic Fermi velocities of the nucleons.
Reaction mechanisms investigated in interactions of <sup>12</sup>C at 360 MeV on medium-mass targets
1984, Physics Letters B
Cross sections, mean recoil ranges and isomeric ratios of radioactive α residues produced in ¹²C-induced reactions at 360 MeV on medium-mass targets are measured using on-line electrostatic collection. The isoproduction cross-section lines in the N-Z plane are drawn. The behavior of the mean recoil energies and of the isomeric ratios as a function of the mass and charge gain or loss by the target is obtained. It is shown that qualitatively most of the results can be understood in the framework of an incomplete fusion mechanism.
