Abstract

The elastic scattering of 56 MeV polarized deuterons over a wide mass region has been investigated. The target nuclei were ¹⁶O, ²⁴Mg, ²⁸Si, ³²S, ⁴⁰Ar, ^{40, 44}Ca, ⁵⁴Fe, ^{58, 60, 64}Ni, ⁹⁰Zr, ¹¹⁸Sn and ²⁰⁸Pb. Angular distributions of the cross section and vector analyzing power A_y have been measured for all target nuclei. The tensor analyzing power A_yy has also been studied, except for ²⁴Mg and ²⁸Si. The optical-model parameters were derived from an analysis including no tensor potentials. Volume integrals for the real and imaginary parts of the central potential and the spin-orbit interaction were calculated and compared with the folding-model predictions. The effect of a complex T_R potential was studied. It was found that the real part of the T_R potential tends to be zero for all the nuclei studied and the inclusion of the imaginary part improves the fit to the tensor analyzing power.

Nuclear Structure and Decay Data for A=44 Isobars
2023, Nuclear Data Sheets
Experimental nuclear spectroscopic data are evaluated for 12 known nuclides of mass number A=44 (Si, P, S, Cl, Ar, K, Ca, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn). Detailed evaluated information are presented for each reaction and decay. Recommended values combining all available data are provided for all spectroscopic properties of each level, γ-ray, and decay radiation. No excited states have yet been identified in ⁴⁴Si, ⁴⁴P, ⁴⁴Cr, and ⁴⁴Mn. Information for excited states in ⁴⁴Cl and ⁴⁴V are limited. Nuclides of ⁴⁴S, ⁴⁴Ar and ⁴⁴K have been studied via only a few reactions and decays, while ⁴⁴Ca, ⁴⁴Sc and ⁴⁴Ti are the most investigated nuclides through various reactions and decays. Evaluators note that the half-life of the g.s. of ⁴⁴S has been measured independently, with fairly good statistics, in three references, most precise being 100 ms 1 by 2004Gr20, but this value is in disagreement with the values of 125.5 ms 25 and 119 ms 6 by 2022Tr03, and 123 ms 10 by 1995So03. We adopted the unweighted average of this discrepant dataset. Another outstanding issue is that of the β⁺-delayed proton decay of ⁴⁴Cr g.s. to ⁴⁴V, where the T=2, 0⁺ IAS state in ⁴⁴V is expected to be strongly populated by a superallowed β transition, but has not been definitely identified as discussed in detail by 2020Fu05. A detailed study of ⁴⁴Cr decay is required to unravel the status of the T=2, 0⁺ IAS state in ⁴⁴V. This work supersedes earlier ENSDF evaluations of A=44 by 2011Ch39 and 1999Ca45.
Nuclear Data Sheets for A=64
2021, Nuclear Data Sheets
The evaluated experimental data are presented and evaluated for 13 known nuclides of mass 64 (Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ga, Ge, As, Se). For each nuclide, the best values combining all available data are recommended for spectroscopic properties. No excited states have been identified in ⁶⁴Ti, ⁶⁴As, and ⁶⁴Se. Only one excited state in ⁶⁴V as an isomer, and three in ⁶⁴Cr have been identified. Data for excited states in ⁶⁴Mn, ⁶⁴Fe, and ⁶⁴Co remain limited. ⁶⁴Ni, ⁶⁴Cu, and ⁶⁴Zn are the most studied nuclides through various reactions and decays, followed by ⁶⁴Ga and ⁶⁴Ge. In the opinion of the evaluators, there are several incomplete or discrepant aspects of the high-spin portion of the level scheme for ⁶⁴Zn above ≈5 MeV excitation which need to be resolved in further experiments using large γ-detector arrays. The decay schemes of ⁶⁴Ti β⁻, ⁶⁴As ε and ⁶⁴Se ε are unknown, while very little information is available for ⁶⁴V β⁻ and ⁶⁴Cr β⁻. The decay schemes of ⁶⁴Mn β⁻, ⁶⁴Fe β⁻, ⁶⁴Co β⁻ and ⁶⁴Ge ε are somewhat better known, but still considered incomplete by evaluators. The decay scheme of ⁶⁴Ga ε decay is known in detail, however there is the possibility of additional levels populated above 4713 keV, as the Q(ε) value is 7171 keV. The β⁻, β⁺ and ε decay modes of ⁶⁴Cu are well known, as this radionuclide is of great importance in applications, for example, as a dosimeter for neutron flux determination in nuclear reactors, and as a radiopharmaceutical for positron emission tomography (PET). This work supersedes earlier full evaluations of A=64 by 2007Si04, 1996Si12, 1991Si03, 1979Ha35 and 1974Au04.
Nuclear Data Sheets for A=40
2017, Nuclear Data Sheets
The experimental nuclear structure data and decay data are evaluated for the known nuclides of mass 40 (Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Cl, Ar, K, Ca, Sc, Ti). Detailed evaluated nuclear structure information is presented with the best values recommended for level energies, half-lives, γ-ray energies and intensities, decay properties (energies, intensities and placement of radiations), and other spectroscopic data. The ⁴⁰Ca and ⁴⁰K nuclides remain as the most extensively studied from many different reactions and decays; no excited states are known in ⁴⁰Mg, ⁴⁰Al, ⁴⁰P and ⁴⁰Ti. This work supersedes the earlier full evaluation of A=40 by J. Cameron and B. Singh (2004Ca38).
Validation of elastic cross section models for space radiation applications

There is an abundance of elastic [56–70], reaction [56,71–129], and total cross section [56,58,69,70,130–146] data; therefore, these data have been used for validation of the model. An accurate representation of the available elastic differential cross section data [142,147–283] is also presented; however, there is a paucity of nucleus-nucleus differential cross section data for energies greater than a few hundred MeV/n. This manuscript proceeds as follows.
The space radiation field is composed of energetic particles that pose both acute and long-term risks for astronauts in low earth orbit and beyond. In order to estimate radiation risk to crew members, the fluence of particles and biological response to the radiation must be known at tissue sites. Given that the spectral fluence at the boundary of the shielding material is characterized, radiation transport algorithms may be used to find the fluence of particles inside the shield and body, and the radio-biological response is estimated from experiments and models. The fidelity of the radiation spectrum inside the shield and body depends on radiation transport algorithms and the accuracy of the nuclear cross sections. In a recent study, self-consistent nuclear models based on multiple scattering theory that include the option to study relativistic kinematics were developed for the prediction of nuclear cross sections for space radiation applications. The aim of the current work is to use uncertainty quantification to ascertain the validity of the models as compared to a nuclear reaction database and to identify components of the models that can be improved in future efforts.

Cross section calculations of deuteron-induced reactions using the extended CCONE code
2014, Nuclear Data Sheets
We have extended the CCONE code to make it possible to calculate cross sections for deuteron-induced reactions. Elastic breakup and stripping reactions to continuum are calculated using another codes based on the Continuum-Discretized Coupled-Channels theory (CDCC) and the Glauber model, respectively, and the calculated results are inputted to the CCONE code as direct reaction components. Statistical decay from compound nuclei formed by nucleon stripping and deuteron absorption is calculated with the exciton and Hauser-Feshbach models implemented in the original CCONE code. The extended CCONE code is applied to analyses of deuteron-induced reactions on ²⁷Al and ⁵⁸Ni. CDCC calculations for deuteron elastic scattering show good agreement with the experimental data at incident energies of several tens of MeV. The calculated double-differential (d,xp) cross sections reproduce the measured ones at forward angles for incident energies of 56 and 100 MeV fairly well.
