Abstract

The excitation spectrum of ⁴¹Ca up to the emission threshold has been investigated in a magnetic spectrograph study of the ⁴¹Ca( $d$ ,p) reaction at E_d = 20 MeV with polarized deuterons. From DWBA and CCBA data analyses, experimental strength distributions are obtained for single-particle configurations in ⁴¹Ca. These results are compared to quasiparticle RPA calculations. The radial dependence of the form factors is studied with respect to the excitation energy behaviour with major shell mixing. We find that in general the observed occupation respectively depopulation of the orbitals can be well accounted for by the theoretical model.

Shedding light on nuclear aspects of neutrinoless double beta decay by heavy-ion double charge exchange reactions
2023, Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics
We review the status and prospects of heavy-ion double charge exchange (HI-DCE) reactions. Their important role for nuclear reaction, nuclear structure and double beta-decay investigations is outlined. From the experimental side the characteristically tiny cross sections for these processes and the high background generated by other more probable competing reactions is the main challenge, which has hindered HI-DCE spectroscopy until recent years. Modern magnetic spectrometers have proven to possess the right requisites to overcome past limitations, fostering the present and future development of the field. From the theory side, the description of the measured HI-DCE cross sections poses manifold challenges. Dealing with processes which involve composite nuclei, HI-DCE reactions can, in principle, proceed through several alternative paths. These, in turn, correspond to different reaction mechanisms probing competing aspects of nuclear structure, from mean field to various classes of nucleon–nucleon interactions and correlations. A powerful way to scrutinize the nuclear response to HI-DCE is to consistently link it to the information extracted from the competing direct reactions. Indeed, these complementary studies are mandatory in order to minimize the systematic errors in the data analyses and build a many-facets and parameter-free representation of the systems under study.
Heavy ion charge exchange reactions as probes for nuclear β-decay
2019, Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics
The status and prospects of heavy ion charge exchange reactions are reviewed. Their important role for nuclear reaction, nuclear structure, and beta-decay investigations is emphasized. Dealing with peripheral reactions, direct reaction theory gives at hand the proper methods for single (SCE) and double charge exchange (DCE) ion–ion scattering. The microscopic descriptions of charge exchange ion–ion residual interactions and the reaction mechanism are obtained by distorted wave theory. Ion–Ion optical potentials and reaction form factors are determined in a folding approach by using NN T-matrices and microscopic ground state and transition densities, respectively. The theory of one-step direct and two-step transfer reaction mechanisms for SCE reactions is discussed and illustrated in applications to data. Specific SCE reactions are discussed in detail, emphasizing the versatility of projectile–target combinations and incident energies. SCE reactions induced by $^{12} C$ and $^{7}$ Li beams are presented as representative examples. Heavy ion DCE reactions are shown to proceed in principle either by sequential pair transfer or two kinds of collisional NN processes. Double single charge exchange (DSCE) is given by two consecutive SCE processes, resembling in structure $2 ν 2 β$ decay. A competing process is a two-nucleon mechanism, relying on short range NN correlations and leading to the correlated exchange of two charged mesons between projectile and target. These Majorana DCE (MDCE) events are of a similar diagrammatic structure as $0 ν 2 β$ decay. The similarities of the DSCE and MDCE processes to pionic DCE reactions are elucidated. An overview on recent experimental research activities on heavy ion DCE research is given. Charge exchange strength distributions above the isovector spin-multipole resonance region and the excitation of nucleon resonances in high energy heavy ion SCE reactions are discussed in connection with the quenching issue.
Nuclear Data Sheets for A = 41
2016, Nuclear Data Sheets
Available information pertaining to the nuclear structure of all nuclei with mass numbers A=41 ranging from Al (Z=13) to Ti (Z=22) are presented. The experimental reaction and decay data are evaluated and any inconsistencies or discrepancies are noted. The adopted values for various level properties (such as the spin, parity and and halflife) and gamma properties (energy, intensity and multipole character) are given.
Since the prior evaluation several new measurements have expanded our knowledge of A=41 nuclides. The half-life of the ground state of ⁴¹Si has been determined and a single excited state identified. Excited levels in ⁴¹P have been observed for the first time. In ⁴¹Cl, seven new excited states have been identified in deep inelastic and heavy ion transfer reactions. Half-lifes for four states in ⁴¹Ar have been updated and additional levels with gammas have been included from a new measurement using the multiple ion transfer reaction. In ⁴¹Ca via charge-exchange reaction measurements, several new excited states were observed. A number of new resonances in ⁴¹K have been identified via the (p,γ) reaction.
There remains a significant discrepancy in the half-life of the first excited state (980 keV) in ⁴¹K, with measurements differing by more than an order of magnitude. Transfer reactions suggest that this M1 transition should be l-forbidden, however, several measurements yield a lifetime which suggests a sizable M1 strength. Further measurements to resolve the current conflicts would be beneficial.
Nuclear matter spectral functions by transport theory
2002, Nuclear Physics A
Quantum transport theory is used to calculate the nucleon spectral function in infinite nuclear matter. A self-consistent description is obtained by utilizing the relations between collision rates and correlation functions. Static and dynamical self-energies are taken into account in the single-particle propagators. The real parts of the nonstatic self-energy contributions are calculated by dispersion theory thus conserving the analyticity of momentum distributions. The transport theoretical spectral functions, momentum distributions, occupation probabilities and response functions are in close agreement with results of variational and other many-body theoretical calculations. The results indicate that the nucleon spectral functions are determined only by the average short-range correlation strength.
Statistical multistep reaction approach for pre-equilibrium processes
2001, Nuclear Physics A
Nuclear data sheets for A = 41
2001, Nuclear Data Sheets
Nuclear spectroscopic information for the known nuclides of mass 41 (Al,Si,P,S,Cl,Ar,K,Ca,Sc,Ti) has been evaluated. The principal sources of the adopted levels presented are Endt's evaluations (1990En08, 1978En02). The data sets for reactions and decays, including all available gamma--ray data, are based mostly on the original literature. There are no data available for the excited states in 41 Al, 41 Si, 41 P, 41 Cl and 41 Ti.
