Reaction studies with post-accelerated radioactive nuclear beams

A series of reaction studies has recently been performed using less than 1 MeV per nucleon post-accelerated 6He beams to induce reactions on proton and carbon targets. The p( 6He, 4He)t angular distribution obtained in this study allows a discrimination between coupled reaction channel and distorted...

Description
Summary:A series of reaction studies has recently been performed using less than 1 MeV per nucleon post-accelerated 6He beams to induce reactions on proton and carbon targets. The p( 6He, 4He)t angular distribution obtained in this study allows a discrimination between coupled reaction channel and distorted wave Born approximation model predictions. Moreover, the generalised optical theorem for charged particles has been used to deduce the 6He+ 12C total reaction cross section model-independently ( σ R =1840±20 mb). As expected it is much greater than the value obtained from previously measured 6Li+ 12C data ( σ R =880 mb).
