Title: Independent cross sections of Na, K, Rb, Cs, and Fr isotopes produced in Ta and U targets bombarded by /sup 12/C ions up to 77 MeV/nucleon

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)

Isotopic distribution measurements for Na, K, Rb, Cs, and Fr in the reactions /sup 181/Ta(/sup 12/C,X )Na,K,Rb,Cs and /sup 238/U(/sup 12/C,X )Na,K,Rb,Cs,Fr at different energies E = 13, 27, and 77 MeV/nucleon are reported. The independently observed yields of Rb and Cs show an important contribution for neutron-deficient nuclei. The U target shows very broad isotopic distributions which may be understood as a sum of two components. The results are compared to those obtained by nuclear reactions induced by protons over a wide energy range.
