Abstract

We suggest that the number of correlated nucleon pairs in an arbitrary nucleus can be estimated by counting the number of proton-neutron, proton-proton, and neutron-neutron pairs residing in a relative S state. We present numerical calculations of those amounts for the nuclei {sup 4}He, {sup 9}Be, {sup 12}C, {sup 27}Al, {sup 40}Ca, {sup 48}Ca, {sup 56}Fe, {sup 63}Cu, {sup 108}Ag, and {sup 197}Au. The results are used to predict the values of the ratios of the per-nucleon electron-nucleus inelastic scattering cross section to the deuteron in the kinematic regime where correlations dominate.

Neutron-proton pairing in the N=Z radioactive fp-shell nuclei 56Ni and 52Fe probed by pair transfer

Journal Article Le Crom, B.; Assié, M.; Blumenfeld, Y.; ... - Physics Letters B

The isovector and isoscalar components of neutron-proton pairing are investigated in the N=Z unstable nuclei of the fp-shell through the two-nucleon transfer reaction (p,³He) in inverse kinematics. The combination of particle and gamma-ray detection with radioactive beams of ⁵⁶Ni and ⁵²Fe, produced by fragmentation at the GANIL/LISE facility, made it possible to carry out this study for the first time in a closed and an open-shell nucleus in the fp-shell. The transfer cross-sections for ground-state to ground-state (J=0⁺, T=1) and to the first (J=1⁺, T=0) state were extracted for both cases together with the transfer cross-section ratios σ(0⁺,T=1)/σ(1⁺,T=0).

Consequences of neutron-proton pairing correlations for the rotational motion of the N=Z nucleus 72Kr

Journal Article Kelsall, N; Wadsworth, R; Wilson, A; ... - Physical Review C

High-spin states in the N=Z nucleus {sup 72}Kr were populated using the {sup 40}Ca({sup 36}Ar,2p2n) reaction at a beam energy of 145 MeV. The yrast band has been observed up to a tentative spin of 20{Dirac_h}. Nonyrast rotational structures have also been observed for the first time. The alignment of g{sub 9/2} protons and neutrons in the yrast band is observed to be significantly delayed relative to the heavier even-even Kr isotopes. Exact deformed cranked shell model calculations suggest that this could be due to the combined effect of isovector (T=1) and isoscalar (T=0) neutron-proton pairing correlations.

Breakup of an oxygen nucleus to light fragments of mass number in the range A Less-Than-Or-Slanted-Equal-To 4 in {sup 16}Op interactions at a momentum of 3.25 GeV/c per nucleon

Journal Article Olimov, K; Glagolev, V; Gulamov, K; ... - Physics of Atomic Nuclei

New experimental data on the correlations of the yields of {sup 4}He and {sup 2}H nuclei in semi-inclusive reactions involving by the production of {sup 3}He and {sup 3}H mirror nuclei in {sup 16}Op collisions at a momentum of 3.25 GeV/c per nucleon are presented. The mean multiplicities of protons and neutrons appearing as fragments are found to be independent of the number of associated deuterons, this indicating that a considerable part of these fragments originate from the breakup of the alpha-particle clusters forming the oxygen nucleus.

Cross sections and analyzing powers for nucleon scattering from sup 6 Li and proton scattering from sup 27 Al

Miscellaneous Pfuetzner, H

Analyzing powers have been measured for neutron elastic scattering from {sup 6}Li and inelastic scattering to the first excited state of {sup 6}Li. These data were obtained in the neutron energy range of 5 to 17 MeV using the time-of-flight technique for determination of the neutron energy. A pulsed polarized deuteron beam was employed to produce a pulsed polarized neutron beam via the {sup 2}H(d,n){sup 3}He reaction. Complementary proton analyzing power data as well as cross-section data were measured in the same energy range with four pairs of silicon surface-barrier detectors.
