Recoil properties of nuclei produced in the interaction of protons with /sup 27/Al. I

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., C; (United States)
Recoil properties of /sup 7/Be, /sup 11/C, and /sup 18/F produced in the interaction of 1--11.5 GeV protons with /sup 27/Al were measured in a stack of aluminum foils. A difference method was employed to determine the fraction of recoil loss in the forward (beam) and backward directions (F and B, respectively). The values of F/B and the recoil ranges were combined with previous data on /sup 8/Li, /sup 22/Na, and /sup 24/Na and with counter-experiment measurements in a systematic analysis of the reaction mechanism, based on the two-velocity reaction model. The analysis indicates that the same processes occur in /sup 27/Al as in heavier target nuclei. The mechanism of formation of the products from /sup 27/Al, that were measured, appears to be independent of the energy of the incident proton in the GeV energy region.
