Backward angle cross sections for /sup 27/Al+/sup 16/O reaction products

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., C; (United States)
Reactions induced by bombarding a /sup 16/O gas target with /sup 27/Al ions were studied. Evaporation residues as well as target-like recoils were measured over a wide range of Q values. The yield of particles with 6< or =Z< or =9 was found to be forward peaked in the laboratory frame. These target-like particles emerge with center-of-mass kinetic energies that, on the average, are independent of the reaction angle. Their combined cross section has a 1/sintheta/sub c.m./ angular dependence. If this cross section is assumed to be symmetric about 90/sup 0/ (c.m.) the integrated cross section is about 10% of the measured evaporation residue cross section at a center-of-mass energy of 54 MeV.
