Angular correlations in the /sup 14/N(/sup 3/He,n)/sup 16/F/sup */(p)/sup 15/O reaction
The author have remeasured the n-p angular correlation in the /sup 14/N(/sup 3/He,n)/sup 16/F/sup */(p)/sup 15/O reaction for the ground, first and second excited states in /sup 16/F. Using the Ohio State University Van de Graaff accelerator and supersonic, recirculating gas jet target system, measurements were made at bombarding energies of 5.00, 5.45 and 6.25 MeV. The definitively non-isotropic /sup 16/F ground state angular correlation seen in a previous study was not reproduced in the present study. The observed isotropic n-p angular correlation results for the ground and first excited states of /sup 16/F are consistent with the predicted shape based upon the expected nuclear structure and the spin assignments supported by the model-dependent reaction studies results. Proton partial widths for the ground, first, second and third excited states of /sup 16/F were deduced and found to be in good agreement with the most recent values found in the literature.
