Alpha-particle emission from the reaction 1354 MeV /sup 165/Ho + /sup 181/Ta

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
The emission of ..cap alpha.. particles from the deep-inelastic reaction 1354 MeV /sup 165/Ho + /sup 181/Ta has been studied. Alpha particles were detected in coincidence with a projectilelike fragment, both in and out of the reaction plane. Average velocity diagrams, ..cap alpha..-particle energy spectra as a function of angle, and ..cap alpha..-particle angular distributions are presented. The in-plane data show that the bulk of the ..cap alpha.. particles in coincidence with the deep-inelastic exit channel can be explained by evaporation from the fully accelerated fragments. The out-of-plane ..cap alpha..-particle angular distribution data together with gamma-ray multiplicity data from previous work give a consistent picture of the transfer and partitioning of angular momentum between the two fragments.
