Direct mass measurements of {sup 100}Sn and magic nuclei near the N=Z line; Mesures directes des masses de {sup 100}Sn et de noyaux exotiques proches de la ligne N = Z

Abstract

The masses of nuclei far from stability are of particular interest in nuclear structure studies, and many methods of varying precision have been developed to undertake their measurement. A direct time of flight technique in conjunction with the SPEG spectrometer at GANIL has been extended to the mass measurement of proton-rich nuclei near N = Z line in the mass region A {approx_equal} 60-80 known to provide input for astrophysical modelling of the rp-process and information relevant to the nuclear structure in a region of high deformation. The radioactive beams were produced via the fragmentation of a {sup 78}Kr beam on a {sup nat}Ni target, using the new SISSI device. A purification method based on the stripping of the secondary ions was successfully used for the first time, and the masses of {sup 70}Se and {sup 71}Se were measured. In order to improve the mass resolution for heavier nuclei, another method using the second cyclotron of GANIL (CSS2) as a high resolution spectrometer has been developed. An experiment aimed at measuring the masses of A 100 isobars in the vicinity of the doubly magic nucleus {sup 100}Sn was successfully performed, using this original technique.

Secondary ions of {sup 100}Ag, {sup 100}Cd, {sup 100}In and {sup 100}Sn produced via fusion-evaporation reaction {sup 50}Cr + {sup 58}Ni and simultaneously accelerated in the CSS2 cyclotron. The mass of {sup 100}Cd and, for the first time, the masses of {sup 100}Sn were determined directly with respect to the reference mass of {sup 100}Ag. These results have been compared to various theoretical predictions and open the discussion on considerations of spin-isospin symmetry. (author). 96 refs.}
