Title: ²⁴Mg(p, α)²¹Na reaction study for spectroscopy of ²¹Na

Abstract

The Mg-24(p, alpha)Na-21 reaction was measured at the Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in order to better constrain the spins and parities of the energy levels in Na-21 for the astrophysically important F-17(alpha, p)Ne-20 reaction rate calculation. 31-MeV proton beams from the 25-MV tandem accelerator and enriched Mg-24 solid targets were used. When recoiling He-4 particles from the Mg-24(p, alpha)Na-21 reaction we used a highly segmented silicon detector array to detect them; it measured the yields of He-4 particles over a range of angles simultaneously. A observed a new level at 6661 ± 5 keV in the present work. The extracted angular distributions for the first four levels of Na-21 and the results from distorted wave Born approximation (DWBA) calculations were compared to verify and extract the angular momentum transfer.

Spectroscopic study of the radionuclide ²¹Na for the astrophysical ¹⁷F(α,p)²⁰Ne reaction rate

Journal Article Cha, S. M. ; Chae, K. Y. ; Ahn, S. ; ... - Physical Review. C

The ²⁴Mg(p,α)²¹Na reaction was measured at the Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory to study the spectroscopy of the radionuclide ²¹Na. A 31-MeV proton beam from the 25 MV tandem accelerator bombarded isotopically enriched ²⁴Mg targets. Recoiling ⁴He particles were identified by an annular silicon strip detector array. Two energy levels at E_x=6.594 and 7.132 MeV were observed for the first time. By comparing the experimentally obtained angular distributions and distorted wave Born approximation calculations, the spins and parities of ²¹Na energy levels were constrained. The astrophysically-important ¹⁷F(α,p)²⁰Ne reaction rate was also calculated for themore »« less

Constraint on the astrophysical {sup 18}Ne({alpha},p){sup 21}Na reaction rate through a {sup 24}Mg(p,t){sup 22}Mg measurement

Journal Article Chae, K Y ; Jones, K L ; Moazen, B H ; ... - Physical Review. C, Nuclear Physics

The {sup 18}Ne({alpha},p){sup 21}Na reaction plays a crucial role in the ({alpha},p) process, which leads to the rapid proton capture process in x-ray bursts. The reaction rate depends upon properties of {sup 22}Mg levels above the {alpha} threshold at 8.14 MeV. Despite recent studies of these levels, only the excitation energies are known for most with no constraints on the spins. We have studied the {sup 24}Mg(p,t){sup 22}Mg reaction at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility (HRIBF), and by measuring the angular distributions of outgoing tritons, we provide some of the first experimental constraints onmore »« less

Proton branching ratios of ²³Mg levels

Journal Article Kim, C. H. ; Chae, K. Y. ; Ahn, S. ; ... - Physical Review. C

Background: The anomalous ²²Ne abundance measured in certain presolar graphite grains is thought to arise from the decay of ²²Na that was synthesized at high temperatures in core-collapse supernovae. To better interpret this abundance anomaly, the primary destruction mechanism of ²²Na, the ²²Na(p,γ)²³Mg reaction, must be better understood. Purpose: Determine proton branching ratios of several ²³Mg excited states that play a role in the high-temperature ²²Na(p,γ)²³Mg reaction rate. Methods: Particle decays of ²³Mg excited states populated with the previously reported ²⁴Mg(p,d)²³Mg transfer reaction measurement [Kwag et al., Eur. Phys. J. A 56, 108 (2020)] were analyzed to extract proton branchingmore »« less

Proton Decay of ²¹Na for ²⁰Ne Energy Levels

Journal Article Kim, M. J. ; Chae, K. Y. ; Cha, S. M. ; ... - Journal of the Korean Physical Society

The ²⁴Mg(p,α)²¹Na transfer reaction has been previously studied for a spectroscopic study of ²¹Na. In this follow-up analysis, the proton decays of the excited states of the radionuclide ²¹Na, which were measured simultaneously, are reported. By investigating the coincidence between the reaction α-particles and decay protons, we were able to identify three groups of events that are associated with the energy levels in ²⁰Ne. The ²⁰Ne excitation energy plot was obtained as a result. Here, the four lowest known energy levels in ²⁰Ne (the ground state and excited states at E_x = 1.633, 4.247 and 4.966 MeV) were clearly observed.
