چکیده

The structure of the halo nucleus 11Be has been studied using the reaction 9Be(11Be,10Be+gamma)X at 60 MeV/nucleon. The ground state structure of 11Be is determined by comparing the experimental cross sections to a calculation combining spectroscopic factors from the shell model with l-dependent single-particle cross sections obtained in an eikonal model. This experiment shows the dominant 1s single-particle character of the 11Be ground state and indicates a small contribution of 0d admixture in the wave function. After correction for the approximately 22% intensity to excited levels, a clean and precise distribution of parallel momentum for knockout from the 1s halo wave function is obtained for the first time.

Comment on “ Neutron knockout of 12 Be populating neutron - unbound states in 11 Be ”

A recent paper [Phys. Rev. C 83, 057304 (2011)] used knockout from 12Be to populate two states near 3.9 MeV in 11Be and observed their neutron decay—but treated the two as a single state. The authors used a branching ratio for the upper state from an experiment that also did not separate the two states. Thus, their energy for 11Be(3.96 MeV) and the spectroscopic factor connecting it to 12Be(gs)...

Evidence Of A ( 1 d 5 / 2 ) 2 Component To The 12 Be Ground State

Data have been obtained on exclusive single neutron knockout cross sections from 12Be to study its ground state structure. The cross sections for the production of 11Be in its ground state (1/2+) and first excited state (0.32 MeV, 1/2−) have previously been measured [1], indicating a strong (2s1/2) 2 component to the 12Be ground state. In the present experiment, performed at the GANIL laborator...

Direct evidence for the breakdown of the N = 8 shell closure in 12Be

Partial cross sections and corresponding momentum distributions have been studied in the one-neutron knockout reaction ( 12Be,11Be+gamma) on a 9Be target at 78 MeV/nucleon. The resulting spectroscopic factors for the only two bound states of 11Be are 0.42+/-0.06 ( 1/2(+)) and 0.37+/-0.06 ( 1/2(-)), where the errors are experimental only. This result shows that N = 8 is not a good closed shell i...

Dynamical core deformation effects on single-nucleon knockout reactions at fragmentation beam energies

The effects of core deformation and of its dynamical reorientation and rotational excitation on the inclusive single-neutron knockout reaction cross sections on light spherical target nuclei are examined. The projectile nuclei are modeled within the framework of a weak-coupling, quadrupole-deformed core-plus-neutron two-body model. We formulate the inclusion of this non-spectator-core degree of...

from the Department of Physics University of Surrey Year Single - neutron knockout from intermediate energy beams of 30 , 32 Mg : Mapping the transition into the “ island of inversion ”

The breakdown of the N = 20 magic number in the so-called island of inversion around 32 Mg is well established. Recently developed large-scale shell-model calculations suggest a transitional region between normal-and intruder-dominated nuclear ground states, thus modifying the boundary of the island of inversion. In particular, a dramatic change in single-particle structure is predicted between...
