The atomic masses of isotopes of elements beyond fermium, which can presently only be produced online via fusion-evaporation reactions, have until recently been determined only from decay chains reaching nuclides with known atomic masses. Especially in the case of lower-yield nuclides, for which the sufficiently detailed nuclear spectroscopy required to fully determine the nuclear structure is not possible, such indirect mass determinations may suffer systematic errors. For many superheavy nuclides, their decay chains end in spontaneous fission or in
-decay prior to reaching nuclides of known mass. To address this dearth of accurate atomic masses, we have developed a multi-reflection time-of-flight mass spectrograph that can make use of decay-correlations to accurately and precisely determine atomic masses for the very low-yield superheavy nuclides.

被引用回数:13 パーセンタイル:88.67(Physics, Multidisciplinary)The atomic masses of Sc,
Ti, and
V have been determined using the high-precision multireflection time-of-flight technique. The radioisotopes have been produced at RIKEN's Radioactive Isotope Beam Factory (RIBF) and delivered to the novel designed gas cell and multireflection system, which has been recently commissioned downstream of the ZeroDegree spectrometer following the BigRIPS separator. For
Ti and
V, the mass uncertainties have been reduced down to the order of 10 keV, shedding new light on the
shell effect in Ti and V isotopes by the first high-precision mass measurements of the critical species
Ti and
V. With the new precision achieved, we reveal the nonexistence of the
empirical two-neutron shell gaps for Ti and V, and the enhanced energy gap above the occupied
p
orbit is identified as a feature unique to Ca. We perform new Monte Carlo shell model calculations including the
d
and
g
orbits and compare the results with conventional shell model calculations, which exclude the
g
and the
d
orbits. The comparison indicates that the shell gap reduction in Ti is related to a partial occupation of the higher orbitals for the outer two valence neutrons at

The Ra isotopes were produced as fusion-evaporation products in the 51V+159Tb reaction system and delivered by the gas-filled recoil ion separator GARIS-II at RIKEN. The
-TOF detector provides for high-accuracy mass measurements by correlating time-of-flight signals with subsequent
-decay events. The masses of 206Ra and 207g,mRa were directly measured using a multireflection time-of-flight mass spectrograph equipped with an
-TOF detector. The mass excesses of 206,207gRa and the excitation energy of 207mRa were determined to be ME=3540(50)keV/c
, 3538(15)keV/c
, and Eex=552(42) keV, respectively. The
-decay branching ratio of 207mRa
=0.26(20), was directly determined from decay-correlated time-of-flight signals, and the reduced
width of 207mRa was calculated to be

from decay correlated mass measurement results.

被引用回数:12 パーセンタイル:71.69(Instruments & Instrumentation)We have developed a novel detector, referred to as an "-TOF detector", for correlated measurements of atomic masses and decay properties of low-yield, short-lived radioactive isotopes using a multi-reflection time-of-flight mass spectrograph. By correlating measured time-of-flight signals with decay events, it will be possible to suppress background events and obtain accurate, high-precision mass and half-life values even in cases of very low event rates. An offline test of the -TOF detector has shown that the time-of-flight detection efficiency for 5.48 MeV -rays is more than 90% and yields a time resolution of 250.6(68) ps and an alpha-energy resolution of 141.1(9) keV. Using a two-dimensional spectrum of the correlated -ray energy and time-of-flight, the -rays from mixed sources could be resolved. Subsequent testing using -emitting nuclei extracted offline from a gas cell provide verification of the -ray based characterization.

U are measured using a gas-filled recoil ion separator The quasielastic barrier distributions are extracted for these systems and are compared with coupled-channel calculations. The results indicate that the barrier distribution is affected dominantly by deformation of the actinide target nuclei, but also by vibrational or rotational excitations of the projectile nuclei, as well as neutron transfer processes before capture. From a comparison between the experimental barrier distributions and the evaporation residue cross sections for Sg (Z=106), Hs (108), Cn (112), and Lv (116), it is suggested that the hot fusion reactions take advantage of a compact collision, where the projectile approaches along the short axis of a prolately deformed nucleus. A new method is proposed to estimate the optimum incident energy to synthesize unknown superheavy nuclei using the barrier distribution.

At the JAEA Tokai tandem accelerator facility, we have been studying fission mechanism using multi-nucleon transfer reactions (MNT) through fission observables such as fission-fragment mass distributions, fission probabilities, prompt-fission neutrons, and so on. The MNT reaction is also expected one of viable reactions to produce super-heavy nuclei with more neutrons. The angular momentum transferred in the MNT reaction is an important property since it influences a survival probability of a compound nucleus. In the present study, the angular momentum transferred in MNT reactions are experimentally deduced using fission. In MNT reactions, the axis of the angular-momentum transfer can be defined as perpendicular to the reaction plane. The fission-fragment angular distribution measured with respect to this axis, thus, strongly reflects the angular momentum. We performed measurements of the fission-fragment angular distribution, and deduced the angular momenta transferred to the produced compound nuclei. In this workshop, details of the experiment and results will be presented as well as other experimental activities.

(Ce) scintillators for high-energy
rays, Ge detectors for low-energy discrete
rays, Si detectors for scattered particles, and solar cell charged-particle detectors for fission fragment measurements. To investigate the performance of the measurement system,
He beams were irradiated to a
Am target at the JAEA-Tokai tandem accelerator facility to observe the scattered particles from the target, and
-rays and fission fragments emitted from the compound nuclei produced by the
He-induced reaction. In this poster presentation, the details of the measurement system and the results of the experiment will be discussed.
