Cf multinucleon transfer reaction was investigated using
-ray spectroscopy. Analysis of the
-ray spectrum of
Cf revealed the presence of multiple long-lived (isomeric) excited states at low excitation energies. The energies and half-lives of the isomers contain information on the proton and neutron orbits in the heavy-element region and the deformation of atomic nuclei, and are important data to predict the properties of nuclei in the "island of stability".

加速器駆動システム(ADS)の核特性予測精度の向上と京都大学臨界集合体実験装置(KUCA)におけるADS炉物理実験で用いる中性子源情報の取得を目的として、京都大学の固定磁場強集束(FFAG)加速器を用いた核データ測定実験プログラムを開始した。このプログラムの一環として、鉄に対する陽子入射二重微分中性子収量(TTNY)及び断面積(DDX)を測定した。測定では、真空チェンバ内に設置された鉄標的に107MeVの陽子ビームを照射し、核反応によって標的から発生した粒子の信号を、小型の中性子検出器を用いて検出した。検出信号とFFAGキッカー電磁石の信号の時間差から飛行時間(TOF)を求め、ガンマ線の事象を波形弁別法によって除去して中性子事象をカウントすることで中性子のTOFスペクトルを求めた。得られた中性子のTOFスペクトルから、相対論的運動学により鉄標的に対するTTNY及びDDXを求めた。

被引用回数:1 パーセンタイル:67.14(Physics, Nuclear)The angular momentum of a primary excited compound nucleus produced in multinucleon transfer reaction is an important quantity to evaluate cross sections to synthesize neutron-rich heavy element nuclei as well as for surrogate reaction studies. The mechanism is, however, not enough understood due to the lack of detailed experimental data. In the present study, we determined the angular momentum of primary excited nuclei, Np,
Pu, and
Am, produced in the multi-nucleon transfer channels of the
O +
Np reaction. With this aim, angular distributions of fission fragments with respect to the axis perpendicular to the reaction plane were measured for each compound nucleus. The distributions show an anisotropy exhibiting an enhanced yield on the reaction plane. They are well reproduced by a saddle point model, from which the average angular momentum is derived in the model framework. The angular momentum increases with the compound-nucleus mass, thus the number of nucleons exchanged, but shows a saturating trend toward heavier compound nuclei. These results are the first ones to point to the dependence of the angular momentum on the transfer channels.

The results were compared with predictions of the "beyond-mean-field" model and the IBM model, and indications of prolate-oblate shape coexistence at
=60 in the Kr isotopes was found.

Fe on
Fe (half-life=44.5 days) is the key reaction for the production of
Fe in massive stars. This reaction cross section has been previously constrained by the Coulomb dissociation experiment, which offered partial constraint on the E1
-ray strength function but a negligible constraint on the M1 and E2 components. In this work, for the first time, we use the surrogate ratio method to experimentally determine the

Fe cross sections in which all the components are included. We derived a Maxwellian-averaged cross section of 27.5
3.5 mb at

1.7 mb at

Fe from the

The observed B(E1) strengths of mirror E1 transitions, provide strong evidence for breaking of isospin symmetry in the A=31 mass region. The new finding are supported and explained by state-of-the-art beyond-mean-field calculations including 2- and 3-body forces. According to these findings, the breaking of isospin symmetry originate from violation of charge symmetry in the 2- and 3-body parts of the Coulomb potential.

U was measured in the energy range
= 0.8 - 20,MeV, by gaining a factor of about 10
in statistics compared to the measurements performed so far. The spectrum exhibits local bump structures at
4,MeV and
6,MeV, and also a broad one at
15,MeV. In order to understand the origins of these bumps, the
-ray spectra were calculated using a statistical Hauser-Feshbach model, taking into account the de-excitation of all the possible primary fission fragments. It is shown that the bump at
4,MeV is created by the transitions between the discrete levels in the fragments around
Sn, and the bump at
6,MeV mostly comes from the complementary light fragments. It is also indicated that a limited number of nuclides, which have high-spin states at low excitation energies, can contribute to the bump structure around
15,MeV, induced by the transition feeding into the low-lying high-spin states.

These are a sensitive probe of shape coexistence and may be used to validate nuclear models.

Partial agreement with experiment was observed, hinting to missing ingredients in the theoretical descriptions.
