被引用回数:7 パーセンタイル:46.77(Physics, Nuclear)Low-spin single quasi neutron levels in Gd and Gd have been studied following the Gd () Gd and Gd () Gd reactions. A combined Si telescope and high-purity germanium array was utilized, allowing - and -- coincidence measurements. Almost all of the established low-excitation-energy, low-spin structures were confirmed in both Gd and Gd. Several new levels and numerous new rays are observed in both nuclei, particularly for 1 MeV. Residual effects of a neutron sub shell closure at = 64 are observed in the form of a large excitation energy gap in the single quasi neutron level schemes.

被引用回数:7 パーセンタイル:47.80(Physics, Nuclear)Odd-mass gadolinium isotopes around = 90 were populated by the () reaction, utilizing 25-MeV protons, resulting in population of low-spin quasi-neutron states at energies near and below the Fermi surface. Systematics of the single quasi-neutron levels populated are presented. A large excitation energy gap is observed between levels originating from the , and spherical parents (above the = 64 gap), and the (below the gap) indicating that the spherical shell model level spacing is maintained at least to moderate deformations.

被引用回数:13 パーセンタイル:64.12(Physics, Nuclear)Neutron-induced fission cross section data are needed in various fields of applied and basic nuclear science. However, cross sections of short-lived nuclei are difficult to measure directly due to experimental constraints. The first experimental determination of the neutron-induced fission cross section of Np at non-thermal energies was performed. The Surrogate Ratio Method (SRM) was employed to indirectly deduce the Np(,) cross section. The surrogate reactions used were U and U with the reference cross section given by the well-known Np(,) cross section. The ratio of observed fission reactions resulting from the two formed compound nuclei, Np and Np, was multiplied by the directly-measured Np(,) cross section to determine theNp(,) cross section. The Np(,) cross section was determined with an uncertainty ranging between 3 - 30% over the energy range of 0.2 - 20 MeV.

被引用回数:3 パーセンタイル:22.64(Physics, Nuclear)Low-spin, high-excitation energy states in Y have been studied using the Y() reaction. For this experiment a 25 MeV proton beam was incident upon a mono-isotopic Y target. A silicon telescope array was used to detect deuterons and coincident rays were detected using a germanium clover array. Most of the known low-excitation energy low-spin states populated strongly via the () reaction mechanism are confirmed. Two states are seen for the first time and seven new transitions, including one which by-passes the two low-lying isomeric states, are observed.

被引用回数:11 パーセンタイル:53.46(Physics, Nuclear)代理反応法は、20%の精度でアクチニド核の中性子捕獲断面積を評価することができるが、希土類核に対しては、直接測定した中性子捕獲断面積と23倍の不一致がある。これは、スピン/パリティの生成分布の違いによるものであると考えられる。このことを確かめるために、代理反応におけるガドリニウム核の角運動量移行の測定を行った。
