Abstract

Alpha-particle spectra resulting from the bombardment of douterons with α-particles have been measured at energies of 20.4, 24.2 and 28.1 MeV for all kinematically possible scattering angles θ_1ab > 5°. Angular distributions for the break-up cross section have been obtained by integration over the α-particle energy. The total reaction cross section is computed by extrapolating the angular distributions to 0°. The results are compared with predictions calculated from α-d phase shifts and Faddeev theory.

Charge dependence of the total nucleon-deuteron reaction cross section
1984, Nuclear Physics, Section A
The validity of charge symmetry in the reaction Nd → 3N has been tested experimentally. The breakup reaction ¹H(d, p)pn was investigated at bombarding energies T_d = 13.1 and 15.9 MeV. The total reaction cross section for the pd interaction is deduced from the measured spectra and compared with the corresponding cross section for the nd interaction. Both quantities agree within the experimental errors. The comparison with theoretical predictions shows that the approximate treatment of the Coulomb force in the framework of the Faddeev theory yields too-large deviations from charge symmetry.
Phase-shift analysis of d-α elastic scattering between 3 and 43 MeV
1983, Nuclear Physics, Section A
Phase shifts for the d-α elastic scattering have been extracted from differential cross sections and the vector and tensor analyzing powers of $^{4} He(d, d)^{4}$ He scattering in the energy range from 3 to 43 MeV. The analysis includes spin-orbit splitting, mixing of states and absorption to reaction channels. A new parametrization of two-channel scattering matrices is given and compared. Excellent fits have been obtained with a new phase-shift code ONEZERO, which is capable of taking into account all degrees of freedom in strong interactions. The Argand-plot method has been used for resonance analysis of the excited ⁶Li system. Five new broad T = 0 resonances above 15 MeV deuteron energy have been found in ⁶Li, corresponding to D₃, F₂, F₃, G₃ and G₄ resonant states. Problems from phase-shift ambiguities are pointed out.
A versatile scattering set-up in use for many-particle correlation experiments at the Hamburg isochronous cyclotron Part I: Mechanical system
1980, Nuclear Instruments and Methods
A very versatile system has been developed to meet most of the mechanical requirements for experimental set-ups in nuclear physics. The system components are also suitable for many other physical applications. One characteristic set-up is used to perform kinematically complete correlation experiments at the Hamburg Isochronous Cyclotron. Coplanar and non-coplanar geometry may be used to detect neutrons and charged particles in coincidence. A vacuum tank with sector shape makes the set-up equivalent to a scattering chamber of 2.4 m diameter in an angular range of 23.6°. This feature is used advantageously for scattering experiments at very small angles.
