基于运动学重构鉴别12C+209Bi反应的8Be基态出射道

Identification for Ground-state 8Be in 12C+209Bi Reaction Based on Kinematic Reconstruction

  • 摘要: 在弱束缚核6,7Li和紧束缚核12C等弹核诱发的近库仑势垒能区的重离子核反应中,实验上很早就观察到了大量的α产物。但受当时硅探测器技术的限制,实验未能关联测量反应产物,无法判断α来源,如无法筛选(12C,8Be→2α)反应道,8Be的能态更无法鉴别。本工作中,使用两组ΔE-E硅条探测器望远镜,对209Bi(12C,8Be→2α)中类弹核8Be破裂的两个α碎片进行了符合测量。利用长寿命基态8Be远靶渐近破裂的特征,通过运动学重建得到了两个α碎片的相对能量Erel、张角θ12和破裂方向角β,从而确认了8Be基态出射产物。

     

    Abstract: For heavy-ion nuclear reactions induced by the weakly-bound 6,7Li and tightly-bound 12C at near Coulomb-barrier energy region, plenty of α products have been detected experimentally in the early studies. However, the reaction mechanisms of heavy-ions in the near Coulomb-barrier energy region are complex. The origins of α particles still remain unsolved. For lighter projectiles such as 6,7Li, and 9Be, α particles may originate from inelastic excitation followed by breakup process, or resonant states of projectile-like nuclei like 8Be populated by nucleon transfer. The subsequent breakup of 8Be poses a significant challenge for the experimental identification for 8Be. For tightly-bound nuclei like ¹²C, the situation is equally complex. Disentangling the sources of α particles and identifying the reaction mechanisms are essential for developing the low-energy heavy-ion reaction theory. However, due to the limitations of previous silicon detector technology, the kinematic coincidence measurements for the two breakup products were scare, particularly in the direct determination of the reaction channel (12C, 8Be→2α). For identifying the ground state 8Be, the experiment using kinematic reconstruction method was carried out at the R60º nuclear reaction terminal of the Beijing HI-13 Tandem Accelerator at the China Institute of Atomic Energy. Two ∆E-E silicon-strip detector telescopes were used for a kinematic coincidence measurement of the two α breakup fragments from the projectile-like ground-state 8Be in the 12C+209Bi reaction. The experimental information of the relative energy Erel, opening angle θ12 and breakup direction angle β of the two α was kinematically reconstructed. The obtained results align well with the asymptotic breakup behavior of the long-lifetime ground-state 8Be. This study successfully reconstructed the properties of the long-lifetime breakup nucleus, providing groundwork for future investigation of the breakup of nuclei with short-lifetime and underlying reaction mechanisms.
