Total reaction cross sections σR of (30–60)AMeV 4,6,8He and 6,7,8,9,11Li on Pb, and 2n-removal cross sections σ−2n of 6,8He and 11Li on Pb, were measured by injecting magnetically separated, focused, monoenergetic, secondary beams of those projectiles into a telescope containing Pb targets separated by thin Si detectors. All these σR’s (except 4He), and σ−2n for 6He and 11Li, are underpredicted by microscopic model calculations which include only nuclear forces. Better agreement is achieved by including electromagnetic dissociation in the model, for those projectiles for which either the electric dipole response functions or the dominant photodissociation cross sections were known. The cross sections σ−4n for 8He, σ−xn for 7,8,9Li, and (σ−3n+σ−4n) for 11Li were found to be ⩽0.7 b. All σR’s were measured to better than 5% accuracy, showing that the method is usable for other target elements sandwiched into a Si telescope.

Strong absorption radii from reaction cross-section measurements for neutron-rich nuclei

Aissaoui, N. ; Added, N. ; Carlin, N. ; et al.

Inspire Record 506171 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.25461

Energy-integrated reaction cross sections have been measured at energies ranging from 38 to 80 MeV/nucleon for various exotic neutron-rich isotopes of Al, Si, P, S, Cl, Ar, K, Ca, Sc, and Ti stopping in Si. An experimental technique is employed where Si detectors are used for both particle identification and to serve as the target material. The reduced strong absorption radii r02 are deduced and compared with other experimental results. The radius dependence on the neutron number was studied and a trend of increasing reduced radius with neutron excess was found. This behavior is similar to that seen in lighter systems, although less pronounced than found there. The implications of this result on the conjectured existence of neutron halo or skin nuclei is discussed.

Direct electron pair production by 6.4-TeV S-32 emulsion interactions

Kamel, S. ;
Phys.Lett.B 368 (1996) 291-298, 1996.
Inspire Record 428062 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.28411

A search for direct electron pairs was performed at the 6.4 TeV 32 S emulsion interactions at CERN. A total of 81 directly produced electron pairs have been observed, with an average number per interaction of about two. The results have been analysed in the light of the predictions of quantum electrodynamical calculations. A simple interpretation for the extracted results based on the virtual mass distribution is presented. The experimental results are in partial agreement with the present theories. The virtual mass distribution does not show a 1/m behaviour.

Neutron skin of Na isotopes studied via the interaction cross-sections

Suzuki, T. ; Geissel, H. ; Bochkarev, O. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 75 (1995) 3241-3244, 1995.
Inspire Record 400762 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.19608

The interaction cross sections (σI) of ANa isotopes (A=20–23,25–32) on a carbon target have been measured at 950AMeV. The effective root-mean-square matter radii of these isotopes were deduced from σI by a Glauber-type calculation. By combining the isotope-shift data with the present data the radii of neutrons have been compared with those of protons for the first time along a chain of stable and unstable isotopes. A monotonic increase in the neutron skin thickness has been observed as the neutron number increases in Na isotopes.

Inspire Record 408551 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.37806

A comparative study is made for12C-Em and16O-Em reactions, according to the soft-sphere model using measured mean free path and hence cross-sections together with other collected data. The fragmentation of projectile intoZ-fragments was studied in all interactions of16O-emulsion. The interactions depending on the impact parameter (which is characteristic of the target component) are investigated.

Electromagnetic dissociation of relativistic heavy ions in emulsion

Inspire Record 335378 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.18594

We report the results on the electromagnetic dissociation of 14.5A GeV28Si and 200A GeV16O projectiles in nuclear emulsion. The overall charge changing production cross sections are determined experimentally and are found to agree reasonably well with those computed theoretically. The relative rate as a function of decay energy for various reaction channels are parameterized in terms of an exponential function. Majority of the events in the most prominent decay modes can be attributed to the excitation of giant dipole resonances. Multiplicity distributions of α particles emerged from nuclear as well as electromagnetic interactions are also investigated.

Electromagnetic dissociation.

The cross section is calculated from the relation sigma=f/ro*lambda, were ro=7.898*10**22 atoms per cm**3 and f is a weight factor which is unity for nuclear interactions produced by all the emulsion targets, for AG f=0.62.

Intranuclear cascading at ultrahigh-energy in heavy ion interactions

Z.Phys.C 52 (1991) 465-470, 1991.
Inspire Record 316804 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.14775

Intranuclear cascading mechanism one of the important non-linear effects in high energy nucleusnucleus collisions is investigated. The data on multiplicity (ns) and pseudorapidity (η) distributions of shower particles produced by32S and16O at 200A GeV,16O at 60A GeV,28Si at 14.5A GeV and He at ≈140A GeV are presented and compared with the string model VENUS, which takes into account the cascade interactions of secondary particles. The effect of the intranuclear collisions on the distributions of <η> versus <ns> is discussed for all the beams.

On the production of fast and slow particles in nucleus-nucleus collisions at ultrarelativistic energies

Inspire Record 315632 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.26111

Multiplicity and angular distributions of shower, grey, and black particles produced in the interactions of S32 at 200A GeV, O16 at 200 and 60A GeV, and He4 at ∼140A GeV in emulsion are compared with the predictions of a Monte Carlo code which takes into account the internuclear cascading. The correlations between the various parameters belonging to the same or to the different kinds of particles are discussed. The data on shower and grey particles from all the beams are well described by the code. However, the black prong data show a significant departure from this model.
