(e,e'f) Coincidence experiments on 235U and 238U
1990
Abstract Coincidence experiments for (e, e'f) on the actinide nuclei 235 U and 238 U have been performed at the Mainz Microtron (MAMI A) concentrating on three subjects: multipole strength distributions and form factors for the lowest multipolarities, the mass split in the fission decay of various giant multipole resonances, and the separation of near barrier fission channels. Data were taken at four values of momentum transfer ( q eff ≈ 0.20, 0.28, 0.53, and 0.71 fm −1 for 238 U, q eff ≈ 0.20, 0.44, 0.57, and 0.71 fm −1 for 235 U) for excitation energies ω = 4–22 MeV. The fission fragments have been detected using the Giessen PPAC-Ball. A model-independent multipole analysis yields both fo…
X-ray investigations of the superstructure of collagen
2008
When compared with results from humid fibers, characteristic changes of the SAXS-pattern taken from dried collagen fibers have been observed. The average lateral width of the various reflexions increases with the order of reflexion whereby a fluctuation is superimposed, the type of which cannot easily be related to the reflexion order. Moreover, each of the reflexions is obviously laterally split into three components. An explanation of these characteristics can be given with the aid of a distinct model, assuming that the collagen fibrils have definitely varying diameters along their axis, whereby paracrystalline distortions appear, represented by nematic fluctuations. Additionally, there i…
Investigation of the superstructure of native collagen by a combination of small angle X-ray scattering, electron microscopy and light diffraction
1978
It is shown that there exists a direct correlation between the light diffraction pattern of an electron-microscopical picture and the X-ray small angle scattering. By this means it can be proved for native collagen prepared by a special method that the density pattern of stained samples imaged in the electron microscopy is identical with the density pattern available from moist fibres. The reflex intensities of the small angle X-ray scattering are taken for calculating the density structure whereby the necessary phases are delivered by the electron microscopic examination combined with light diffraction.
Multipole strength distributions and form factors forE1,E2/E0, andE3 fromU238(e,e’f) coincidence experiments
1987
A model-independent multipole analysis of $^{238}\mathrm{U}$(e,e'f) coincidence data, taken at four momentum transfers (0.2\ensuremath{\le}${q}_{\mathrm{eff}\mathrm{\ensuremath{\le}}0.7}$ ${\mathrm{fm}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}1}$; \ensuremath{\omega}=4--22 MeV) yields both E1, E2/E0, and E3 form factors and strength distributions. The E2/E0 strength distribution in the fission channel shows two distinct bumps centered at \ensuremath{\omega}\ensuremath{\simeq}10 and 14 MeV, exhausting up to 12 MeV (19\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}2)% of the isoscalar E2 sum rule. The extracted form factors can be described within a hydrodynamical model by use of parameters ${c}_{\mathrm{tr}/{c}_{0}=1.2}$ and …
(e,e′f)-Coincidence Experiments on Uranium Isotopes
1986
(e,e′f)-coincidence experiments represent the most powerful tool to investigate the decay properties of giant multipole resonances, especially of the isoscalar giant quadrupole resonance (GQR), in heavy nuclei. Besides the advantages of the inelastic electron scattering, the coincidence between the fission fragments and the scattered electron causes a complete suppression of the huge radiation tail. The study of the fission decay of giant resonances in heavy nuclei provides interesting information about the coupling of the collective phenomena of fission and giant resonances. In particular the fission decay of the GQR has been subject of controversial experimental studies, using hadrons [1]…
