C15 : From halo effective field theory structure to the study of transfer, breakup, and radiative-capture reactions

Background: Aside from being a one-neutron halo nucleus, $^{15}\mathrm{C}$ is interesting because it is involved in reactions of relevance for several nucleosynthesis scenarios.Purpose: The aim of this work is to analyze various reactions involving $^{15}\mathrm{C}$, using a single structure model based on halo effective field theory (halo EFT) following the excellent results obtained in [P. Capel et al., Phys. Rev. C 98, 034610 (2018)].Method: To develop a halo-EFT model of $^{15}\mathrm{C}$ at next to leading order (NLO), we first extract the asymptotic normalization coefficient (ANC) of its ground state by analyzing $^{14}\mathrm{C}(d,p)^{15}\mathrm{C}$ transfer data at low energy using …

$^{15}$C: from Halo-EFT structure to the study of transfer, breakup and radiative-capture reactions

Aside from being a one-neutron halo nucleus, $^{15}$C is interesting because it is involved in reactions of relevance for several nucleosynthesis scenarios. The aim of this work is to analyze various reactions involving $^{15}$C, using a single structure model based on Halo EFT. To develop a Halo-EFT model of $^{15}$C at NLO, we first extract the ANC of its ground state by analyzing $^{14}$C(d,p)$^{15}$C transfer data at low energy. Using this Halo-EFT description, we study the $^{15}$C Coulomb breakup at high (605AMeV) and intermediate (68AMeV) energies using eikonal models with a consistent treatment of nuclear and Coulomb interactions at all orders, and proper relativistic corrections.

From Halo Effective Field Theory to the study of breakup and transfer reactions: reliably probing the halo structure of 11 Be and 15 C

Abstract In this work we study one-neutron halo nuclei, and in particular 11Be and 15C, which can be seen as an inert core of 10Be or 14C plus a loosely bound neutron. During the last decades several transfer and breakup reactions involving these systems have been measured on different targets and energies. We study these processes using one single structure model for each nucleus applying the halo effective field theory (Halo EFT) at next-to-leading order NLO. The main parameters of this EFT are adjusted on nuclear-structure data and/or ab initio predictions. We model the transfer reaction within the Adiabatic Distorted Wave Approximation (ADWA) and the breakup process applying an eikonal …

Reliable extraction of the dB(E1)/dE for 11Be from its breakup at 520 MeV/nucleon

We analyze the breakup of the one-neutron halo nucleus 11Be measured at 520 MeV/nucleon at GSI on Pb and C targets within an eikonal description of the reaction including a proper treatment of special relativity. The Coulomb term of the projectile-target interaction is corrected at first order, while its nuclear part is described at the optical limit approximation. Good agreement with the data is obtained using a description of 11Be, which fits the breakup data of RIKEN. This solves the apparent discrepancy between the dB(E1)/dE estimations from GSI and RIKEN for this nucleus.
