Systematic analysis of the peripherality of the Be10(d,p)Be11 transfer reaction and extraction of the asymptotic normalization coefficient of Be11 bo…
2018
We reanalyze the experiment of Schmitt et al. on the $^{10}\mathrm{Be}(d,p)^{11}\mathrm{Be}$ transfer reaction [Phys. Rev. Lett. 108, 192701 (2012)] by exploring the beam-energy and angular ranges at which the reaction is strictly peripheral. We consider the adiabatic distorted wave approximation (ADWA) to model the reaction and use a Halo-EFT description of $^{11}\mathrm{Be}$ to systematically explore the sensitivity of our calculations to the short-range physics of the $^{10}\mathrm{Be}\ensuremath{-}n$ wave function. We find that by selecting the data at low beam energy and forward scattering angle the calculated cross sections scale nearly perfectly with the asymptotic normalization coef…
C15 : From halo effective field theory structure to the study of transfer, breakup, and radiative-capture reactions
2019
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 …
From Halo Effective Field Theory to the study of breakup and transfer reactions: reliably probing the halo structure of 11 Be and 15 C
2020
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 …
First Exploration of Neutron Shell Structure below Lead and beyond N=126
2020
The nuclei below lead but with more than 126 neutrons are crucial to an understanding of the astrophysical r process in producing nuclei heavier than A∼190. Despite their importance, the structure and properties of these nuclei remain experimentally untested as they are difficult to produce in nuclear reactions with stable beams. In a first exploration of the shell structure of this region, neutron excitations in ^{207}Hg have been probed using the neutron-adding (d,p) reaction in inverse kinematics. The radioactive beam of ^{206}Hg was delivered to the new ISOLDE Solenoidal Spectrometer at an energy above the Coulomb barrier. The spectroscopy of ^{207}Hg marks a first step in improving our…
$^{15}$C: from Halo-EFT structure to the study of transfer, breakup and radiative-capture reactions
2019
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.
