Primary-residue production cross sections and kinetic energies in 1AGeV 208Pb on deuteron reactions

subject

description

Abstract The production cross sections and the kinematical properties of primary residual nuclei have been studied in the reaction 208 Pb(1  A  GeV)+d. Isotopic distributions were measured for all elements from titanium ( Z =22) to lead ( Z =82). The measured kinematical properties of the residues were also used to disentangle the relevant reaction mechanisms, spallation–evaporation and spallation–fission. The fragment separator FRS at GSI, Darmstadt, was used to separate and identify the reaction products. The measured quantities are important for the design and planning of future radioactive-beam facilities and accelerator-driven systems. The measured data of the present work are comprehensively compared with the experimental data from the reaction 208 Pb(1  A  GeV)+p.
