Asymptotic normalization coefficients and halo radii of12B in the excited states

subject

description

We present the results of measurements and analysis of the differential cross sections of the 11 B(d, p )12 B reaction leading to formation of the 1+ ground state and the 0.953-MeV 2+ , 1.674-MeV 2− , 2.621-MeV 1− , 2.723-MeV 0+ , 3.389-MeV 3− excited states of 12 B at Ed = 21.5 MeV. The analysis of the data was carried out within the coupled-reaction-channels method for the direct neutron transfer and the Hauser-Feshbach formalism of the statistical compound-nucleus model. We deduced the spectroscopic factors, asymptotic normalization coefficients, and rms radii of the last neutron in all states studied. The existence of the neutron halos in the 1.674-MeV 2− and 2.621-MeV 1− states was found in consistence with the earlier published data. New information about the enlarged rms radii (6.5 fm) of the last neutron in the unbound 3.389-MeV 3− states of 12 B was obtained, which may indicate the evidence of the neutron halo with the orbital momentum of the last neutron equal to two.
