Halo-like structure in 7He nucleus
2020
A study of the neutron structure of the ground state of 7He has been performed by means of registration and analysis of the decay channels of the residual nuclei following absorption of stopped pions. In particular, the reaction 9Be (${\pi }_{}^{-},d$)X have been investigated where X denotes any system with five neutrons and two protons – the constituencies of a 7He nucleus. It was shown that the structure of 7He is determined by correlations of two neutrons in the states 6He (0+), 6He (2+) and one neutron in the shell p3/2. The 4He+3n structure is not manifested in the ground state of 7He. The obtained results are consistent with the known data on considerable mixture of configurations "6H…
Translationally invariant coupled cluster method in coordinate space for nuclei
2002
We study a formulation of the translationally invariant coupled cluster method in coordinate space for finite nuclei. The new formulation remedies convergence problems that plagued previous calculations in configuration space. The method is applied to light nuclei using semi-realistic central interactions.
Superallowed α Decay to Doubly Magic 100Sn
2018
We report the first observation of the 108Xe→104Te→100Sn α-decay chain. The α emitters, 108Xe [Eα=4.4(2) MeV, T1/2=58+106−23 μs] and 104Te [Eα=4.9(2) MeV, T1/2<18 ns], decaying into doubly magic 100Sn were produced using a fusion-evaporation reaction 54Fe(58Ni,4n)108Xe, and identified with a recoil mass separator and an implantation-decay correlation technique. This is the first time α radioactivity has been observed to a heavy self-conjugate nucleus. A previous benchmark for study of this fundamental decay mode has been the decay of 212Po into doubly magic 208Pb. Enhanced proton-neutron interactions in the N=Z parent nuclei may result in superallowed α decays with reduced α-decay wi…
