Nuclear-Structure Studies Of The Chromium Isotopes: The Cr50(P,P')Cr50 And Cr50(D,P)Cr51 Reactions, Stephen J. Mecca

Stephen J. Mecca

The Cr50(p,p’)Cr50 and Cr50(d,p)Cr51 reactions have been studied using 7.5-MeV protons and deuterons from the MIT-ONR electrostatic generator and the MIT multiple-gap spectrograph to analyze reaction protons. Fifteen levels in Cr50 up to an excitation energy of 3.929 MeV and 156 levels in Cr51 up to an excitation energy of 7.931 MeV were observed. The ground-state Q value for the (d,p) reaction was measured as 7.041±0.006 MeV. A zero-range, distorted-wave Born-approximation (DWBA) analysis was used to obtain values for the orbital angular momentum of the transferred neutrons …
