The g factor of the 2⁺₁ state of ¹⁷⁰Hf was measured by perturbed γ-γ angular correlation in a static external magnetic ﬁeld. The result, g(2⁺₁) = 0.28(5), extends the systematics of g factors of even-even Hf isotopes to N = 98 and enables a better test of theoretical models. The g(2⁺₁) experimental values of these isotopes exhibit a remarkable constancy as a function of neutron number. This phenomenon, which was also observed for other isotopic chains in the Gd–W range, is explained in terms of a recently proposed empirical …

High-spin states of ^{191, 193}Au and ¹⁹²Pt have been populated in the ¹⁸⁶W(¹¹B, xn) and ¹⁸⁶W(¹¹B, p4n) reactions, respectively, at a beam energy of 68 MeV and their γ decay was studied using the YRAST Ball detector array at the Wright Nuclear Structure Laboratory at Yale University. The level scheme of ¹⁹³Au has been extended up to I^π = 55/2⁺. New transitions were observed also in ¹⁹¹Au and ¹⁹²Pt. Particle-plus-Triaxial-Rotor (PTR) and Total Routhian Surface (TRS) calculations were performed to determine the equilibrium deformations of the …

Absolute And Relative Surrogate Measurements Of The 236U(N,F) Cross Section As A Probe Of Angular Momentum Effects, B. F. Lyles, L. A. Bernstein, J. T. Burke, F. S. Dietrich, J. Escher, I.

Using both the absolute and relative surrogate techniques, the ²³⁶U(n,f) cross section was deduced over an equivalent neutron energy range of 0 to 20 MeV. A 42 MeV ³He beam from the 88 Inch Cyclotron at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory was used to perform a (³He,α) pickup reaction on targets of ²³⁵U (J^π=7/2⁻) and ²³⁸U (J^π = 0⁺) and the fission decay probabilities were determined. The ²³⁵U(³He,αf) and ²³⁸U(³He,αf) were surrogates for ^{233 …}

The combined data of two Coulomb excitation experiments has verified the purely electromagnetic population of the K^π = 4⁺, 6⁺, 8⁻, and 16⁺rotational bands in ¹⁷⁸Hf via 2≤ν ≤14 K-forbidden transitions, quantifying the breakdown of the K-selection rule with increasing spin in the low-K bands. The γ -, 4⁺, and 6⁺bands were extended, and four new states in a rotational band were tentatively assigned to a previously known K^π = 0⁺band. The quasiparticle structure of the 6⁺( …

Isospin Purity Of T=1 States In The A=38 Nuclei Studied Via Lifetime Measurements In K38, F. M. Prados Estevez, A. M. Bruce, M. J. Taylor, H. Amro, C. W. Beausang, R. F. Casten, J. J. Ressler, C. J. Barton, C. Chandler, G. Hammond

The Doppler Shift Attenuation Method was used to measure lifetimes for levels in 38K at excitation energies of 1698, 2404, 2830, 2996, and 3671 keV, populated using the 40Ca(d, α) 38K reaction at a beam energy of 4.5 MeV. Values of 109(29), 95(22), 457(63), 130(40), and 160(50) fs, respectively, were measured and are compared with previous values obtained using different stopping powers. The matrix element for the transition between the Jπ = 2+ T=1 and 0+ T=1 states in this Tz = 0 nucleus is compared with the analogous transition in the other nuclei in the T = 1 triplet, …

Quark-Hadron Duality In Spin Structure Functions G(1)(P) And G(1)(D), P. E. Bosted, K. V. Dharmawardane, G. E. Dodge, T. A. Forest, S. E. Kuhn, Y. Prok, G. Adams, M. Amarian, P. Ambrozewicz, M.

New measurements of the spin structure functions of the proton and deuteron g(1)(p)(x,Q²) and g(1)(d)(x,Q²) in the nucleon resonance region are compared with extrapolations of target-mass-corrected next-to-leading-order (NLO) QCD fits to higher energy data. Averaged over the entire resonance region (W <2 >GeV), the data and QCD fits are in good agreement in both magnitude and Q² dependence for Q²>1.7 GeV²/c². This "global" duality appears to result from cancellations among the prominent "local" resonance regions: in particular strong ^{σ …}

Form Factors And Wave Functions Of Vector Mesons In Holographic Qcd, Hovhannes R. Grigoryan, Anatoly V. Radyushkin

Physics Faculty Publications

Within the framework of a holographic dual model of QCD, we develop a formalism for calculating form factors of vector mesons. We show that the holographic bound states can be described not only in terms of eigenfunctions of the equation of motion, but also in terms of conjugate wave functions that are close analogues of quantum-mechanical bound state wave functions. We derive a generalized VMD representation for form factors, and find a very specific VMD pattern, in which form factors are essentially given by contributions due to the first two bound states in the Q² -channel. We calculate electric …

Experimental Study Of Exclusive ²H(E,E'P)N Reaction Mechanisms At High Q², S. E. Kuhn, M. J. Amaryan, H. Bagdasaryan, M. Bektasoglu, S. L. Careccia, K. V. Dharmawardane, G. E. Dodge, N. Guler, C. E.

The reaction ²H(e,e(')p)n has been studied with full kinematic coverage for photon virtuality 1.75 < Q²< 5.5 GeV². Comparisons of experimental data with theory indicate that for very low values of neutron recoil momentum (p_n< 100 MeV/c) the neutron is primarily a spectator and the reaction can be described by the plane-wave impulse approximation. For 100 < p_n< 750 MeV/c, proton-neutron rescattering dominates the cross section, while Delta production followed by the NΔ → NN transition is the primary contribution at higher momenta.
