In the present work measurements to determine the differential cross section values for the elastic scattering of 3He on 16O and 27Al were carried out at the Ruđer Bošković Institute (RBI) Tandem Accelerator Facility in Zagreb, Croatia, covering the E3He,lab=3500-5600 keV energy range, using four Silicon Surface Barrier (SSB) detectors positioned at the backscattering angles of 130°, 145°, 157.7° and 165ο. The target was constructed at the facility and was comprised of a thin, self-supporting aluminum foil, upon which a thin layer of natB (isotopic ratio: 11B 80.1%, 10B 19.9%), along with 12C, 14N, 16O, was deposited using the sputtering technique. In addition, an ultra-thin layer of 197Au was evaporated on top for wear protection and normalization purposes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
