In conjunction with Eljen Technology, Inc. (Sweetwater,TX) we have designed, constructed, and evaluated a 3 in. x 3 in. deuteratedxylene organic liquid scintillator (C 8 D 10 ; EJ301D) as a fast neutron detector. Similar to deuterated benzene (C 6 D 6 ; NE230, BC537, and EJ315) this scintillator can provide good pulse-shape discrimination between neutrons and gamma rays, has good timing characteristics, and can provide a light spectrum with peaks corresponding to discrete neutron energy groups up to ca. 20 MeV. Unlike benzene-based detectors, deuterated xylene is less volatile, less toxic, is not known to be carcinogenic, has a higher flashpoint, and hence is much safer for many applications. In addition EJ301D can provide slightly more light output and better PSD than deuterated-benzene scintillators. We show that, as with deuterated-benzene scintillators, the

“…Several experiments have been performed to study the spectroscopic factors or ANCs of 14 N → 13 C + p through the 13 C(d, n) [10,11], 13 C( 3 He, d) [12][13][14], 13 C( 7 Li, 6 He) [15] and 13 C( 14 N, 13 C) [16] reactions. The spectroscopic factors and ANCs extracted from these measurements deviate in varying degrees, especially for the first excited state in 14 N. In order to clarify the discrepancy, new measurement is still needed.…”

The 13 C( 7 Li, 6 He) 14 N0,1 reactions were measured at E( 7 Li) = 34 MeV with the Q3D magnetic spectrometer of the HI-13 tandem accelerator, and the first peaks of the angular distributions were obtained for the first time. The 14 N0,1 proton spectroscopic factors were extracted to be 0.67 ± 0.09 and 0.73 ± 0.10, respectively. Using the 13 C(p, γ) 14 N direct capture S dc (E) factors derived by the spectroscopic factors, the direct measurement data for both 1 − and 0 − resonances were well fitted via updating the resonance parameters, and then the total astrophysical 13 C(p, γ) 14 N S(E) factors and reaction rates were determined at stellar energies. The present work offers an independent examination to the existing results of the 13 C(p, γ) 14 N reaction.

“…Since deuteron and 3 He have reliable proton spectroscopic factors, the (d, n) [1,2] and ( 3 He, d) [3∼5] reactions are generally used for indirect measurement of proton capture reactions. The breakup of deuteron and 3 He, however, should be taken into account in data analysis.…”

The 13 C( 7 Li, 6 He) 14 N reaction is measured at E( 7 Li) = 34 MeV with the Q3D magnetic spectrometer of HI-13 tandem accelerator. Angular distributions at forward angles for proton transfer to the ground and the first excited states in 14 N are obtained. In addition, angular distribution for 7 Li + 13 C elastic scattering is also measured. The optical potential parameters for the entrance and exit channels of the transfer reactions are derived by fitting the 7 Li + 13 C and 6 Li + 14 N elastic scattering experimental data, and their angular distributions are well reproduced by the distorted wave Born approximation calculations. A phase shift of about 2 • between the calculations and the experiment data has been found in the earlier ( 7 Li, 6 He) study, whereas no such phase shift is observed in the present work.
