Interaction of 350-keV Polarized Neutrons with OrientedHo165Nuclei

Abstract: The interaction of polarized and unpolarized 350-keV neutrons with oriented and unoriented 165 Ho nuclei was investigated in order to study the effect of nuclear deformation and to search for a possible spinspin interaction. The ORNL 3-MV pulsed and bunched Van de Graaff proton beam was used in conjunction with a time-of-flight spectrometer. The 7 Li(p,n) reaction at a laboratory angle of 51° provided a source of 55% polarized, 350-keV neutrons. Using the NBS transportable 3 He refrigerator, a single crystal … Show more

“…2 and 3 were measured in a different nuclear orientation LB 2 /B 2 (max)« -0.25] with negligible uncertainty in the nuclear-orientation parameters. The apparent discrepancy between the present results and the results of Wagner et al 2 at 0.350 MeV is not understood. The application of the permissible 20% scale change to the present data, as discussed above, is not sufficient to resolve the discrepancy.…”

“…It has been frequently used to study "deformation effects" in nuclei with x-ray [12], neutron [32,33], electron [34 -36], and pion [37] probes. At temperatures below 100 mK, the nuclear spin axes of the holmium nuclei are almost completely aligned in the basal planes of the crystal lattice [38), so that a single-crystalline sample can be aligned with the symmetry axis in a plane perpendicular to the beam direction without the use of an external magnetic Beld.…”

“…A possible influence of deformation on the interaction can then only be deduced from a comparison of at least two different projectile-target systems with a definite change in projectile or target deformation. By performing experiments using this idea the influence of the spectroscopic deformation of holmium on the total neutron cross section [6,7] and on p-and ~-backscattering [8,9] was demonstrated. Another difficulty is that the contribution of the grazing partial waves to the interaction is most sensitive to the features of the interaction barrier.…”
