“…In compound [5][6][7][8], quasielastic [9], and deeply inelastic reactions [10][11][12][13][14][15], the reaction orbital angular momentum, L, dwarfs any intrinsic spin carried by the projectile or target. The exit-channel fragments acquire spin from the large reservoir of L and thus are characterized by transverse alignments with small projections on the beam-axis.…”

Large Longitudinal Spin Alignment of Excited Projectiles in Intermediate Energy Inelastic Scattering

et al. 2017

We study the sequential breakup of E/A=24.0 MeV ^{7}Li projectiles excited through inelastic interactions with C, Be, and Al target nuclei. For peripheral events that do not excite the target, we find very large spin alignment of the excited ^{7}Li projectiles longitudinal to the beam axis. This spin alignment is independent of the target used, and we propose a simple alignment mechanism that arises from an angular-momentum-excitation-energy mismatch. This mechanism is independent of the potential used for scattering and should be present in many scattering experiments.

Sequential fission angular distributions from mass-asymmetric heavy-ion reactions

et al. 1985

Abstract:The angular distributions of sequential fission fragments have been measured for the reactions of 40 Ar with ~97AU and 23 8 u as a function of reaction Qvalue and charge transfer. These angular distributions are used to study the an6ular momentum and alignment of the deep-inelastic products which undergo fission. All of the fission fragment angular distributions are strongly focused into the plane defined by the beam and the projectile-liKe fragment velocity vectors. The in-plane angular distributions from reactions with uranium are isotropic for small energy losses and become anisotropic as the energy loss increases. For large negative Q-values, the in-plane anisotropy increases as the deep-inelastic products become more symmetric. The variation of the in-plane anisotropy with mass asymmetry for the two systems in this worK was compared to a compilation of previous work and a consistent pattern was found. These alignment data are compared to equilibrium statistical calculations.NUCLEAR REACTIONS: 197 AU , 238 u 40 Ar , HI f) Ea 340 MeV; measured sequential fission angular distributions ~(e,~), in-plane and out-of-plane.
