B8proton halo via reaction and breakup cross section measurements

Abstract: The reaction cross section for 8 B and 7 Be and the breakup cross section for 8 B on silicon have been measured for incident energies between 10 and 40 MeV/nucleon with a stack of silicon detectors. Secondary 8 B and 7 Be beams were obtained by use of the LISE spectrometer at GANIL. The stack of silicon detectors had the multiple purpose of slowing down the incident secondary beams, identifying the reaction products, and measuring their energy. The separate contributions of diffraction dissociation and absorpt… Show more

“…In the present paper, first we use the well studied case of 8 B breakup as a benchmark to demonstrate the usefulness of the method and show the possibilia e-mail: livius trache@tamu.edu ties of the Glauber reaction model used. We show that existing experimental data at energies between 30 and 1000 MeV/nucleon [6,7,8,9, 10] on a range of light and heavy targets translate into consistent values of the ANC, which is then used to determine the astrophysical factor S 17 (which gives the reaction rate for the 7 Be(p, γ) 8 B reaction of crucial importance for the solar neutrino question). We show that the precision of the method is limited to about 10% by our ability to compute absolute cross sections.…”

“…Proton halos have been reliably identified for only two nuclei, 8 B [11,12] and 17 F [13][14][15]. In both cases, the state with a halo lies in a discrete spectrum.…”

“…Many neutron-halo nuclei are discovered, such as 6 He, 11 Li, 11 Be, 14 Be 17 B, 19 C and only three proton-halo nuclei are experimentally observed, namely 8 B, 12 N and 17 Ne [1,2]. A typical characteristic of halo structure is one or more valence nucleons surrounding a tightly bound core nucleus very extensively due to the loosely bound of the valence nucleons [3].…”

“…It has attracted intense experimental and theoretical attentions because of the exotic structure and its astrophysical significance [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. The enhanced total reaction cross sections have been measured and the theoretical analysis based on them indicates a quite significant extension of the last proton beyond that of the core, at least a weakly developed proton halo or skin due to the Coulomb and centrifugal potential [13][14][15][16][17]. A quite large quadruple moment was measured for 8 B in Ref.…”
