Study of isobaric analogue resonances in65Cu by proton scattering from64Ni

Abstract

Excitation functions of the elastic proton scattering by 64Ni were measured in the energy range Ep = 5.0-6.2 MeV at 90 ~ 125 ~ and 141 ~ and in the energy intervals 5.00-5.25 MeV at 110 ~ and 160 ~ At 90 ~ the excitation function of the inelastic proton scattering leading to the 2 + (1.34 MeV) state in 64Ni was measured too. Out of tile ten resonances found in the whole energy range, the resonances at 5.105, 5.985, 6.042 and 5.35 MeV were studied in more detail. The analysis of the elastic scattering provided the energy, orbital momentum, total and partial widths of the first three resonances. The inelastic scattering cross section for the last three resonances was sufficient to permit the spin determination by (p, P'7) angular correlations in the Goldfarb-Seyler geometry. The spectroscopic factors Spp are in good agreement with those obtained from (d, p) experiments. The resonance at 5.35 MeV exhibits an important 2p @2 + amplitude in its wave function. Its inelastic partial widths and the corresponding spectroscopic factors Spp, were determined. The nonresonant background in the elastic channel is well described by shape and compound elastic scattering calculations with Percy's optical model parameters.
