THE MEASUREMENT OF LIGHT PARTICLE EMISSION FROM ¹²C+¹⁵⁹Tb, Ag AND ⁸⁹Y REACTIONS

Abstract：

The energy spectra and angular distributions of α-particle emitted from ¹²C-induced reactions with ¹⁵⁹Tb, Ag and ⁸⁹Y targets have been measured. Meanwhile the emitted deutron's angular distributions with ¹⁵⁹Tb and ⁸⁹Y targets and proton's with ⁸⁹Y target have been also obtained.
The α-energy spectra associated with mentioned reactions have bell-like shape with probable energy near coulomb barrier. However, the main characteristic of the α-angular distribution for ¹⁵⁹Tb and Ag targets is peaked at or near the grazing angles. For the case of ⁸⁹Y target, α-differential cross-sections monotonically decrease with angles beyond 40º. The angular distributions of potons and deutrons nearly decrease exponentially.
The measured α-angular distributions could be divided into two components, one coming from α-evaporation is isotropic, another is anisotropic. The anisotropic component may be explained incomplete-fusion process in which the cross-section can be reproduced by a "Sum-Rule Model" due to J.Wliczynski.
In order to explain the anisotropic component of emitted α-particle, we propose in complete fusion model with a strong-damped sticking rotation, in which the rotation angles and interaction time of the composite system are also estimated.
