MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY ROBERT ALTON PA‘DDOCK 1969 THESIS ABSTRACT A STUDY OF THE ENERGY LEVELS OF 18Ne, 22Mg, 26s1, 305, 3“Ar, AND 380a BY THE (p,t) REACTION By Robert Alton Paddock A study of the (p,t) reaction on the even-even N=Z nuclei in the 2sld shell has been carried out. This reaction has been used to study the energy levels of 18Ne, 22Mg, 2681, 308, 34 Ar and 38Ca. Until recently little has been reported about these nuclei. Except for a few scattered reports of (p,t) experiments, only the (3He,n) and (3He,ny) reactions have been used to study these nuclei. The excited states that were observed are reported along with the spin and parity assignments when possible. The two nucleon transfer distorted wave theory of N. K. Glendenning has been studied with respect to these (p,t) reactions. It was found that the shapes of the predicted angular distributions are primarily dependent on the orbital angular momentum transfer and the Optical model parameters. This fact was used to make the spin- parity assignments. It was also found that the magni- tudes of the predicted cross-sections are strongly dependent on not only the Optical model parameters, but Robert Alton Paddock also the bound state parameters of the transferred neu- trons and the configuration mixing in the initial and final nuclear wave functions. It is concluded that the (p,t) reaction is useful to study the energy levels of nuclei two nucleons away from stability. It is also concluded that the two nucleon transfer distorted wave theory is useful to pre- dict the general shapes of angular distributions but that the magnitudes are too dependent on parameters which are not well known to be predicted successfully.

The targets studied were the even—even, N=Z nuclei in the 2sld shell. In particular, the targets were 2ONe, 2“M 328, 36Ar and uoCa, which all have Jfl=0+ ground B, 2881, states. These (p,t) reactions reach states in nuclei which are two nucleons away from stability. Until recently these nuclei had not been studied to any great extent. The same nuclei can in general also be reached by the (3He,n) reaction, and recently work has been done in this area. Reports of the study of these nuclei with the (p,t) reaction have been scattered and sparce until now. This is most probably due to the large negative Q-values (~-20MeV) and small cross-sections involved, which necessitates a high energy, high intensity proton beam of good resolution such as the Michigan State Uni- versity Sector Focused Cyclotron is capable of producing. The (p,t) reaction and other two nucleon transfer reactions have been previously used to study nuclei in the light mass region by experimenters such as Cerny and (Ce6U, F168, Ga6A)‘ his co-workers This reaction has also been uSed in the medium to heavy mass region by experimenters such as Hintz and his co-workers(Ba6ua’ 3365’ 8&68’ Ma66b, R867). These workers have all re- ported that the shapes of the angular distributions of the tritons are very much characteristic of the orbital angular momentun transfer of the reaction. I The two nucleon transfer reaction in general and the (p,t) reaction in particular have some very re- strictive selection.ru1es (see Chapter 2) which make spin—parity assignments to the final nuclear states quite unambiguous. This is primarily based on the fact that the shapes of the angular distributions of the tritons from the (p,t) reaction are to a great extent dominated by the orbital angular momentum transfer of the reaction. This dependence will be further investi- gated in later chapters of this work. Two nucleon transfer theories have been developed which allow the (p,t) reaction to be treated by the direct reaction distorted wave method (see Chapter 3). It was therefore decided to study such a theory, in par— (@165) ticular the theory of Glendenning , and to investi- gate the ability of this theory to predict the observed angular distributions. In particular, the dependence of such a theory on the initial and final state wave func- tions and the bound state wave functions has been studied in Chapter 7. CHAPTER 2 SELECTION RULES FOR (p,t) The two nucleon transfer reaction in general and the two neutron pickup reaction in particular have some very special and restrictive selection rules. These rules have been discussed in detail e1sewhere (3.1.3) V is the interaction which causes the reaction, i.e. carries the system from one elastic scattering state to another. In the distorted wave formalism of reference V Sa6u, T can be written as follows: -> ->- (_)* + *- TDw = g 2' draA drbB x ' (kb,rb) (3.1.A) m m a m! b mb b x(+) (R F ) B B b b A'A a a m' m a’ a a a denotes the Jacobian of the transformation from the + individual coordinates to the relative coordinate raA + and rbB' It is convenient to expand the matrix element of equation (3.1.“) in terms corresponding to particular angular momentum transfer. We define the transferred quantities as follows: +++ J=JB-JA, S=sa-sb, J=L+S (3.1.5) We write the expansion as follows including the appro- priate Clebsh-Gordan coupling coefficients. (a s gcyn (3.1.6) IJ, M —M > = z (fl) i ALSJ(Bb, Aa) + + fLSJ,M(rbB’ raA) ; where M = MB + mb - MA - ma The product ALSJfLSJ,M is often called the form factor for the reaction. We substitute this expansion into equation (3.1.“) and define a reduced amplitude B as in equation (13) of reference Sa6u. _ 1/2 TDw - g (2J+1) (3.1.7) LMm m z A B b a + + LS LSJ SJ (kb,ka) Taking the absolute square of TDw and summing over the projections indicated in equation (3.1.2), along with symmetry and completeness relations for the Clebsh-Gordan coefficients from reference R067, we get: 2- lele — 2 (21B JMmbma LS LMm m 2 +1)|2: ALSJ BSJ b aI (3.1.8) Substitution into equation (3.1.2) gives the follow- ing expression for the differential cross-section. 10 do _ “a“b kb (2JB+1) LMm m 2 dB ‘ " 2 2 k Z '2 ALBJ BSJ b al (2Tb ) a (2J +1)(2s +1) JMm m LS A a b a (3.1-9) If only one L and S are important, this reduces to the following: 2 £2 = 2JB+1 z [ALSJI o (e) (3 1 10) d9 2JA+1 J (2sa+1) LSJ ' ' Where we have defined the reduced cross-section as follows: A u k _ a b b LMm m 2 °LSJ(9)"“'““2'2 k" X I 8SJ 0 3' (2Nh ) a Mmbma (3.1.11) It is this reduced cross-section that is calculated by a distorted wave computer code such as JULIE + LSJ,M(rbB’raA , * radial function FLSJ’ a spherical harmonic Y M L and a . + -> three dimensional 6—function in rbB and raA' 3.2 The Two Neutron Pickup Matrix Element We now must evaluate the matrix element 0’); of equa- tion (3.1.6) explicitly for the two neutron pickup ll reaction. The method of dealing with this matrix ele- ment for the case of two nucleon transfer has been developed by several workers(G165a L15“, Ba6Ab, He6Aa, Ab66s L166: Br67). We will follow the method of (C165) Glendenning along with some of the details, ex— tensions and notation of Jaffe and Gerace GI? = ng dga dgx 1pJBMI3(EB) wsbmb(rax’ga’€x) V(r’ax) m a 1P (5 Jr” ,5 > A (g) (3.2.3) JAMA B xB x 3a a The E's denote the internal coordinates (spin and spatial if appropriate) of the respective particles.

(M -M ) + A B GAB (pr’gx) * -> (3.2.A) G is then expanded in terms of normalized two AB particle eigenfunctions of scme potential well. In particular, we choose the product wave functions of the two neutrons to be transferred denoted by coordinates and -+ -> + -> TFF. spins r r O, and 02 (”Gde). 1B’ 2B’ (MA-MB) GAB = €38 bYaYBLSJ LSJ ‘ ¢yayBLSJ (rlB’r2B’Ol’O2) (3'2'5) (M —M ) i i -M M -M +M A B A B T = Z [A (r )¢ (r )1 x * * YOYBLSJ M Yoga 1B YBQB 2B L 3 (01,02) (3.2.6) The brackets [ ] denote vector coupling of the orbital parts of the two neutron wave functions, and XS is the coupled spin part. The Clebsh—Gordan coefficient assures the prOper coupling to a specific total angular momentum J,M. We note here that T is an L-S coupled two particle 13 wave function. The sum over a and 8 implies a sum over all configurations of the two neutrons needetho describe this overlap GAB’ Since the interaction is assumed to depend on the center of mass coordinate of the two neutrons, we must perform a transformation to the coordinates of the pro- duct wave function T. This is most easily carried out with harmonic oscillator wave functions where the trans- formation coefficients are calculable in closed form. We expand the O's in terms of harmonic oscillator wave + function Onl(a,r) where a is the usual oscillator strength parameter. u) (r) = au 0 (O,;) 1 (3.2.7) I d) p Y 119. 72 Equation (3.2.6) becomes: (M “M ) .+ ”M A B u v * T = Z Z a a [O (a,r )O (O,r )] YaYBLSJ M uv ya YB uia 1B vRB 2B L Xs (8r02) (3.2.8) The well known Moshinsky-Talmi transformation can now be applied to the oscillator wave functions to trans- form them to relative and center of mass coordinates , 3 M, uv YO YB nANA a B + 9 [Onl(a/2’ r12) 9NA(‘“’ _. .4 MA MB+L X (3 3 ) S 1’ 2 LL, A.

The relative orbital angular momentum of the two neu- trons in the triton is also zero indicated by the first factor of equation (3.2.15) and mentioned in Chapter 2.

Making the explicit substitution of Glendenning _equations (3.2.12), (3.2.13) and (3.2.15) into equation (3.2.11), the integral can be evaluated making use of the orthonormality of the spin wave functions and the completeness of the Clebsh-Gordan coefficients. We note that the total projection (-M) of the coupled oscillator wave functions can be assigned to GNA since i=0 only 17 for OnA and thus enA can carry no projection. Also since A=0, then A must equal L. At the same time, we factor the oscillator wave function into two parts. -M + “M A 2 GNL (2d, pr) = RNL (2apr) YL (pr) (3.2.17) Evaluating the integral of equation (3.2.11) we get: = _ I ayn <58 by y LSJ Ay y L E YL (pr) V YaYBL “V Ya Y8 nN a B Q (a n) R (2ar2 ) (3 2 19) n ’ NL xB ' ' Using the symmetry progerties of the Clebsh-Gordan coefficients and some prOperties of the spherical har— monics, equation (3:2.18) can be put into a form that can be compared with equation (3.1.6).

We can now interprete the b's as a measure of how much the final nucleus plus the two neutrons looks like the target nucleus. The b's are then a measure of the. probability of picking two particular neutrons out of the target and reaching a particularfinal state of the residual nucleus. The "cross-section" for this component of the reaction is thus proportional to the square of b. In actuality there may be several possible neu- trons which are available to be picked up in this one 2“ manner, so we must multiply the "cross-section" for this part of the reaction by the number of ways that the neu- trons can be picked up in this manner. If both neutrons are picked up from a group of N identical neutrons (such as from the same shell model orbit containing N neutrons), then this factor is the combinatorial factor denoted by (g). The general eXpression for a combination factor is given in equation (3.“.“). (I?) = (TEETH (3.“.“) If the two neutrons are picked up from different groups (such as from different shell model orbits), then this factor is just 2NaNBwhere N2 (3°“°6) YaYe B YaYB A We have essentially rewritten equation (3.“.3) in a simplified notation and included the statistical factor. We see that the b YGYB (G165) 's are analogous to the BY '3 LSJ LSJT of Glendenning In order to proceed further with the calculation of the parentage factors we must choose a particular model with which to describe the wave func- tions of equation (3.“.6). We choose a j-j coupled shell model since it is quite often used and its concept is fairly easy to grasp. Since by is a L-S coupled .aYB two particle wave function, we must transform it to j-j LSJ coupling. We make use of the Wigner 9-J coeffi- (Br62, Sh63) cients IL01. SO.

A In order to calculate the parentage factors, we must consider the particular shell model space used in calculating lwA2 and IwB>. As an example we will consider the case where the nucleons are limited to two shells outside a closed core. This will allow the possibility of picking up the nucleons from either the same shell or two different shells. Therefore, such an example will cover the essentials of this type calculation since in a direct reaction description of two nucleon pickup these are the only two possibilities. (So far we have avoided the explicit introduction of isospin since we are pri- marily concerned in this work with two identical particles which we know are neutrons. Often shell model wave func- tions are calculated with isospin explicitly included (see reference 016“ for example), therefore we will now introduce isospin. In the example we have chosen to consider, the wave function of the target nucleus can be written as in equation (3.“.9). N NAB TA lw > a 2 CA [IY AC!

Here Y represents the particular shell (such as ld5/2’ 281/2, or 1d3/2) and N is the number of nucleons in that shell. There is, of course, the restriction that NAa+NAB equals the number of nucleons outside the core. J, T, and x represent respectively the angular momentum, isospin and any other quantum numbers which might be needed to make the descrip- tion of the state unique. The core is assumed to have zero angular momentum, isospin and isospin projection, and 1 and therefore JA’ T are the quantum numbers of A A the total nuclear state. The total wave function must have definite isospin projection TA but the individual active shells do not. The square brackets denote vector coupling, and 58 represents a sum over all different possible configurations of the active nucleons in these two shells with amplitude C2 The final state can be 8' written in\the same way.

Case I N N = N + 2 AB = NBB’ Aa Ba In this case both particles came from the same shell. In order to proceed we must decouple the nucleons to be transferred from the target wave functions by means of a fractional parentage expansion defined in the following equation.

The relative phase of the components (i.e. the phases of the CaB's ) of the wave functions contributing are important since they add coherently in “l. calculating the B's and the B's add coherently in cal- ‘culating the sum of equation (3.3.“) to form the total form factor. CHAPTER “ THE EXPERIMENT “.1 The Proton Beam The Michigan State University Sector Focused Cyclotron was used to provide a beam of protons of energy “0 MeV to “5 MeV. The beam was energy analyzed and spatially defined by two “5° bending magnets and three pairs of slits. The beam resolution was ~“O keV, as calculated from the measured magnetic fields and slit apertures. The details of this transport system have been discussed in reference Ma67. After analysis, the beam was bent through 22 l/2° and sent through a shielding wall to an experimental vault and a 36" scattering chamber. Quadrupole focusing magnets were used at apprOpriate locations along the evacuated beam line. The magnetic fields of the analyzing magnets were measured by N.M.R. probes and from these measurements the proton energy was calculated. The magni- tudes of the quadrupole fields were also calculated for the particular beam energy used. Fine adjustments in some of the quadrupoles were made by visual observation of the beam spot on plastic scintilators in the beam line. “2 “3 Particular attention was paid to the beam spot at the target position in the scattering chamber. “.2 The Faraday Cup and Charge Collection The beam exiting from the back of the scattering chamber was stopped and collected in an aluminum Faraday cup. The beam current was monitored, and the total charge collected was measured with an ELCOR model A310B current indicator and integrator. The beam current was varied depending upon the particular scattering angle. At forward angles the elastic proton counting rate and the counting rate capability of the electronics limited the usable beam current to as little as S n.A. in some cases. At back- ward angles the beam current was generally limited by the cyclotron to about 500 n.A. The normal range of the beam current was 50 n.A. to 250 n.A. “.3 The Scattering Chamber A 36" diameter evacuated scattering chamber was used. The target post at the center was capable of .supporting either a ladder for solid foil targets or a gas cell target. The detector telescope was mounted on a remotely movable arm and, in the case of foil targets, a monitor counter was mounted on a relocatable stationary arm. The position of the movable arm had a remote read ““ out which was accurate and reproducible to about O.15°. A viewing port in the side of the chamber allowed visual inspection of the beam spot on the plastic scintilator at the position of the target by means of a closed cir- cuit television system. “.“ Targets 2ONe target was a 3" diameter gas cell with The 1/2 mil Kapton* windows. The gas was natural neon which is about 90.9% 20Ne. The gas pressure was maintained at about 28 cm. of Hg and was monitored throughout the runs with a mercury manometer. The 21‘Mg target was a self supporting foil of 2“M magnesium metal enriched to 99.96% g. This foil was obtained from Union Carbide at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. It was reported to be 566 ug/cm2 thick, and this thickness was used in normalizing the cross-sections obtained. For this purpose the thickness was assumed to be accurate to 15%. The 288i target was a self supporting foil of 28 natural silicon metal (92.21% Si). This foil was also obtained from Union Carbide. Its thickness was deter— nuned by measuring the energy loss of alpha particles from a natural source when they passed through the foil. 'The results were compared with range tables(Wi66) to _I a E. I. DuPont de Nemours, Wilmington, Del. “5 determine the thickness. The thickness was found to be 687 us/cm2 and an accuracy of 25% was assumed for normali- zation purposes. The 328 target was a 5" diameter gas cell with 1/2 mil Kapton windows. The gas was natural H28 (~95.0% 32S) at a pressure of abOut 21 cm. of Hg. The pressure was monitored throughout the runs with a mercury manometer. I Two different 36Ar targets were used. Both were 3" gas cells filled with argon gas enriched to >99% 36Ar. The first cell was a sealed cell, with 1/2 mil Havar windows and a pressure of “5.1:1.0 cm. of Hg, built by R. L. Kozub gate the AE and Z signals.

TOOTSIE displays, on a cathode ray screen, AE versus 2. Due to the difference in energy loss (AE signal) of particles of different charge and mass for the same energy (2 signal), the different particles fall into bands on the two dimensional plot. Figure “ shows such a two dimensional plot. This particular spectrum was not taken during the present experiments. The code then allows gate lines to be introduced in the form of poly- nomial fits to designated points. These gate lines are then used to route the 2 signal to any of four 20“8 channel spectrum. I I In the case of the 328 experiment, two detector telescopes, placed 10° apart on the scattering chamber arm, were used. The particle identification system using the on line computer was used. After the coinci- dence and linear gates the AB and Z signals from the two telescopes were mixed and sent to the ADC, along with a Trouting signal taken from the coincidence modules. “.8 Triton Energy Spectra and Energy Resolution In the earlier experiments (Ar, Mg, Si), the falectronic limitation on the resolution was measured by iantroducing a pulser signal, through a l or 2 pf. capaci- t”Dr, into the preamps. It was found to be equivalent to 5“ Figure “ ——Two dimensional TOOTSIE display. 55 “5 to 65 keV full width at half maximum (FWHM). In the later experiments when the total energy signal (2) was taken from the summing circuit at the detector telesc0pe, electronic contributions were reduced to 30 to “0 keV FWHM. The over all experimental resolution varied with the particular target, counters, and electronic con- 20 d 32S cases the resolution was about 90 keV FWHM. The 21‘Mg experiment had about 120 keV. The 2881 case was about l“0 keV. The 36Ar figuration. For the Ne an gas cell with the thick Havar windows gave 155 keV, while the cell with Kapton windows gave 100 keV. The uoCa experiment had about 60 keV overall resolution.

CHAPTER 5 DATA REDUCTION The one dimensional triton spectra stored in the ND-l60 were dumped directly into the Sigma-7 and punched on cards in the form of binary coded compressed data ‘decks. The data acquisition task TOOTSIE punched out such data decks directly. The spectra were also plotted by the Sigma-7 in the form of semi-log histogram plots. Listings of the data were also obtained. From the plots and listings, the first and last channels of each peak along with the associated backgrounds were picked out by visual inspection. This information was put on punched cards and a simple Fortran computer code used these along with the data decks to calculate areas of peaks, statis- tical errors and centroids. The statistical error was taken to be simply [(N+B)+B]l/2/N where N is the net counts in the peak after the substaction of B background counts. The centroid was calculated using only the tOp twcwthirds of the peak for peaks over 25 counts high to eliminate contributions from tails due to straggling in 1file target and other effects. :In the case of smaller Peaks, statistics did not seem to warrant this approach 59 60 and the total peak was used to calculate the centroid. The results were output on punched cards. These cards, along with data on the proton energy, scattering angles, and particle masses went into a second simply Fortran computer code which used peaks designated as being known to set up an energy calibra- tion curve. The calibration peaks were usually taken to be tritons from the (p,t) ground state transitions to 100, 12N, and 1”o as well as the first excited state of 10c at 3.3527 MeV2+ 1.2us0 2+ (Sh68)Jfl(Gah7)t(0167)E(Be66) : 008 1.0006 (Ce66)t 3.323 (4*) 3.353 (u+) (sn68)Jn(cao7)fi(neco) (Ce66)t i 021 1.0N5 u.u17 (2*) u.38 (2+) (Sh65)EJfl(Ga67)t i 027 5 057 (2*) 2 cu (2+,3') (Sh63) i 031 5.313 5 cu (2+,3‘,u+) (onto) :.03> Ha ra+,;‘ u+) (sntt) 5.738 r 70 <(u+>\ (SL6;) : 035 (.001 0+ t.037 6.281 i.033 6.6U5 1.0Au 6.836 :.ouu 7.252 1.0uu 7.961 :.OU9 * _ See text for explanation of notation.

The value of K was chosen to give the best average fit to the two maxima of the data, and the value (of K is given in the figure. Another method of calculating (p,t) angular dis- tributions using distorted waves is to treat the reaction as a transfer of a rigid cluster; In this method the two neutrons are treated as if they were an elementary particle of spin zero and mass 2 with no internal struc- ture present in the target nucleus as such. With this picture, the calculation can be carried out exactly the same way as single nucleon transfer such as (p,d). In distorted wave calculations of (p,d), the form factor is usually taken to be the bound state wave function of the neutron in a Woods-Saxon well. Such a cluster transfer calculation was carried out using the wave function of a mass 2 particle with quantum numbers L=O, S=O and J=O. The principle quantum number, which is somewhat arbi- trary for such a calculation, waschosen to be 3. This choice is based on the fact that in the expression for the form factor (equation 3.3.2), in the more detailed model of Chapter 3, the dominant term is the one corresponding to N=3. Calculations were also made with. N=1 and 2 and little difference in shape was observed. The cluster was assumed to be bound in a well of the form given in equation (7.2.9) 92 (r - 1.25 Al/3 f)/O.65 f X (7.2.9) In this expression A was taken to be the mass of the residual nucleus, and V0 was chosen to reproduce the experimental two neutron separation energy. The calcula- tions show that the general shape of the angular distri- butions are reproduced but not nearly as well as with the more detailed calculations. In order to compare in a systematic way, the data with these calculations, it can be noted that over the range that the distributions were observed, there are two peaks in the cross-section. The first one at about 25° will be denoted by 61 and 01 where 61 is the center of mass angle at which the peak occurs and 01 is the cross-section at this peak. The second peak at about 55° can be denoted by 82 and 02. Figures 15, 16 and 17 show the value of 61, 62, and 01/02 respectively as a function of target mass number (A) for the data and the two methods of distorted wave calculations. Of interest is the fact that the general trend of 01/02 is repro- duced fairly well by the two nucleon transfer theory, but that the cluster model does not reproduce it as well. The same single set of optical model parameters was used throughout. .mcofluflmsmmu modem oczomw mdp.mom xmma pmhflm m” coaufimomll.mfl mmswflm Hwomfl. “.0 < 0¢ mm mm mm em 00 _ _ _ _ a _ Tum 1 *1 2. 1 I \ T I/prll/ \\\ leN / \ 1 1 mm _m T l r mobs. 2%... $530 1... 1500 «.0504... 1 .200... magma 03.5 1.. 1 PZNZEMn—xm fl _. _ _ _ _ _ com .mcoflpflmcmmu modem ossomw.mflp sou ammo Ucoemw mo coauflmomll.ma wssmfim Pumas. mo < 01. mm mm mm em 00 _ d a _ _ _ . 1 we 1 we .1 mm r em 1 mm 1 mobs. .25... $530 .... 5 mm mobs. 5E0“. , 325mg 035 .1 H 1 Suzamaxm H 00 _ _ _ a . _ L 95 .mcoapamcmhp mpdpm Unschw on» now mzoauommlmmoao mea mo oapmmll.5a mhdwfim .

In the case of the L=2 transi- tion, the first peak (at 01) is not usually well defined by the data. Figures 22 and 23 show 01/02 and 02 versus target mass number for the data and these calculations. The Optical model parameters and the bound state well geometries were the same as for the L=0 ground state calculations. The depth of the bound state well was chosen so that the individual neutrons would be bound by an energy 6 defined in equation (7.5.1). 5 = 1/2(|B.E.(2n)l + EX) (7.5.1) In this expression B.E.(2n) is the separation energy of the last two neutrons, and Ex is the excitation energy of the excited state. 18Ne 7.6 Transitions to States in Two nucleon transfer distorted wave calculations were made for those transitions where the experimental angular distributions were clear enough to indicate L- transfer and for transitions to states where J7T assign- ments have been made by other workers. The results are shown in Figure 2A along with the configuration of the two picked up neutrons assumed for purposes of calculation. This assumed configuration has little meaning since it has been shown that shapes have only a small dependence 3.1.1.. .. . 1. 1,- 1.. 0... 106 I .5904? no 4 0.0 mm mm _ 00 .00 ON . _ a. 0 . . 2950150130 m><>> 8.50.55 101 H H 5202.00.06 H . . .mcofipfimcmpp mud pmnfim on» now mQOHpommlmmOQo xmmm mo oapmm11.mm mhswflm N.c\..e 107 .COfipHmcmhp m "A 00.00% mew .009 0:009 @200 mm .Ho coapflmom11.mm @03me 0.» mm Poms. mo 4 H 00 00 , .00 00 0 .

The experimental shape of the distribution to the state at 3.390 MeV is not well reproduced by the L=H calculation which is shown with it in Figure 2A. The L=A assignment is best verified by comparison with the experimental distribution to the 3.323 MeV state in 22Mg which is most probably a 9+ by comparison with the level structure of its mirror nucleus 22Ne (see Figure 9). This is the basis for the tentative 1+ assignment to this level at 3.390 MeV in 18Ne. The level at 3.619 MeV has been previously identi- fied as a 2+ (see Table 1). The present data is very well fit by the L=O shape. Figure 2A shows both an L=0 and an L=2 calculation for comparison. The present experiment therefore calls for an O+ assignment to the 18Ne. state at 3.61A MeV in The general features of the angular distribution to the level at 9.576 MeV are well reproduced by an L=l calculation as shown in Figure 29. This state is therefore assigned a J1T value of 1'. 7.7 Transitions to States in 22Mg The state at 3.323 MeV in 22Mg is tentatively assigned J"=u+ although the shape is not well reproduced 0. .44.!)15,‘ If!)il..lbp(1liitl , 1. b . . 1w d b 110 by the L=U calculation shown in Figure 25. This assign- ment is primarily based on a comparison with the known level structure of 22Ne, the mirror nucleus to 22Mg (see Figure 9). The levels at “.917 MeV and 5.507 MeV exhibit the features of an L=2 transition. Comparison with the transition to the known 2+ at 1.250 MeV verifies this (see Figure 21). These two states are therefore tenta- tively assigned J"=2+. The state at 5.738 MeV has previously been very tentatively assumed to be a 0+ (see Table 2). An L=0 calculation is shown with the data in Figure 25, but there is very little similarity at all. No attempt has been made to make a further assignment to this state. The level at 6.061 MeV is assigned a J1T value of + 0 . The angular distribution to this state is quite well represented by the L=0 calculation shown in Figure 25. 7.8 Transitions to States in 2681 The angular distributions to the state at 2.790 MeV in 26Si is not complete enough to make a definite J"r assignment. It does exhibit some of the features of an L=2 distribution (see Figure 26) and so a tentative 2+ assignment is made. This is in agreement with the pre- vious assignment (see Table 3). lll .wz :0 000000 mm 300.500 00. 03 ON. 00. Om 8 O¢ ON 0 . _ H 0 _ _ _ 0 $3 1 odwusav 00. >02 .80 saw - 0! AV TO- / D. _ .

Its angular distribution is not inconsistent with the previous tentative J=O assignment and the distorted wave method was also studied. It was found that the shapes of the experimental angular dis- tributions were fairly well reproduced, and this was used as mentioned above to make angular momentum transfer and spin-parity assignments. The magnitudes of the predicted cross-sections were found to be influenced very greatly by the optical model parameters, the bound state parameters, and, most importantly, the presence of small admixtures in the shell model wave functions of the 119 120 initial and final nuclear states. It is concluded that these strong dependences make the prediction of magni- tudes of cross-section for the (p,t) reaction extremely difficult. The detailed calculation of parentage fac- tors from very accurate shell model wave functions would be needed along with well determined distorted wave and bound state parameters. Such detailed calculations and studies would involve such an extensive project that the present understanding of the two nucleon transfer process might not warrant it. ‘fifilI ‘1 APPENDICES 121 APPENDIX A 20Ne(p,t)18Ne EXPERIMENTAL DATA 3 Abs.
