Fermi momenta and separation energies obtained from the quasi-elastic scattering of electrons from48Ca and40Ca

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik A Atoms and Nuclei

Abstract

Measurements of average separation energies and of Fermi momenta for40Ca and48Ca are reported. Evidence for the possible existence of “bump” structure in the quasi-elastic scattering of electrons from48Ca is also presented.

The authors thank Prof. R. Hofstadter who suggested the experiment, and Prof. E. Moniz for his valuable advice on the interpretation of the Fermi gas model. We also thank the staff of the Mark III accelerator for their assistance. The isotopically enriched calcium targets were prepared by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory's accelerator target fabrication group under Mr. E. H. Kobisk. We wish to thank Dr. G.L. Rogosa of ERDA for his help in obtaining the targets. Mr. B.L. Parker assisted in analysis work at LSU.
