Emission of fast helium nuclei and tritons from high-energy nuclear disintegrations

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento (1955-1965)

Summary

On the basis of the result that from high-energy nuclear disintegration fast helium nuclei and tritons with energies greater than 50 MeV are emitted with equal frequencies, various known mechanisms for the emission of these particles are examined. It is suggested that such emission can also take place through the absorption of mesons in4Heclusters present in the outer region of the nucleus.

Riassunto

Sulla base del risultato secondo cui nuclei di elio veloci e tritoni con energia maggiore di 50 MeV nelle disintegrazioni nucleari di alta energia vengono emessi con frequenze uguali, si esaminano diversi noti meccanismi per l’emissione di queste particelle. Si suggerisce un meccanismo per cui tale emissione può aver luogo anche per assorbimento di mesoni negli ammassi di4He presenti nella regione esterna del nucleo.
