Pionic Fusion Study of the halo analogue state6Li

  • Published:
Acta Physica Hungarica New Series Heavy Ion Physics

Abstract

The isobaric analogue state of the ground state of the halo nucleus6He,6Li* has been studied in a pionic fusion experiment at the CELSIUS storage ring facility in Uppsala, Sweden. This was the first of two proposed experiments with the aim to study the high momentum part of the wave functions of the halo nuclei6He and6Li (0+, T=1). The Li nuclei were produced in inverse kinematics reactions with alpha particles incident on a deuterium cluster jet target. The6Li ions were detected in a zero-degree spectrometer situated in the fourth quadrant of the CELSIUS ring. The measurement was done for three different beam energies corresponding to 5.4, 2.2 and 1.5 MeV above threshold in the c.m. The cross-sections slowly increase with beam energy from 95 nb at the lowest energy to about 250 nb at 5.4 MeV above threshold.
