Abstract

The angular distribution of elastically scattered 63 MeV deuterons has been measured for carbon, aluminium and hydrogen, using sonic spark chambers. Optical-model fits have been made to the results for carbon and aluminium. The cross section for deuteron stripping on carbon has been measured to be 65 ± 5 mb.

Validation of elastic cross section models for space radiation applications

There is an abundance of elastic [56–70], reaction [56,71–129], and total cross section [56,58,69,70,130–146] data; therefore, these data have been used for validation of the model. An accurate representation of the available elastic differential cross section data [142,147–283] is also presented; however, there is a paucity of nucleus-nucleus differential cross section data for energies greater than a few hundred MeV/n. This manuscript proceeds as follows.
The space radiation field is composed of energetic particles that pose both acute and long-term risks for astronauts in low earth orbit and beyond. In order to estimate radiation risk to crew members, the fluence of particles and biological response to the radiation must be known at tissue sites. Given that the spectral fluence at the boundary of the shielding material is characterized, radiation transport algorithms may be used to find the fluence of particles inside the shield and body, and the radio-biological response is estimated from experiments and models. The fidelity of the radiation spectrum inside the shield and body depends on radiation transport algorithms and the accuracy of the nuclear cross sections. In a recent study, self-consistent nuclear models based on multiple scattering theory that include the option to study relativistic kinematics were developed for the prediction of nuclear cross sections for space radiation applications. The aim of the current work is to use uncertainty quantification to ascertain the validity of the models as compared to a nuclear reaction database and to identify components of the models that can be improved in future efforts.
Cross section calculations of deuteron-induced reactions using the extended CCONE code
2014, Nuclear Data Sheets
We have extended the CCONE code to make it possible to calculate cross sections for deuteron-induced reactions. Elastic breakup and stripping reactions to continuum are calculated using another codes based on the Continuum-Discretized Coupled-Channels theory (CDCC) and the Glauber model, respectively, and the calculated results are inputted to the CCONE code as direct reaction components. Statistical decay from compound nuclei formed by nucleon stripping and deuteron absorption is calculated with the exciton and Hauser-Feshbach models implemented in the original CCONE code. The extended CCONE code is applied to analyses of deuteron-induced reactions on ²⁷Al and ⁵⁸Ni. CDCC calculations for deuteron elastic scattering show good agreement with the experimental data at incident energies of several tens of MeV. The calculated double-differential (d,xp) cross sections reproduce the measured ones at forward angles for incident energies of 56 and 100 MeV fairly well.
Diffusion élastique et inélastique de deutons de 80 MeV
1971, Nuclear Physics, Section A
Deuteron elastic scattering on ¹²C, ²⁴Mg, ²⁷A1, ⁵⁸Ni, ⁶⁸Zn, ⁸⁹Y, ¹²⁰Sn and ²⁰⁸Pb has been studied in order to obtain optical-potential parameters. The inclusion of a vector spin-orbit potential is necessary for nuclei with $A ≧ 89$ . Experimental angular distributions can also be well fitted without such a potential for light nuclei. The first 2⁺ levels of ¹²C, ⁵⁶Ni, ⁶⁸Zn and ¹²⁰Sn and the first 3⁻ level of ¹²C are observed and the angular distribution of scattered deuterons analysed by DWBA. Experimental deformation parameters have been deduced. The ¹²C(d, p)¹³C reaction has been studied. Experimental and calculated angular distributions to the first levels are compared.
