11 Nov 2010 | | Abstract: | $gamma$-ray production cross sections have been measured in proton
irradiations of N, Ne and Si and $alpha$-particle irradiations of N and Ne. In
the same experiment we extracted also line shapes for strong $gamma$-ray lines
of $^{16}$O produced in proton and $alpha$-particle irradiations of O. For the
measurements gas targets were used for N, O and Ne and a thick foil was used
for Si. All targets were of natural isotopic composition. Beams in the energy
range up to 26 MeV for protons and 39 MeV for $alpha$-particles have been
delivered by the IPN-Orsay tandem accelerator. The $gamma$ rays have been
detected with four HP-Ge detectors in the angular range 30$^{circ}$ to
135$^{circ}$. We extracted 36 cross section excitation functions for proton
reactions and 14 for $alpha$-particle reactions. For the majority of the
excitation functions no other data exist to our knowledge. Where comparison
with existing data was possible usually a very good agreement was found. It is
shown that these data are very interesting for constraining nuclear reaction
models. In particular the agreement of cross section calculations in the
nuclear reaction code TALYS with the measured data could be improved by
adjusting the coupling schemes of collective levels in the target nuclei
$^{14}$N, $^{20,22}$Ne and $^{28}$Si. The importance of these results for the
modeling of nuclear $gamma$-ray line emission in astrophysical sites is
discussed. | | Source: | arXiv, 1011.2561 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
