Electroexcitation Of Giant Resonances In Ni 60 Between 5 Mev And 30 Mev Excitation Energy

Giant multipole resonances and bound states above 6 MeV in Ni 60 were studied with inelastic scattering of electrons at 102 MeV incident energy and scattering angles of 60, 75, 90, and 105 degrees. In the energy interval from 5 MeV to 40 MeV excitation energy, ten states and resonances were observed of which only those below 7 MeV and those at 16.5 and 18.5 had been previously reported. Reduced transition probabilities were calculated, and multipolarity assignments were made. The ten transitions were observed at excitation energies of 6.1 (E3,E2), 7.0 (E3,M2), 7.6 (E2,E3,M2), 8.4 (E2,E0), 9.9 (E1), 11.8 (E2,E0), 12.9 (E3,M2), 15.0 (E4), 16.5 (E2,E0), and 18.5 (E1) MeV. The E4 resonance at 15.0 MeV was previously unreported. The E2 resonance at 16.5 MeV reported in (alpha, alpha primed) work and the E1 resonance at 18.5 MeV from (Gamma, n) were confirmed. (Author).

Giant resonances in 89Y were studied with inelastic scattering of 92.5 MeV incident electrons at scattering angles of 75, 90, 105 and 120 degrees. In the excitation energy range of 6.1 to 38 MeV, nine transitions were observed. The previously reported E1 has been verified, but the broad E2 has been separated into two distinct resonances. Reduced transition probabilities and multipolarity assignments have been made. Resonances occurred at excitation energies of 6.69(E2), 8.09(E2), 10.01 (E2), 11.21 (E2), 12.46 (E3), 13.63 (M2 or E3), 14.86 (E2), 16.60 (E1), 27.85 (E2).

Giant resonances are collective excitations of the atomic nucleus, a typical quantum many-body system. The study of these fundamental modes has in many respects contributed to our understanding of the bulk behavior of the nucleus and of the dynamics of non-equilibrium excitations. Although the phenomenon of giant resonances has been known for more than 50 years, a large amount of information has been obtained in the last 10 years. This book gives an up-to-date, comprehensive account of our present knowledge of giant resonances. It presents the experimental facts and the techniques used to obtain that information, describes how these facts fit into theoretical concepts and how this allows to determine various nuclear properties which are otherwise difficult to obtain. Included as an introduction is an overview of the main facts, a short history of how the field has developed in the course of time, and a discussion of future perspectives.

Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and dis seminated by the Center for lnformation and Numerica/ Data Analysis and Synthesis (C/NDAS) * at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the ac tivity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficia! to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After fi ve years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of ali concerned if the printing and distribution of the volume were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and App/ied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. Ali back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 21 (thesis year 1976) a total of 10,586 theses titles from 25 Canadian and 219 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for theses titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work.

This is the most recent and complete review on giant resonances in nuclei. It includes electric as well as magnetic collective states and a detailed discussion on the excitation mechanisms and the decay properties is given.
