1 Collective model Large quadrupole moments nucleus as a collective body (Liquid drop model). Interactions between outer nucleons and closed shells cause permanent deformation. Single-particle state calculated in a non-spherical potential ti complicated. Spacing between energy levels depends on size of distortion. ti Doubly magic 1 st excited state away from GS. Near closure single-particle l states. t Further away from closure collective motion of the core excited states. t 1
2 Collective model A net nuclear potential due to filled core shells exists. Collective model combines both liquid drop model and shell model. Two major types of collective motion: Rotations: t ti Rotation ti of a deformed d shape. Vibrations: Surface oscillations.
3 Collective model Rotational motion observed for non-spherical nuclei. Deformed nuclei are mainly 150 < A < 190 and A > 0.

15 Nuclear Reactions Recoil nucleus Y could be unstable β or γ emission. One should think about: Reaction dynamics and conservation laws i.e. conditions necessary for the reaction to be energetically possible. Reaction mechanism and theories which explain the reaction.

39 Compound Nucleus Reactions Consider p + 63 Cu at E CM p = 0 MeV. Calculate E CM +[m( p 63 Cu) + m(p) m( 64 Zn)]c. Divide by 64 available energy per nucleon << 8 MeV. Multiple collisions long time statistical distribution of energy small chance for a nucleon to get enough energy Evaporation. Higher incident id energy more particles evaporate. See also Fig in Krane. 39
40 Direct Reactions Random collisions nearly isotropic angular distribution. Direct reaction component strong angular dependence. See also Fig in Krane. 40
41 Direct Reactions Peripheral collision with surface nucleon. 1 MeV incident nucleon D?? more likely to interact with the nucleus CN reaction. 0 MeV incident nucleon D?? peripheral collision Direct reaction. CN and Direct (D) processes can happen at the same incident particle energy. Distinguished by: D (10 - s) CN ( s). [Consider a 0 MeV deuteron on A=50 target nucleus]. Angular distribution. 41
42 Direct Reactions (d,n) stripping (transfer) reactions can go through both processes. (d,p) stripping (transfer) reactions prefer D rather than CN; protons do not easily evaporate (Coulomb). [(p,d) is a pickup reaction]. What about (α,n) transfer reactions? HW 36 Show that for a (d,p) reaction taking place on the surface of a 90 Zr nucleus, and with 5 MeV deuterons, the angular momentum transfer can be approximated by l = 8sin(θ/), where θ is the angle the outgoing proton makes with the incident id deuteron direction.
