Nuclear fragmentation measurements are necessary when using heavy-ion beams in hadrontherapy to predict the effects of ion nuclear interactions within human body. Moreover, they also fundamental validate and improve Monte Carlo codes for their use planning tumor treatments. Nowadays, a very limited set carbon cross sections being measured, particular, our knowledge, no double-differential at intermediate energies available literature. In this work, we have measured angular distributions...
Recently, a rainbow pattern in the elastic scattering of 16O + 27Al at Elab. = 100 MeV was reported. In present paper, we show that predicted change slope cross section, as function angle, is mostly due to far-side component scattering, which affected by inelastic couplings. The experimental data consistent with calculations up inflection point, where effect couplings significant. New data, very good agreement theoretical expectations around Coulomb are also presented.
Elastic-scattering measurements have been performed for the 6Li+p system in inverse kinematics at energies of 16, 20, 25, and 29 MeV. The heavy ejectile was detected by large acceptance MAGNEX spectrometer Laboratori Nazionali del Sud Catania, Italy. results are considered a Jeukenne-Lejeune-Mahaux continuum discretized coupled-channel calculation framework.Received 27 March 2015DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevC.91.057601©2015 American Physical Society
A detailed knowledge of the light ions interaction processes with matter is great interest in basic and applied physics. As an example, particle therapy space radioprotection require highly accurate fragmentation cross-section measurements to develop shielding materials estimate acute late health risks for manned missions treatment planning therapy. The Fragmentation Ions Relevant Space Therapy experiment at Helmholtz Center Heavy Ion research (GSI) was designed built by international...

Nuclear fragmentation processes are relevant in different fields of basic research and applied physics particular interest for tumor therapy space radiation protection applications. The FIRST (Fragmentation Ions Relevant Space Therapy) experiment at SIS accelerator GSI laboratory Darmstadt, has been designed the measurement ions cross sections energies between 100 1000 MeV/nucleon. is performed by an international collaboration made institutions from Germany, France, Italy Spain....
For certain combinations of protons and neutrons, there is a theoretical expectation that the shape nuclei can assume octupole deformation, which would give rise to reflection asymmetry or "pear shape" in intrinsic frame, either dynamically (octupole vibrations) statically (permanent deformation).In this paper, I will briefly review historic evidence for nuclei, describe how recent experiments carried out at REX-ISOLDE are constraining nuclear theory they contribute tests extensions Standard...
An experimental study concerning Double Gamow-Teller (DGT) modes in (18O,18Ne) Charge-Exchange reactions has been very recently performed at INFN-LNS laboratory Catania. The experiment was using a 40Ca solid target and 18O Cyclotron beam 270 MeV incident energy. Charged ejectiles produced the reaction were momentum analyzed identified by MAGNEX spectrometer forward angles. Preliminary results are presented present paper.
A characterization of wave-to-plasma interaction in a quasi-flat magnetostatic field at 3.75 GHz has been carried out by using small-wire movable RF antenna, connected to spectrum analyzer. The coupling between electromagnetic and electrostatic waves leads characteristic spectral emission low frequency range around the pumping wave frequency. most relevant results consist broadening above critical power thresholds generation sidebands frequency, with corresponding components domain....

The 12C(18O, 16O)14C reaction at 84 MeV has been studied INFN-LNS laboratory using the MAGNEX magnetic spectrometer. High resolution energy spectra and cross-section angular distributions have measured. DWBA calculations of both direct sequential transfer to 14C ground state show important role interference between two processes describe experimental data.
The 12C(18O,16O)14C reaction has been studied at 84 MeV incident energy. ejectiles have momentum analysed forward angles by the MAGNEX magnetic spectrometer. energy spectra were obtained up to about 20 excitation Calculations based on removal of two uncorrelated neutrons from projectile describe a significant part continuum observed in spectra.

Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES) represents a very reliable technique to carry out non-invasive measurements of plasma density and temperature in the range tens eV. With respect other diagnostics, it also can characterize different populations neutrals ionized particles constituting plasma. At INFN-LNS, OES techniques have been developed applied generated by Flexible Plasma Trap, an ion source used as "testbench" proton built for European Spallation Source. This work presents...
