Abstract

Deuteron breakup reactions are basic laboratories for testing nuclear force models. Recent improvements in the data analysis allow for direct identification of neutrons in the BINA detection setup. This opens up the opportunity to study new aspects of few-nucleon system dynamics like charge dependence of nuclear force or Coulomb interaction. In this paper we determine regions along the kinematical curves where differential cross section of deuteron-proton breakup reactions can be measured by the proton-neutron and proton-proton coincidences simultaneously. %In this paper we determine regions along the kinematical curves where differential cross section of $^1$H$(d,pp)n$ and $^1$H$(d,pn)p$ breakup reactions overlap. This is particularly useful for validation of the neutron detection technique.

Highlights

Investigations of few-nucleon systems gives suitable testing ground for modern nuclear interaction models
The differential cross sections of the deuteron breakup reaction are very sensitive to various aspects of the system dynamics, to the effects of the three nucleon force (3NF), and to the long-range Coulomb interaction and to its interplay with strong forces
A new generation experiments devoted to studies of few-nucleon systems were carried out at KVI in Groningen with the use of the BINA detector and with the deuteron beam provided by the AGOR cyclotron [8]

Summary

Introduction

Investigations of few-nucleon systems gives suitable testing ground for modern nuclear interaction models. A new generation experiments devoted to studies of few-nucleon systems were carried out at KVI in Groningen (the Netherlands) with the use of the BINA detector and with the deuteron beam provided by the AGOR cyclotron [8]. The experiment was a continuation of previous very successful studies [11,12]. In this analysis we are focused on two kinds of the deuteron-proton breakup reactions, one with the detection of two protons and the other with proton and neutron detected in the BINA
