Abstract
New supersonic gas jet target for low energy nuclear reaction studies
Highlights
This paper describes the design, construction and commissioning of a new supersonic gas jet target beam line
New research opportunities become available with this facility through the study of the direct beam-gas interaction: nuclear physics and astrophysics, atomic physics, interaction of radiation with matter and other interdisciplinary applications
The upgrading program of our facility was completed in 2014 and it is composed of five beam lines, instead of the single previous one dedicated to ion beam analysis (IBA) work
Summary
This paper describes the design, construction and commissioning of a new supersonic gas jet target beam line It is part of the upgrading program for our 5.5 MV CN-Van de Graaff accelerator facility [1] at Instituto de Física Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (IFUNAM). Taking advantage of the availability of low energy deuteron beams, we decided to use it in combination with an air jet target to study the 14Nðd; αÞ12C reaction as a first case of study using SUGAR This reaction has been recently studied [25,26] for α0 and α1 at backward angles to provide additional information for IBA applications.
