Abstract

The heavy ion reaction 22 Ne+208 Pb at 128 MeV of bombarding energy has been studied using the PRISMA-CLARA experimental setup at Legnaro National Laboratories. Elastic, inelastic and one nucleon transfer cross sections have been measured. The experimental results are presented in parallel with the analysis on existing data for the unstable 24 Ne nucleus, from the reaction 24 Ne+208 Pb at 182 MeV (measured at SPIRAL with the VAMOS-EXOGAM setup). The β 2 C charge deformation parameter for both 22 Ne and 24 Ne has been determined by a DWBA analysis of the experimental angular dis- tributions, showing a strong reduction for 24 Ne.

Highlights

  • Heavy ions play an important role in the study of nuclear structure and nuclear reaction mechanisms

  • The analysis focuses on the study of particle - γ coincidences aiming at the investigation of reaction mechanisms as well as nuclear structure properties of neutron rich Ne isotopes and neighbouring nuclei

  • Each ion detected in the magnetic spectrometer PRISMA, described in Ref. [9], was measured in coincidence with γ-rays detected in the γ-array CLARA
