Abstract

Double-differential cross sections of the 12C(n, p) reaction have been measured at 98 MeV in the angular range 0°–33° for excitation energies up to 35 MeV. The spectra have been analysed in terms of multipole components, using peak fitting and decomposition techniques. The data have been compared with cross sections obtained in the distorted-wave Born approximation, using matrix elements from shell-model calculations. The unit cross section and the related strength of the spin-isospin part of the nucleon-nucleon interaction were determined from the extracted Gamow-Teller strength. Cross sections and fractions of strength exhausted by dipole and higher-multipole transitions were extracted and compared with data available in the literature.
