Direct reactions of 10Be, 10B, and 15N on active target deuterium gas using SOLARIS AT-TPC*

ORAL

Abstract

Direct reactions are powerful probes to study nuclear structure. With a primary goal to establish the importance and unique ability to measure transfer reactions on radioactive beams with low intensities, taking advantage of the high luminosity of the AT-TPC, a radioactive 10Be cocktail beam along with stable 10B and 15N contaminants was delivered by the ReA6 accelerator at NSCL to a 1 m thick pure deuterium gas target at 600 Torr, inside the AT-TPC placed in the SOLARIS solenoid magnet. Multiple reaction channels (d, p), (d, d), (d, t), and (d, α) were detected simultaneously across a wide energy range inside the detector. The preliminary results of the analysis will be presented with an emphasis on the (d, d), and (d, d') channels. Future opportunities and prospects of performing transfer reactions using SOLARIS in the AT-TPC mode with low-intensity exotic FRIB beams will also be discussed.
