Measurement of Neutron knockout cross-section of $^{24}$O to the ground-state of $^{23}$O
ORAL
Abstract
This research provides an understanding of the structure of the ground state wave-function of $^{24}$O through measuring the neutron knockout cross section of $^{24}$O to the $\frac{1}{2}$$^{+}$ ground state of $^{23}$O. The experiment was conducted at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory using the S800 spectrograph and 470 mg/cm$^2$ Be reaction target with 92.3 MeV/u $^{24}$O beam energy. The cross section values to the different final states of $^{23}$O along with the related spectroscopic factors will convey to us information regarding how doubly magic $^{24}$O is. Specific details of this investigation, analysis, interpretation of resulting cross sections and parallel and perpendicular momentum of the residual will be discussed.
