Spectroscopy of Beryllium isotopes using TexAT-TPC

ORAL

Abstract

The detailed spectroscopic data that can be extracted from single nucleon transfer reactions provide a useful experimental probe of nuclear structure. This work aims to complement existing data for the 12Be system by measuring the spectroscopic factors to low-lying states in 12Be with the 13B(d,3He)12Be reaction in inverse kinematics. Using the Momentum Achromat Recoil Spectrometer (MARS) at Texas A&M University Cyclotron Institute (TAMU-CI), a 13B beam was delivered to the TEXas Active Target (TexAT) Time Projection Chamber (TPC). By reconstructing reaction vertices and tracks in TexAT, differential cross sections and thus spectroscopic data can be extracted. Ongoing analysis and preliminary results will be discussed.
