Description
The study of nuclear reactions remains an important tool for investigating the internal structure of atomic nuclei. In particular, cluster models, in which the nucleus is represented as a system of simpler subsystems, allow a deeper understanding of the structure of light nuclei. In this work, an experimental study of the reaction ¹¹B(¹⁰B,¹⁰B)¹¹B at a beam energy of 41.3 MeV was carried out with the aim of studying the cluster nature of the ¹¹B nucleus, considered as a ¹⁰B+n system.
The experiment was performed on the U-200P cyclotron at the Heavy Ion Laboratory of the University of Warsaw. The detection system included silicon detectors and ionization chambers as part of the ICARE setup, which made it possible to carry out precise measurements of angular distributions and energy spectra of the scattered nuclei.
As a result, differential cross sections of elastic and inelastic scattering were measured. Features were found in the angular distributions, indicating the manifestation of cluster effects and a possible contribution of the neutron transfer mechanism. To describe the observed processes, it is further planned to use the methods of distorted waves (DWBA) and coupled channels (CCBA).
