INVESTIGATION OF NUCLEAR REACTIONS INDUCED BY HEAVY ION BOMBARDMENT AND OF EXCITED LEVELS IN HEAVY NUCLEI

Abstract

The following work is reported: (1) Angular correlations in (alpha,p)- and (alpha,alpha')reactions at 14 MeV. (2) Heavy ion induced reactions and properties of ligh as atine i otopes formed in those reactions. (3) Study of energy levels, transition probabilities, etc. in several isotopes mostly in the lead region, excited in radioactive decay. (4) Stopping of heavy ions in various materials. (5) New instruments and methods: (a) automatic gain controlled amplifier, (b) use of CRT oscilloscopes in time- and pulse-height measurements, (c) time to pulse-height converter, (d) surface barrier semiconductor detectors.
