Description
We have measured the γ-ray angular distribution of the 12C(α,γ)16O reaction at TRIAC (Tokai Radioactive Ion Accelerator Complex) to accurately determine the E1 and E2 cross sections. In this experiment, we used high efficiency anti-Compton NaI(T1) spectrometers to detect a γ-ray from the reaction with large S/N ratio, intense pulsed α-beams to discriminate true event from background events due to neutrons from 13C(α,n)16O reaction with a time-of-flight (TOF) method. We succeeded in removing a background events due to neutrons and clearly detected γ-ray from the 12C(αγ)16O reaction with high statistics.
