Description

X rays from the cascade of antiprotonic atoms have been studied by the PS209 Collaboration at LEAR of CERN. In this publication the strong interaction widths and shifts for calcium isotopes are presented. The isotopes 40Ca,42Ca,43Ca,44Ca, and 48Ca have been investigated. The measured widths are compared with results from Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov calculations. As a CaCO3 target had been used for the measurement also the lowest antiprotonic transition of 16O could be observed
