Cross sections for nuclear reactions induced by high energy alpha particles and the influence of interstellar helium in cosmic ray propagation

Description

Cross sections have been measured for a number of nuclides produced in the bombardement of C, O, Mg, Si, Fe and Ni targets by 2.8 and 4.6GeV alpha particles. The results (the first for alphas of more than 230 MeV/nucleon) are interpreted in terms of the effect of about 10% interstellar He abundance on the production of secondary nuclei during propagation

Abstract (French)

Des sections efficaces ont ete mesurees pour un nombre d'isotopes produits au cours de bombardements de cibles C, O, Mg, Si, Fe et Ni par des particules alpha. Les resultats (les premiers pour les alphas de plus de 230 MeV/nucleon) sont interpretes en termes de l'abondance de He interstellaire d'environ 10% dans le cadre de la production de noyaux secondaires durant la propagation
