Mechanisms for Li and Be production in the 14N + 12C reaction
- 1. Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, Tennessee 37830
Description
Measurements of the yields of /sup 6,7/Li and /sup 7,9/Be have been made for the 14N + 12C reaction at E/sub 14N/ = 86.9 and 157.0 MeV. Statistical model calculations are compared with the data in order to determine the reaction mechanism. It is concluded that more than half of the total Li and Be yield at these bombarding energies arises from processes other than compound nucleus formation and the subsequent evaporation of a /sup 6,7/Li or /sup 7,9/Be nucleus. The most likely production mechanism at high bombarding energies appears to be the decay of a projectile-like fragment excited in a peripheral collision
