Phenomenological analysis of breakup of 9Be nuclei into two α-particles and neutron in peripheral interactions with emulsion nuclei
Annotatsiya
Phenomenological Monte Carlo model of peripheral interactions of 9 Be nuclei with emulsion nuclei at [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]GeV with formation of an excited 9 Be* nucleus and its subsequent breakup, either directly or through formation of an intermediate 8 Be nucleus, into two [Formula: see text]-particles and a neutron was constructed. A comparative analysis of the experimental data on angular correlations and momentum spectra of [Formula: see text]-particles, coming from a breakup event, with the Monte Carlo model calculations was made. The constructed Monte Carlo model described quite satisfactory the total momentum and transverse momentum distributions of [Formula: see text]-particles and the distribution of angles between the total momentum (as well as transverse momentum) vectors of two [Formula: see text]-particles in 9 Be* nucleus breakup events in experiment. For the first time, the total momentum and transverse momentum distributions of neutrons, accompanying two [Formula: see text]-particles from 9 Be* decay, in peripheral interactions of 9 Be nuclei with emulsion nuclei were reconstructed using the Monte Carlo model.
