A stacked-target of natural lanthanum foils (99.9119% $^{139}$La) was irradiated using a 60 MeV proton beam at the LBNL 88-Inch Cyclotron. $^{139}$La(p,x) cross sections are reported between 35-60 MeV for nine radionuclides. The primary motivation for this measurement was the need to quantify the production of $^{134}$Ce. As a positron-emitting analogue of the promising medical radionuclide $^{225}$Ac, $^{134}$Ce is desirable for in vivo applications of bio-distribution assays for this emerging radio-pharmaceutical. The results of this measurement were compared to the nuclear model codes TALYS, EMPIRE and ALICE (using default parameters), which showed significant deviation from the measured values.

A set of prompt partial $gamma$-ray production cross sections from thermal neutron-capture were measured for the $^{139}$La($n,gamma$) reaction using a guided beam of subthermal (thermal and cold) neutrons incident upon a $^{rm nat}$La$_{2}$O$_{3}$ t
arget at the Prompt Gamma Activation Analysis facility of the Budapest Research Reactor. Absolute $^{140}$La cross sections were determined relative to the well-known comparator $^{35}$Cl($n,gamma$) cross sections from the irradiation of a stoichiometric $^{rm nat}$LaCl$_{3}$ sample. The total cross section for radiative thermal neutron-capture on $^{139}$La from the sum of experimentally measured cross sections observed to directly feed the $^{140}$La ground state was determined to be $sigma_{0}^{rm expt} = 8.58(50)$ b. To assess completeness of the decay scheme and as a consistency check, the measured cross sections for transitions feeding the ground state from levels below a critical energy of $E_{c} = 285$ keV were combined with a modeled contribution accounting for ground-state feeding from the quasicontinuum to arrive at a total cross section of $sigma_{0} = 9.36(74)$ b. In addition, a neutron-separation energy of $S_{n} = 5161.005(21)$ keV was determined from a least-squares fit of the measured primary $gamma$-ray energies to the low-lying levels of the $^{140}$La decay scheme. Furthermore, several nuclear structure improvements are proposed for the decay scheme. The measured cross-section and separation-energy results are comparable to earlier measurements of these quantities.
During therapeutic treatment with heavy ions like carbon, the beam undergoes nuclear fragmentation and secondary light charged particles, in particular protons and alpha particles, are produced. To estimate the dose deposited into the tumors and the
surrounding healthy tissues, an accurate prediction on the fluences of these secondary fragments is necessary. Nowadays, a very limited set of double di ffential carbon fragmentation cross sections are being measured in the energy range used in hadrontherapy (40 to 400 MeV/u). Therefore, new measurements are performed to determine the double di ffential cross section of carbon on di erent thin targets. This work describes the experimental results of an experiment performed on May 2011 at GANIL. The double di ffential cross sections and the angular distributions of secondary fragments produced in the 12C fragmentation at 95 MeV/u on thin targets (C, CH2, Al, Al2O3, Ti and PMMA) have been measured. The experimental setup will be precisely described, the systematic error study will be explained and all the experimental data will be presented.
[Background] The electromagnetic form factors of the proton measured by unpolarized and polarized electron scattering experiments show a significant disagreement that grows with the squared four momentum transfer ($Q^{2}$). Calculations have shown th
at the two measurements can be largely reconciled by accounting for the contributions of two-photon exchange (TPE). TPE effects are not typically included in the standard set of radiative corrections since theoretical calculations of the TPE effects are highly model dependent, and, until recently, no direct evidence of significant TPE effects has been observed. [Purpose] We measured the ratio of positron-proton to electron-proton elastic-scattering cross sections in order to determine the TPE contribution to elastic electron-proton scattering and thereby resolve the proton electric form factor discrepancy. [Methods] We produced a mixed simultaneous electron-positron beam in Jefferson Labs Hall B by passing the 5.6 GeV primary electron beam through a radiator to produce a bremsstrahlung photon beam and then passing the photon beam through a convertor to produce electron/positron pairs. The mixed electron-positron (lepton) beam with useful energies from approximately 0.85 to 3.5 GeV then struck a 30-cm long liquid hydrogen (LH$_2$) target located within the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer (CLAS). By detecting both the scattered leptons and the recoiling protons we identified and reconstructed elastic scattering events and determined the incident lepton energy. A detailed description of the experiment is presented.
Differential cross sections for deuteron breakup $^{1}H(d, pp)n$ reaction were measured for a large set of 243 geometrical configurations at the beam energy of 80 MeV/nucleon. The cross section data are normalized by the luminosity factor obtained on
the basis of simultaneous measurement of elastic scattering channel and the existing cross section data for this process. The results are compared to the theoretical calculations modeling nuclear interaction with and without taking into account the three-nucleon force (3NF) and Coulomb interaction. In the validated region of the phase space both the Coulomb force and 3NF play an important role in a good description of the data. There are also regions, where the improvements of description due to including 3NF are not sufficient.
In this paper we report cross-section measurements for $Xi^-p$ elastic and inelastic scatterings at low energy using a scintillating fiber active target. Upper limit on the total cross-section for the elastic scattering was found to be 24 mb at 90% c
onfidence level, and the total cross section for the $Xi^-ptoLambdaLambda$ reaction was found to be $4.3^{+6.3}_{-2.7}$ mb. We compare the results with currently competing theoretical estimates.
