Clustering features of $^9$Be, $^{14}$N, $^7$Be, and $^8$B nuclei in relativistic fragmentation


الملخص بالإنكليزية

Recent studies of clustering in light nuclei with an initial energy above 1 A GeV in nuclear treack emulsion are overviewed. The results of investigations of the relativistic $^9$Be nuclei fragmentation in emulsion, which entails the production of He fragments, are presented. It is shown that most precise angular measurements provided by this technique play a crucial role in the restoration of the excitation spectrum of the $alpha$ particle sysytem. In peripheral interactions $^9$Be nuclei are dissociated practically totally through the 0$^+$ and 2$^+$ states of the $^8$Be nucleus. The results of investigations of the dissociation of a $^{14}$N nucleus of momentum 2.86 A GeV/c in emulsion are presented as example of more complicated system. The momentum and correlation characteristics of $alpha$ particles for the $^{14}$N$to3alpha+X$ channel in the laboratory system and the rest systems of 3$alpha$ particles were considered in detail. Topology of charged fragments produced in peripheral relativistic dissociation of radioactive $^8$B, $^7$Be nuclei in emulsion is studied.
