Alpha-Particle Condensation in Nuclear Systems
The onset of quartetting, i.e. α-particle condensation, in symmetric nuclear matter is studied with the help of an in-medium modified four nucleon equation. It is found that at very low density quartetting wins over pairing, because of the strong binding of the α-particles. The critical temperature can reach values up to around 6 MeV. Also the disappearance of α-particles with increasing densit...
متن کاملAlpha-particle condensation in nuclei
A round up of the present status of the conjecture that nα nuclei form an αparticle condensate in excited states close to the nα threshold is given. Experiments which could demonstrate the condensate character are proposed. Possible lines of further theoretical developments are discussed. In this article we want to report on the present status of our recent conjecture [1] that at least light nα...
متن کاملNuclear rainbow scattering and nucleus - nucleus potential
Elastic scattering of α-particle and some tightly-bound light nuclei has shown the pattern of rainbow scattering at medium energies, which is due to the refraction of the incident wave by a strongly attractive nucleus-nucleus potential. This review gives an introduction to the physics of the nuclear rainbow based essentially on the optical model description of the elastic scattering. Since the ...
متن کاملDetection of High-Angle Alpha Particle Scattering through Gold Foil
In the beginning of the 20th century, physicists had begun to determine the structure of atoms. J.J. Thomson had discovered the presence of electrons negatively charged particles with a mass much less than the overall mass of the electron using cathode rays[1]. Thomson further hypothesized that the full structure of the atom consisted of electrons surrounded by a ”soup” of positive charge. This...
متن کاملParticle Production in Tachyon Condensation
We study particle production in the tachyon condensation process as described by different effective actions for the tachyon. By making use of invariant operators, we are able to obtain exact results for the density of produced particles, which is shown to depend strongly on the specific action. In particular, the rate of particle production remains finite only for one of the actions considered...
