RESUMO
Collisions induced by (9,10,11)Be on a 64Zn target at the same c.m. energy were studied. For the first time, strong effects of the 11Be halo structure on elastic-scattering and reaction mechanisms at energies near the Coulomb barrier are evidenced experimentally. The elastic-scattering cross section of the 11Be halo nucleus shows unusual behavior in the Coulomb-nuclear interference peak angular region. The extracted total-reaction cross section for the 11Be collision is more than double the ones measured in the collisions induced by (9,10)Be. It is shown that such a strong enhancement of the total-reaction cross section with 11Be is due to transfer and breakup processes.
RESUMO
The density dependence of the diffusive rotational and center-of-mass dynamics of 2-methyl-pyridine is investigated by means of the concurrent use of quasielastic neutron scattering and molecular dynamics simulations. The dependence of both translation and rotational diffusion coefficients shows a distinctive change of slope with increasing density taking place about rho=0.975 g/cm3. Such a change in the dynamics can be related to observations made in other liquids composed of oblate-spheroidal particles.
RESUMO
Microscopic motions in molten potassium spanning three frequency decades are studied by neutron-scattering techniques. These comprise well-defined density oscillations and stochastic particle rearrangements and both are modeled on microscopic grounds. While vibratory motions are shown to share characteristics with those of their parent crystals, dynamic correlations between a diffusing particle and its neighbors can be accounted for only semiquantitatively.
