The (n,p) Reaction as a Probe of Nuclear Structure

  • Chapter
Spin Observables of Nuclear Probes

Abstract

What follows is a brief account of some of the results of studies of the (n, p) reaction on nuclear targets initiated at TRIUMF in December 1985. The close connection between studies of nucleon charge exchange reactions and spin excitations in nuclei has been a central theme of earlier conferences held here at Telluride. The emphasis at this conference is on the information uniquely accessible through measurements of spin observables in nuclear reactions at intermediate energies. The (n,p) reaction, inducing spin-flip transitions in isospin space, appears to exhibit a unique sensitivity to certain aspects of nuclear structure.
