Dependence of the cross sections for Ir isotopes on the values of Qgg in the heavy ion collision

197Au were irradiated with 47 MeV/u 12C ions. Iridium was produced via the multinucleon transfer reactions in bombardments of 197Au with 12C. and was separated radiochemically from Au and the mixture of the reaction products. The γ radioactivities of Ir isotopes were measured by using a HPGe detector. The production cross sections of Ir isotopes were determined from activities of Ir isotopes at the end of bombardment and the other relative data. It has been found that the cross sections for neutron-rich iso...

An outlook of heavy ion driven plasma research at IMP-Lanzhou

Since the successful completion of the cooling storage ring (CSR) project in China at the end of 2007, high qualitative heavy ion beams with energy ranging from keV to GeV/u have been available at the Heavy Ion Research Facility at Lanzhou (HIRFL). More than 1091 GeV/u C6+particles or 108235 MeV/u Xe particles can be stored in the CSR main-ring and extracted within hundred nano-seconds during the test running,the beam parameters will be improved in the coming years so that high energy density (HED) conditions could be achieved and investigated there. Recent scientific results from the experiments relevant to plasma research on HIRFL are summarized. Dense plasma research with intense heavy ion beams of CSR is proposed here.

Experimental verification of therapeutic doses for the superficially-placed tumor radiotherapy with heavy ions at HIRFL

Up to now, clinical trials of heavy-ion radiotherapy for superficially placed tumors have been carried out for six times and over 60 selected patients have been treated with 80—100 MeV/u carbon ions supplied by the Heavy Ion Research Facility in Lanzhou (HIRFL) at the Institute of Modern Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences since November, 2006. A passive irradiation system and a dose optimization method for radiotherapy with carbon-ion beams have been developed. Experimental verification of longitudinally ...

Pion Production in Heavy-ion Collisions in the 1 A GeV region

Within the framework of the improved isospin dependent quantum molecular dynamics (ImIQMD) model, the pion emission in heavy-ion collisions in the region 1AGeV is investigated systematically, in which the pion is considered to be mainly produced by the decay of resonances ∆(1232) and N∗(1440). The in-medium dependence and Coulomb effects of the pion production are included in the calculation. Total pion multiplicity and π−/π+ yields are calculated for the reaction 197Au+197Au in central collisions for selected Skyrme parameters SkP, SLy6,Ska, SIII and compared them with the measured data by the FOPI collaboration.

核物质对称能的高密行为研究

One of the major tasks of studying isospin physics via heavy-ion collisions with neutron-rich nuclei, is to explore the isospin dependence of in-medium nuclear effective interactions and the equation of state of neutron-rich nuclear matter, i.e., the density dependence of nuclear symmetry energy. Because of its great importance for understanding many phenomena in both nuclear physics and astrophysics, the study of the density dependence of nuclear symmetry energy has been the main focus of the intermediate。中文摘要：同位旋物理的主要任务之一是通过放射性核束引起的核反应来探索介质中有效核子  核子相互作用的同位旋依赖性，尤其是同位旋相关的核物质状态方程，即，密度依赖的核物质对称能。由于对称能，尤其是其高密行为，对核物理学和天体物理学具有重要意义，密度依赖的对称能在过去10年一直是中能重离子物理研究领域的主要焦点之一。近年来，低密对称能的研究已经取得了重要进展，而对称能的高密行为仍然很不确定。在理论方面，人们提出了许多对高密对称能敏感的观测量。实验方面，关于对称能高密行为研究的实验计划已经展开，世界各地正在建造的放射性核束装置为对称能的高密行为研究提供了新的机遇。基于Ｉ ＢＵＵ输运模型综述了研究对称能高密行为的一些敏感观测量及其最新进展，以及所面临的挑战与机遇。

Design of the IMP microbeam irradiation system for 100 MeV/u heavy ions

Abstract A state-of-the-art high energy heavy ion microbeam irradiation system is constructed at the Institute of Modern Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. This microbeam system operates in both full current intensity mode and single ion mode. It delivers a predefined number of ions to preselected targets for research in biology and material science. The characteristic of this microbeam system is high energy and vertical irradiation. A quadrupole focusing system, in combination with a series of slits, has been designed to optimize the spatial resolution. A symmetrically achromatic system leads the beam downwards and serves simultaneously as an energy analyzer. A high gradient quadrupole triplet finally focuses a C6+ ion beam to 1 µm in the vacuum chamber within the energy range from 10 MeV/u to 100 MeV/u. In this paper, the IMP microbeam system is described in detail. A systematic investigation of the ion beam optics of this microbeam system is presented together with the associated aberrations. Comparison is made between the IMP microbeam system and the other existing systems to further discuss the performance of this microbeam. Then the optimized initial beam parameters are given for high resolution and high hitting efficiency. At last, the experiment platform is briefly introduced.
