Research Abstract |
We have developed a simple couter apparatus to measure the electric quadrupole moments of the first 2^+ states and the B(E3) reduced transition probabilities. We apply the reorientation effect to extract the quadrupole moments. The quadrupole moment Q can be obtained from ratios of inelastic-scattering yields to total-scattering yields by changing incident-ion species. We use two different beams, i,e. 9 MeV and 38 MeV 160 beams. The beam is generated by the T.I.T. 4.75 MV Van de Graaff and the 160 beam by the T.I.T. heavy-ion linear accelerator. The linear accelerator was installed in 1984 and since then we have made efforts to improve beam optics. We can now obtain a beam current of a few nA with a spot size of 2 mm on targets. The absolute enrgy of the 160 beam was calibrated with the Rutherford backscattering for hydrogen and oxygen beams. The apparatus consists of a well-type BGO gamma-ray detector and an annular-type Si detector. The size of the BGO crystal is 60 mm x 80 mm with a well of 20 mm . A photomultiplier tube is mounted on the back side of the BGO crystal. Gamma-ray coincidence with the BGO detector intensifies the inelastic-scattering events against the strong elastic scattering. The beam is stopped on the target. We collect about 3000 counts of the inelastic events in a measurement time of one to two days. We have tested the apparatus by measuring the moment Q for the first 2^+ state in ^<114>CD. Our value is in agreement with those previously reported within the errors.
