Three- α particle correlations in quasi-projectile decay in 12C + 24Mg collisions at 35A MeV
Abstract
Two and multi particle correlations have been studied in peripheral 12C + 24Mg collisions at 35A MeV with CHIMERA 4 π multi detector, in order to explore resonances produced in light nuclei. Correlations techniques have become a tool to explore nuclear structure properties but also to evaluate the competition between simultaneous and sequential channels in decay of light isotopes. The exploration of features such as branching ratios with respect to different decay channels (sequential vs. simultaneous) could provide information on in-medium effects on nuclear structure properties, an important perspective for research on the nuclear interaction. The performed experiment is preliminary to further studies to be performed by coupling of CHIMERA to FARCOS (Femtoscope ARray for COrrelations and Spectroscopy, FARCOS TDR available at https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5CgGWz8LpOOc3pGTWdOcDBoWFE) array devoted to measurements of two and multi particle correlations with high energy and angular resolutions.
