Where next (with HDU)?. Q-value mass. excitation energies. Angular distributions of recoils l -value spectroscopic information. Transfer reaction toolbox. Where next …. Beyond 132 Sn 134 Sn, 136 Te etc.. Proton states with (d,n). 2-neutron transfer (t,p)? ( 10 Be, 8 Be)?

Where next (with HDU)? • Q-value • mass. • excitation energies. • Angular distributions of recoils • l-value • spectroscopic information
Where next … • Beyond 132Sn • 134Sn, 136Te etc.. • Proton states with (d,n). • 2-neutron transfer (t,p)? (10Be,8Be)? • Beyond N=50 • 84Ge, 86Se etc.. • New regions • 70Ni region. • both neutron and proton single-particle states. • batch mode beams of 44Ti, 56Ni, 59Fe.
What is needed for a successful nuclear reaction program? (the theorist’s wish) • data for several channels (elastic, inelastic…) • range of energies (low versus high) • more theory Optical potentials are an essential input to calculations should we not be working toward a CH89_ri and BG_ri? - nucleon elastic scattering of rare isotopes at least (p,p) then theory for (n,n) (?) - heavy ion elastic scattering of rare isotopes • Other things that can help: • elastic • elastic breakup • inelastic breakup • (p,d) reaction models need to incorporate the structure: should we be using standard radius and diffuseness? by probing different energies we get a glimpse into different parts of the structure we are interested should we be using Hartree Fock densities, radii, etc for unstable nuclei? (often unable to even predict the correct bound state…) by probing different energies we can test whether our simplified structure assumptions are correct • needaccuratedescription of the reaction • better control over uncertainties in inputs • improved understanding of reaction dynamics • keeping contact with underlying many body structure

(d,n) and b-delayed neutrons with VANDLE • Intend to measure 25Al(d,n) • Astrophysically important 26Al possibly created by: • 25Al (p,γ)→26Si(β+) →26Al • rp-process waiting point nuclei • 56Ni(d,n) Optimize efficiency for 60° to 180° for ejected neutrons. 150 keV > En > 15 MeV 1.5 meter flight-path for large bars cover central angles. Shorter path for small bars cover lower energy neutrons at back angles.
