In order to evaluate TTYs on radioactive targets, we suggest a conversion method from inverse kinematics corresponding to the reaction of radioactive beams on stable targets. The method to deduce the TTY is theoretically derived from inverse kinematics. We apply the method to the natCu(12C,X)24Na reaction to confirm availability.

In order to evaluate TTY on radioactive targets including LLFP, we suggest a conversion method from inverse kinematics corresponding to the reaction of radioactive beams on stable targets. We demonstrate the method to deduce the TTY from inverse kinematics derived from the theoretical definition. This method is highly applicable in reactions at the energy per nucleon \\epsilon > 20 MeV/A as practically confirmed by the simulation of the SRIM2008 code. In this paper, we apply the method to the natCu(12C,X)24Na reaction to confirm availability. In addition, it is applied to the 137Cs + 12C reaction to reduce 137Cs and to suggest a TTY measurement of the 137Cs induced reaction on a thick 12C target.", "comment": "8 pages, 2 figures, Submitted to Journal of Nuclear Science and Technology", "journal": null, "doi": null }, { "version": "v2", "updated": "2015-04-10T07:12:55.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "inverse kinematics", "thick-target yield", "radioactive targets", "represents basic data", "thick 12c target" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1016/j.nimb.2015.04.002", "journal": "Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research B", "year": 2015, "month": "Jun", "volume": 353, "pages": 1 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1330006, "adsabs": "2015NIMPB.353....1A" } } }
