Pygmy dipole resonance in ^140Ce via inelastic scattering of ^17O
2016
The γ decay from the high-lying states of ^140Ce excited via inelastic scattering of ^17O at a bombarding energy of 340 MeV was measured using the high-resolution
AGATA-demonstrator array in coincidence with scattered ions detected in two segmented Δ E-E silicon detectors. Angular distributions of scattered ions and emitted γ rays were measured, as well as their differential cross sections. The excitation of 1^− states below the neutron separation energy is similar to the one obtained in reactions with the α
isoscalarprobe. The comparison between the experimental differential cross sections and the corresponding predictions using the distorted-wave
Born approximationallowed us to extract the
isoscalarcomponent of identified 1^− pygmy states. For this analysis the form factor obtained by folding microscopically calculated transition densities and optical potentials was used.
