Nuclear Structure and Nuclear Processes at Intermediate Energies (Physics)

这项支助用于印第安纳大学回旋加速器设施的运作和1988-1990年期间的实验核物理学研究。在此期间，一个电子冷却存储环（冷却器）将完成。冷却器将作为现有回旋加速器束的后加速器，将能量增加2.5倍，并提供异常高的能量分辨率和容易变化的能量。研究的重点是核内自由有效相互作用和核响应函数的研究。核结构问题和高动量传递和高激发能下的核反应也在研究中。加速器物理研究是Cooler开发项目的一部分。印第安纳大学回旋加速器设施（IUCF）是一个用于中能核物理基础研究的国家设施。

This support is for operation of the Indiana University Cyclotron Facility and for research in experimental nuclear physics for the 1988-1990 period. During this time an electron-cooled storage ring (the Cooler) will be completed. The Cooler will serve as a post accelerator for the existing cyclotron beam, increasing the energy by a factor of 2.5, and providing beams with unusually high energy resolution and readily variable energy. The research focuses on studies of free and effective interactions in nuclei and of nuclear response functions. Nuclear structure problems and nuclear reactions at high momentum transfer and high excitation energy are also being investigated. Research in accelerator physics is part of the Cooler development program. The Indiana University Cyclotron Facility (IUCF) is a national facility for basic research in intermediate energy nuclear physics.
