这项拨款支持一项实验性的研究计划， 核物理，由教师和本科生进行 在奥伯林学院 探测阿尔法星系团的测量 Li-6的结构将使用500 MeV的质子束进行 来自B的温哥华的TRIUMPF加速器。C.和结果 将在奥伯林进行分析 此外，总截面 Li-6和Li-7与Si相互作用的测量将是 用圣母大学的横梁 加速器 这些测量将提供新的信息和测试 核Li-6的理论模型。 与会 本科生将获得一个工作熟悉， 现代核物理概念和仪器。

This grant supports a program of research in experimental nuclear physics, conducted by faculty and undergraduate students at Oberlin College. Measurements probing the alpha-cluster structure of Li-6 will be carried out using 500 MeV proton beams from the TRIUMPF accelerator in Vancouver, B. C. and the results will be analyzed at Oberlin. In addition, total cross section measurements for Li-6 and Li-7 interactions with Si will be carried out with beams from the Notre Dame University tandem accelerator. These measurements will provide new information and test theoretical models of the nucleus Li-6. The participating undergraduate students will gain a working familiarity with modern nuclear physics concepts and instrumentation.
