Differential Production Cross Sections for Isotopes of Light Nuclei in the Ta Reaction.

The results of experiments performed at a high-resolution magnetic spectrometer (MAVR) are presented. The differential production cross sections for oxygen isotopes in the Ta reaction at the projectile energy of 10 MeV per nucleon were measured at the MAVR facility. The yield of reaction products is analyzed theoretically in the finite-range distorted-wave Born approximation (FR-DWBA method) by means of the FRESCO code. The theoretical differential cross sections are calculated for sequential neutron transfer. The contributions of the mechanisms of sequential neutron transfer and dineutron-cluster transfer to the production cross sections for the neutron-rich oxygen isotopes O are studied.
