Neutron transfer in 9Be + 159Tb system.

One neutron stripping cross sections ( σ - 1 n ) are measured in 9 Be+ 159 Tb system in the energy range E cm /V B ∼ 0.79–1.24 using offline gamma counting technique. The CRC model calculations including the ground state and the 2 + resonance state of 8 Be, carried out using the FRESCO code, give a reasonable description of the measured data. In addition, comparisons of reduced 1n-stripping cross sections- σ red with 9 Be for different target nuclei (A ∼ 150–200), and σ red for 9 Be, 6 Li with 159 Tb target are presented. While no strong target dependence is observed with 9 Be projectile, σ red ( 9 Be) is significantly larger than that for 6 Li, which is consistent with the Q-value for transfer reactions and breakup threshold energy of projectiles.
