⁸Be and⁹B nuclei in dissociation of relativistic¹⁰C and¹¹C nuclei

Abstract

Progress in the study of nuclear clustering in the relativistic 10 C and 11 C nuclei dissociation in nuclear track emulsion is presented. The contribution of the unbound 8 Be and 9 B nuclei to their structure is determined on the basis of measurements of the emission angles of relativistic He and H fragments.Nuclear track emulsion (NTE) is exposed at the JINR Nuclotron to relativistic nuclei 7,9 Be, 8,10 B, 10,11 C and 12 N for the experimental study of the evolution of the cluster structure of light nuclei [reviewed in ref.[1], [2]]. Virtual cluster configurations in an incident nucleus are completely captured in coherent dissociation in which the target nucleus is not destroyed visibly ("white"stars). Therefore, the contributions of cluster states to the structure
