“…A preliminary analysis within the formalism of the optical model with the code FRESCO [7] gave a total reaction cross section of 561 ± 36 mb, in good agreement with the trend of the total reaction cross section data obtained by E.F. Aguilera and collaborators at lower beam energies [8]. 3 shows the angular distributions for 3,4 He reaction products measured for the system 7 Be + 58 Ni at 22.3 MeV beam energy. We immediately realize that 4 He ions are about 5 times more abundant that 3 He nuclei.…”

“…The experiment was performed at the INFN-Laboratori Nazionali di Legnaro (LNL), where the 7 Be beam was delivered by the facility EXOTIC [2][3][4], now fully operational for the in-flight production of light weakly-bound RIBs. The 7 Be secondary beam was produced via the two-body reaction p( 7 Li, 7 Be)n induced by a 34.2 MeV 7 Li primary beam, delivered by the LNL-XTU Tandem accelerator, impinging on H 2 gas target.…”

“…3 shows the angular distributions for 3,4 He reaction products measured for the system 7 Be + 58 Ni at 22.3 MeV beam energy. We immediately realize that 4 He ions are about 5 times more abundant that 3 He nuclei. The angle-integrated cross sections for 4 He and 3 He sum up to ~ 160 mb and ~ 28 mb, respectively.…”

“…7 Be was chosen since it has a very small particle emission threshold (S α = 1.586 MeV) and since the majority of direct processes gives rise to either 3 He or 4 He stable ions (with similar energy domains) in the reaction output channels. This feature simplifies the experimental setup and avoids typical problems related to the low-efficiency detection of neutrons (as in 6,8 He-, 9,11 Li-and 9,11 Be-reaction studies), the emission of radioactive or loosely-bound nuclei (as in the case of reactions involving 6,7 Li or 8 B) or the detection of projectile fragments with completely different mass ranges, and in turn energy domains, (as for 17 F breaking up into 16 O+p).…”

Abstract. We measured for the first time 7 Be elastically scattered nuclei as well as 3,4 He reaction products from a 58 Ni target at 22.3 MeV beam energy. The data were analyzed within the optical model formalism to extract the total reaction cross section. Extensive kinematical, Distorted Wave Born Approximation (DWBA) and Continuum Discretized Coupled Channel (CDCC) calculations were performed to investigate the 3,4 He originating mechanisms and the interplay between different reaction channels.
