Excitation Functions for Nucleon and Alpha-Particle Transfer Reactions Induced byN14Ions

Abstract
Nitrogen ions, accelerated in the ORNL 63-in. cyclotron and tandem Van de Graaff, were utilized in a study of nucleon and alpha-particle transfer reactions. The reaction products were identified by means of their characteristic gamma rays and half-lives, and quantitatively studied by radioactive assay. In all, 21 reactions were investigated. The following nucleon transfer reactions were studied: C12 (N14, N13) C13; O16 (N14, N13) O17; O16 (N14, N15) O15; F19 (N14, N15) F18; P31 (N14, N13) P32; Sc45(N14,
