E1106 calibration reaction

The reaction of interest is 17O (beam energy 3.45 MeV) + p (gas pressure 10 Torr) --> α + 14N, via a resonance in 18F of 183 keV lab resonance energy and width Γ=0.3 eV. The candidate calibration reaction is 18O+p-->15N + α via a 151 keV resonance in 19F with width Γ=0.3 keV.

kinematic curves for both reactions (the legend is wrong because I am a numpty: the residuals are obviously N isotopes not O isotopes)


cross sections for both reactions, as a function of position in the gas cell


Cross section as a function of position, for coincidence events


Residual (14N or 15N) hitting S2 detector: for coincidence events


alphas hitting barrel detector: for the same coincidence events
