4. β4 deformation of 24Mg using quasi-elastic measurement

β4 deformation of 24Mg using quasi-elastic measurement

Published: July 2020 Garg

Lead Author(s): Y.K. Gupta

Quasi-elastic scattering measurements were performed using ¹⁶O and ²⁴Mg projectiles off ⁹⁰Zr at energies around the Coulomb barrier. Data were analyzed in the framework of coupled channels. Bayesian analysis is carried out for ²⁴Mg + ⁹⁰Zr reaction. The hexadecapole deformation of ²⁴Mg has been measured very precisely for the first time. Learn more.
