Probing high-momentum components in 16O via zero-degree (p,d) cross-section ratios
Abstract
The 16O(p,d)15O reaction was measured at zero degrees for incident-proton energies of 403, 604, 907 and 1209 MeV. Cross-section ratios for the 6.18-MeV (3/2-) and 5.24-MeV (5/2+) excited-state transitions, normalized to the ground-state transition, were previously reported in Wang et al., Phys. Lett. B 879, 140563 (2026), doi:10.1016/j.physletb.2026.140563, together with their implications for high-momentum neutron components in 16O. The present work extends that study by providing additional experimental and data-analysis details, and by reporting for the first time the ratio R7.3, defined as the cross section populating the 7.28-MeV (7/2+) state relative to that for the ground state. The positive-parity state ratios exhibit a pronounced momentum dependence, consistent with representative variational Monte Carlo trends.

AB - The ^16O(p,d)^15O reaction was measured at zero degrees for incident-proton energies of 403, 604, 907 and 1209 MeV. Cross-section ratios for the 6.18-MeV (3/2^-) and 5.24-MeV (5/2^+) excited-state transitions, normalized to the ground-state transition, were previously reported in Wang et al., Phys. Lett. B 879, 140563 (2026), doi:10.1016/j.physletb.2026.140563, together with their implications for high-momentum neutron components in ^16O. The present work extends that study by providing additional experimental and data-analysis details, and by reporting for the first time the ratio R_7.3, defined as the cross section populating the 7.28-MeV (7/2^+) state relative to that for the ground state. The positive-parity state ratios exhibit a pronounced momentum dependence, consistent with representative variational Monte Carlo trends.
