We propose a comprehensive, systematic trajectory-based reexamination of the Fermi decelerator system, as a model for non-adiabatic dynamics in molecular and nuclear systems. We also plan to develop applications of quantum trajectory methods to nuclear reactions. (AU)
The principal objective of our research program is to develop formalisms and calculations that describe the structure and reactions of exotic nuclei. These nuclei are characterized by their low binding energy and inhomogeneous structure, consisting of a core plus halo or of two or more smaller clusters. These properties are especially important in reactions, where dissociation of the exo…
The goals of the project are to 1) conclude the development of a Dirac-Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov code for the ground state of axially symmetric nuclei and develop a density-dependent effective interaction based on Dirac-Brueckner calculations in order to use the code to study nuclei at zero and finite temperature and 2) begin the study of light nuclei in the ab-initio shell model using a m…
Our aim in the present project is to study few-body aspects of many-body systems in general physics, atomic-molecular physics, nuclear and hadronic physics. With this project, we intend to continue our studies, developed in the last years with collaborators, which have received support from FAPESP, in two thematic projects (See Projs. 1999/04583-1 and 2003/10525-1). These projects reache…

The principal goal of the project is to apply a formal decomposition of the reaction cross section to calculate the complete and incomplete fusion cross sections of weakly-bound nuclei and to compare these to experimental data and phenomenological models of the decomposition. (AU)
Isoscalar (neutron-proton) correlations have been found experimentally to dominate the high momentum component of the nuclear wave function and are expected to play an important role in determining the characteristics of the surface region of nuclei far from stability. Similar large neutron-proton correlations are seen in studies of quasi-deuteron pairing in nuclear matter, but are restri…
Pre-equilibrium nuclear reactions occur on a time scale intermediate between the fast direct reactions and the slow evaporation from the compound nucleus. With increasing projectile energy, the pre-equilibrium reaction component becomes more and more visible in the reaction spectra and angular distributions, being of special importance in applications using energetic beams of nucleons suc…

Our general objectives concentrate on an analysis of the first two steps of a pre-equilibrium reaction and on the extension of the quantumformalism to include up to two particles in the continuum after the first interaction and up to three after the second interaction, the maximum number of continuum particles physically permitted. The studies to be performed at the Nuclear Data Section …
