The (Li-6,Li-6*[3.56 MeV]) reaction at 100 MeV/u as a probe of Gamow-Teller transition strengths in the inelastic scattering channel

摘要

Background: Inelastic neutrino-nucleus scattering is important for understanding core-collapse supernovae and the detection of emitted neutrinos from such events in earth-based detectors. Direct measurement of the cross sections is difficult and has only been performed on a few nuclei. It is, therefore, important to develop indirect techniques from which the inelastic neutrino-nucleus scattering cross sections can be determined.
