Abstract

Experiments of 23Al and 22Mg radioactive beams bombarding a 12C target at an energy of 60 ∼70 A MeV have been performed at the projectile fragment separator beamline (RIPS) in the RIKEN Ring Cyclotron Facility to study the two-proton emission from 23Al and 22Mg excited states, respectively. The trajectorie of the decay products, namely 21Na + p + p from 23Al and 20Ne + p + p from 22Mg, are clean identified. The relative momentum and opening angle between two protons in the rest frame of three body decay channels are obtained by relativistic-kinematics reconstruction. The results demonstrate that there are some di-proton emission components from 2He cluster for the excited 23Al and 22Mg.
