Measurement of the isoscalar giant monopole resonance in ${}^{86}$Kr via deuteron inelastic scattering using an active target CAT-M

Abstract

Deuteron inelastic scattering on ${}^{86}$Kr was measured in inverse kinematics with the gaseous active target CAT-M, as part of a systematic investigation aimed at determining the nuclear matter incompressibility. The isoscalar monopole strength distribution was extracted via multipole decomposition analysis, and the energy of the isoscalar giant monopole resonance was determined to be 17 $\pm$ 1 MeV. The nuclear incompressibility of ${}^{86}$Kr and the isospin-dependent term of the nuclear matter incompressibility are discussed.
