摘要：A Coulomb dissociation experiment on the proton-rich 32Ar and 34Ar isotopes was performed at the ALADIN-LAND setup at GSI in Darmstadt. Recent RQRPA calculations show a low-lying E1 soft-vibrational mode at an excitation energy Ex 9 MeV for proton-rich argon isotopes at the dripline. In a macroscopic picture, this can be understood as an out-of-phase oscillation of a thin proton skin against the isospin-saturated core, similar to the neutron pygmy resonance at the neutron dripline. On the other hand, the measured (g , p) reactions are interesting for the calculation of reaction cross-sections and radiative proton capture rates for the rp-process. In this hydrogen burning process a lot of nuclear structure inputs are still missing. Especially in the argon region a bottleneck for the reaction flow is assumed at 30S and 34Ar. The impact of the predicted proton pygmy resonance on the reaction flow is not yet clear. The experimental motivation and the experiment itself are described. Identification plots for incoming and outgoing particles are shown and a tracking algorithm is applied and shows to work succesfully.
