Two-nucleon transfer reactions are a powerful tool for studying two-nucleon correlations. Among them, (t,p) two-neutron transfer reactions are suited to probe the pairing interactions in neutron-rich nuclei owing to the simple structure and the neutron excess of the triton. From an experimental point of view, (t,p) measurements on unstable nuclei are challenging as the measurements have to be performed in inverse kinematics and thus require a tritium target.
Recently, a tritium-loaded titanium target has become available at TRIUMF, and several experiments employing the target have been planned and approved. For the analysis and planning of future experiments, an evaluation of the target thickness is beneficial. Therefore, we performed measurements of elastic scattering at the ISAC-II facility, TRIUMF. The number of tritons in the target and the degree of hydrogen contamination were deduced from the data.
In this talk, the final result of the characterization of the target will be presented.
