Blocking effect in the16+→16+(p,t) transition on the isomericHfm2178target

Abstract
The availability of a target of Hf178 in its aligned four-quasiparticle, Jπ=16+ isomeric state, has allowed to measure the effect of blocking of the aligned-quasineutron orbitals in the (p,t) reaction. The experimental ratio of cross sections R=σ(16+16+)/σ(0+0+) agrees with a predicted value deduced from the known (p,t) cross section on odd Hf isotopes.
