Abstract
The determination of absolute branching ratios for high-energy states
in light nuclei is an important and useful tool for probing the
underlying nuclear structure of individual resonances: for example, in
establishing the tendency of an excited state towards
\alphaα-cluster
structure. Difficulty arises in measuring these branching ratios due to
similarities in available decay channels, such as
(\mathbf{^{18}}18O,\mathbf{n}𝐧)
and (\mathbf{^{18}}18O,\mathbf{2n}2𝐧),
as well as differences in geometric efficiencies due to population of
bound excited levels in daughter nuclei. Methods are presented using
Monte Carlo techniques to overcome these issues.
