Narrow resonances in the continuum of the unbound nucleus F
V. Girard-Alcindor, A. Mercenne, I. Stefan +100
The structure of the unbound F nucleus is investigated using the inverse kinematics resonant scattering of a radioactive O beam impinging on a CH target. The anal…
Implications for Type Ia Supernova Nucleosynthesis from an Experimentally Constrained ON Reaction Rate
M. Alruwaili, C. Fougeres, A. M. Laird +13
The ON reaction plays a key role in shaping the -particle abundance during explosive oxygen burning in Type Ia supernovae. By enhancing -production, thi…
From nuclei to neutron stars: simple binding energy computer modelling in the classroom (part 2)
A. Rios, A. Pastore, C. Diget +3
We introduce two simple online activities to explore the physics of neutron stars. These provide an introduction to the basic properties of compact objects, like their masses and r…
From nuclei to neutron stars: simple binding energy computer modelling in the classroom (Part 1)
A. Pastore, A. M. Romero, C. Diget +3
We present a simple activity based on the liquid-drop model which allows secondary school students to explore the uses of mathematical models and gain an intuitive understanding of…
