Cross Sections of the Rb(p,Sr and Kr(p,Rb Reactions at Energies Characteristic of the Astrophysical Process
M. Williams, B. Davids, G. Lotay +22
We have measured the cross section of the Rb(p,Sr radiative capture reaction in inverse kinematics using a radioactive beam of Rb at incident energies of 2.…
Key Ne states identified affecting -ray emission from F in novae
M. R. Hall, D. W. Barbadian, T. Baugher +34
Detection of nuclear-decay rays provides a sensitive thermometer of nova nucleosynthesis. The most intense -ray flux is thought to be annihilation radiation from the $β^+…
The PANDA GEM-based TPC Prototype
L. Fabbietti, H. Angerer, R. Beck +37
We report on the development of a GEM-based TPC prototype for the PANDA experiment. The design and requirements of this device will be illustrated, with particular emphasis on the…
Using graph neural networks to reconstruct charged pion showers in the CMS High Granularity Calorimeter
M. Aamir, G. Adamov, T. Adams +568
A novel method to reconstruct the energy of hadronic showers in the CMS High Granularity Calorimeter (HGCAL) is presented. The HGCAL is a sampling calorimeter with very fine transv…
First direct measurement constraining the Ar(,p)K reaction cross section for mixed hydrogen and helium burning in accreting neutron stars
J. Browne, K. A. Chipps, K. Schmidt +25
The rate of the final step in the astrophysical p-process, the Ar(,\textit{p})K reaction, suffers from large uncertainties due to lack of experimental data, d…
First Direct Measurement of an Astrophysical p-Process Reaction Cross Section Using a Radioactive Ion Beam
G. Lotay, S. A. Gillespie, M. Williams +35
We have performed the first direct measurement of the 83Rb(p,g) radiative capture reaction cross section in inverse kinematics using a radioactive beam of 83Rb at incident energies…
New -ray Transitions Observed in Ne with Implications for the O(,)Ne Reaction Rate
M. R. Hall, D. W. Bardayan, T. Baugher +34
The O(,)Ne reaction is responsible for breakout from the hot CNO cycle in Type I x-ray bursts. Understanding the properties of resonances between an…
Development of the (d,n) proton-transfer reaction in inverse kinematics for structure studies
K. L. Jones, C. Thornsberry, J. Allen +27
Transfer reactions have provided exciting opportunities to study the structure of exotic nuclei and are often used to inform studies relating to nucleosynthesis and applications. I…
