Strong evidence for 9N and the limits of existence of atomic nuclei
R. J. Charity, J. Wylie, S. M. Wang +21
The boundaries of the Chart of Nuclides contain exotic isotopes that possess extreme proton-toneutron asymmetries. Here we report on strong evidence of 9N, one of the most exotic p…
Pion Production in Rare Isotope Collisions
M. B. Tsang, J. Estee, H. Setiawan +15
Pion energy spectra are presented for central collisions of neutron-rich 132Sn+124Sn and neutron-deficient 108Sn+112Sn systems using simulations with Boltzmann-Uehling-Uhlenbeck tr…
Determination of energy-dependent neutron backgrounds using shadow bars
S. N. Paneru, K. W. Brown, F. C. E Teh +17
Understanding the neutron background is essential for determining the neutron yield from nuclear reactions. In the analysis presented here, the shadow bars are placed in front of n…
Non-linearity effects on the light-output calibration of light charged particles in CsI(Tl) scintillator crystals
D. Dell'Aquila, S. Sweany, K. W. Brown +24
The light output produced by light ions (Z<=4) in CsI(Tl) crystals is studied over a wide range of detected energies (E<=300 MeV). Energy-light calibration data sets are obtained w…
First observation of unbound O, the mirror of the halo nucleus Li
T. B. Webb, S. M. Wang, K. W. Brown +23
The structure of the extremely proton-rich nucleus O, the mirror of the two-neutron halo nucleus Li, has been studied experimentally for the first t…
SRIT: A time-projection chamber for symmetry-energy studies
R. Shane, A. McIntosh, T. Isobe +25
A Time-Projection Chamber (TPC) called the SAMURAI Pion-Reconstruction and Ion-Tracker (SRIT) has recently been constructed at Michigan State University as part of an internati…
