Analysis of possible systematic errors in the Oslo method
arXiv:1211.6264 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevC.83.034315
Abstract
In this work, we have reviewed the Oslo method, which enables the simultaneous extraction of level density and gamma-ray transmission coefficient from a set of particle-gamma coincidence data. Possible errors and uncertainties have been investigated. Typical data sets from various mass regions as well as simulated data have been tested against the assumptions behind the data analysis.
