Correlated ionisations in two spatially separated nanometric volumes in the track structure of 241Am alpha particles: comparison with Monte Carlo simulations
Gerhard Hilgers, Thomas Braunroth, Hans Rabus
The production of two double strand breaks in spatially separated locations on the DNA molecule can cause the loss of a whole DNA loop, which can be of substantial length depending…
Characterisation of the PTB ion counter nanodosimeter's target volume and its equivalent size in terms of liquid H2O
Gerhard Hilgers, Thomas Braunroth, Hans Rabus
For the first time a dedicated investigation of the target size of a nanodosimeter device has been carried out in order to investigate to what extent measured ionisation cluster si…
Complete set of bound negative-parity states in the neutron-rich 18N nucleus
S. Ziliani, M. Ciemała, F. C. L. Crespi +54
High-resolution gamma-ray spectroscopy of 18N is performed with the Advanced GAmma Tracking Array AGATA, following deep-inelastic processes induced by an 18O beam on a 181Ta target…
Muon Radiography to Visualise Individual Fuel Rods in Sealed Casks
T. Braunroth, N. Berner, F. Rowold +2
Cosmic-ray muons can be used for the non-destructive imaging of spent nuclear fuel in sealed dry storage casks. The scattering data of the muons after traversing provides informati…
Lifetime Measurements in the Even-Even Cd Isotopes
M. Siciliano, J. J. Valiente-Dobón, A. Goasduff +34
The heaviest N=Z doubly-magic nucleus, Sn, and the neighboring nuclei offer unique opportunities to investigate the properties of nuclear interaction in extreme conditions.…
Accessing tens-to-hundreds femtoseconds nuclear state lifetimes with low-energy binary heavy-ion reactions
M. Ciemala, S. Ziliani, F. C. L. Crespi +52
A novel Monte Carlo technique has been developed to determine lifetimes of excited states in the tens-to-hundreds femtoseconds range. The method is applied to low-energy heavy-ion…
Shape coexistence in the neutron-deficient Hg investigated via lifetime measurements
M. Siciliano, I. Zanon, A. Goasduff +41
Shape coexistence in the region has been established in mercury, lead and polonium isotopes. Even-even mercury isotopes with present multiple f…
Testing ab initio nuclear structure in neutron-rich nuclei: lifetime measurements of second 2+ states in 16C and 20O
M. Ciemala, S. Ziliani, F. C. L. Crespi +91
To test the predictive power of ab initio nuclear structure theory, the lifetime of the second 2+ state in neutron-rich 20O, tau(2+_2 ) = 150(+80-30) fs, and an estimate for the li…
Pairing-quadrupole interplay in the neutron-deficient tin nuclei: first lifetime measurements of low-lying states in Sn
M. Siciliano, J. J. Valiente-Dobón, A. Goasduff +67
The lifetimes of the low-lying excited states and have been directly measured in the neutron-deficient Sn isotopes. The nuclei were populated via a deep-ine…
Evidence for coexisting shapes in Zr through lifetime measurements
Purnima Singh, W. Korten, T. W. Hagen +35
The lifetimes of first excited 2, 4 and 6 states in Zr were measured with the Recoil-Distance Doppler Shift method in an experiment performed at GANIL. Excited s…
A revised value in the semi-magic nucleus Po
D. Kocheva, G. Rainovski, J. Jolie +29
The lifetimes of the , the and the states of Po have been measured in the Pb(C,Be)Po transfer reaction by the Doppler-s…
