Rapid structural evolution of neutron-rich silicon isotopes toward N = 28

G. L. Zimba, H. Iwasaki, B. A. Brown +27

Neutron-rich Si isotopes represent a unique case of shell evolution, exhibiting a robust shell closure at and pronounced quadrupole collectivity at . We report lifet…

Astrophysical significance of the isomer Ag demonstrated through direct mass measurement

F. Rivero, M. Brodeur, J. A. Clark +18

The abundance of elements heavier than iron produced via the astrophysical rapid-neutron capture process depends sensitively on the atomic mass of the involved nuclei as well as th…

Modeling of Light Production in Inorganic Scintillators

B. Kreider, I. Cox, R. Grzywacz +25

In recent experiments, inorganic scintillators have been used to study the decays of exotic nuclei, providing an alternative to silicon detectors and enabling measurements that wer…

The evidence of shell closure and -delayed neutron emission from F

J. F. Peltier, Z. Y. Xu, I. Cox +16

We measured the -delayed neutron emission from F for the first time at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB). Using combined neutron and -ray detector systems o…

Mass measurements of neutron-rich nuclides using the Canadian Penning Trap to inform predictions in the -process rare-earth peak region

D. Ray, N. Vassh, B. Liu +25

Studies aiming to determine the astrophysical origins of nuclei produced by the rapid neutron capture process ( process) rely on nuclear properties as inputs for simulations. Th…
