Precision masses of neutron-rich platinum and gold nuclei reveal enhanced shell strength below doubly-magic Pb
David Freire-Fernández, Rui-Jiu Chen, Usama Ahmed +63
The heaviest stable nuclei in the universe owe their existence to quantum shell structure, the grouping of protons and neutrons into discrete energy levels separated by gaps. The l…
Half-life determination of heavy ions in a storage ring considering feeding and depleting background processes
R. J. Chen, G. Leckenby, R. S. Sidhu +49
Heavy-ion storage rings have relatively large momentum acceptance which allows for multiple ion species to circulate at the same time. This needs to be considered in radioactive de…
Bayesian and Monte Carlo approaches to estimating uncertainty for the measurement of the bound-state decay of
G. Leckenby, M. Trassinelli, R. J. Chen +47
The measurement of the bound-state decay of at the Experimental Storage Ring at GSI, Darmstadt, has recently been reported with substantial impact on…
Bound-State Beta Decay of Ions and the LOREX Project
R. S. Sidhu, G. Leckenby, R. J. Chen +55
Stable Tl ions have the lowest known energy threshold for capturing electron neutrinos () of \,keV. The Lorandite Experiment (LOREX), proposed in th…
High-temperature Tl decay clarifies Pb dating in early Solar System
G. Leckenby, R. S. Sidhu, R. J. Chen +56
Radioactive nuclei with lifetimes on the order of millions of years can reveal the formation history of the Sun and active nucleosynthesis occurring at the time and place of its bi…
Measurement of the Isolated Nuclear Two-Photon Decay in
D. Freire-Fernández, W. Korten, R. J. Chen +57
The nuclear two-photon or double-gamma () decay is a second-order electromagnetic process whereby a nucleus in an excited state emits two gamma rays simultaneously. To be able…
