Direct transfer to K as a survey of the interaction
C. J. Paxman, A. Matta, W. N. Catford +76
The collapse of the canonical magic number in nuclei with has drawn significant interest as it relates to the emergence of an island of inversion centered on S…
Unbound neutron strength in C and the N=16 shell gap
J. Lois-Fuentes, B. Fernández-Domínguez, F. Delaunay +61
Significant continuum strength has been observed to be populated in C produced in the d(C,p) reaction at a beam energy of 17.2~MeV/nucleon. The strength appears at gr…
Structure Studies of from the Be(d,p) reaction in inverse kinematics on a solid deuteron target
J. Kovoor, K. L. Jones, J. Hooker +42
The low-lying structure of Be has remained an enigma for decades. Despite numerous experimental and theoretical studies, large inconsistencies remain. Being both unbound, an…
Cross-shell states in C: a test for p-sd interactions
J. Lois-Fuentes, B. Fernández-Domínguez, X. Pereira-López +59
The low-lying structure of C has been investigated via the neutron-removal C reaction. Along with bound neutron sd-shell hole states, unbound p-shell hole stat…
Single neutron transfer on 23Ne and its relevance forthepathway ofnucleosynthesis in astrophysical X-ray bursts
G. Lotay, J. Henderson, W. N. Catford +32
We present new experimental measurements of resonance strengths in the astrophysical 23Al(p, γ)24Si reaction, constraining the pathway of nucleosynthesis beyond 22Mg in X-ray burst…
Study of (Li, ) and (Li, ) reactions on Ne and implications for -process nucleosynthesis
S. Ota, G. Christian, W. N. Catford +20
We studied cluster states in Mg via the Ne(Li,)Mg reaction in inverse kinematics at an energy of MeV/nucleon. States between = 4 - 12 M…
Neutron-proton pairing in the N=Z radioactive fp-shell nuclei 56Ni and 52Fe probed by pair transfer
B. Le Crom, M. Assié, Y. Blumenfeld +49
The isovector and isoscalar components of neutron-proton pairing are investigated in the N=Z unstable nuclei of the \textit{fp}-shell through the two-nucleon transfer reaction (p,$…
Low-lying single-particle structure of 17C and the N = 14 sub-shell closure
X. Pereira-López, B. Fernández-Domínguez, F. Delaunay +58
The first investigation of the single-particle structure of the bound states of 17C, via the d(16C, p) transfer reaction, has been undertaken. The measured angular distributions co…
Single-particle structure in neutron-rich Sr isotopes approaching the N = 60 shape transition
S. Cruz, K. Wimmer, S. S. Bhattacharjee +33
Background: Neutron-rich nuclei around neutron number N = 60 show a dramatic shape transition from spherical ground states to prolate deformation in 98Sr and heavier nuclei. Purpos…
Single-Particle Structure of Neutron-Rich Sr Isotopes Via d( 94,95,96 Sr, p) Reactions
S. Cruz, K. Wimmer, P. C. Bender +32
The region around neutron number N = 60 in the neutron-rich Sr and Zr nuclei is one of the most dramatic examples of a ground state shape transition from (near) spherical below N =…
Shell evolution approaching the N=20 island of inversion: structure of 26Na
G. L. Wilson, W. N. Catford, N. A. Orr +37
The levels in 26Na with single particle character have been observed for the first time using the d(25Na,p gamma) reaction at 5 MeV/nucleon. The measured excitation energies and th…
Nuclear astrophysics with radioactive ions at FAIR
R. Reifarth, S. Altstadt, K. Göbel +317
The nucleosynthesis of elements beyond iron is dominated by neutron captures in the s and r processes. However, 32 stable, proton-rich isotopes cannot be formed during those proces…
