M1 dipole strength from projected generator coordinate method calculations in the sd-shell valence space

Stavros Bofos, Jaime Martínez-Larraz, Benjamin Bally +4

The low-energy enhancement observed in the deexcitation -ray strength functions, attributed to magnetic dipole (M1) radiations, has spurred theoretical efforts to improve on its…

Nuclear Physics Confronts Relativistic Collisions Of Isobars

Giuliano Giacalone, Jiangyong Jia, Vittorio Somà +43

High-energy collisions involving the isobars Zr and Ru have been performed in 2018 at Brookhaven National Laboratory's Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) a…

Deformation from zinc to zirconium

Sidong Chen, Frank Browne, Tomás R. Rodríguez +1

Extensive gamma-ray spectroscopy of very neutron-rich nuclei of isotopes between the Ni and Sn isotopic chains was facilitated by the high luminosity LH2 target system, MINOS. Resu…

Multiple shape coexistence in the Mo nucleus

Tomás R. Rodríguez

The structure of the nucleus Mo has been studied using the projected generator coordinate method (PGCM) with the Gogny D1S interaction. The calculations incorporate a mixing…

Ab initio nuclear shape coexistence and emergence of island of inversion around

E. F. Zhou, C. R. Ding, J. M. Yao +4

We extend a nuclear ab initio framework based on chiral two- and three-nucleon interactions to investigate shape coexistence and the degradation of the magic number in both…

Anisotropic flow in fixed-target Pb+Ne collisions as a probe of quark-gluon plasma

Giuliano Giacalone, Wenbin Zhao, Benjamin Bally +19

The System for Measuring Overlap with Gas (SMOG2) at the LHCb detector enables the study of fixed-target ion-ion collisions at relativistic energies ( GeV…

Shell-model study of Si: coexistence of oblate, prolate and superdeformed shapes

Dorian Frycz, Javier Menéndez, Arnau Rios +3

We study the shape coexistence in the nucleus Si with the nuclear shell model using numerical diagonalizations complemented with variational calculations based on the projec…

The unexpected uses of a bowling pin: exploiting Ne isotopes for precision characterizations of collectivity in small systems

Giuliano Giacalone, Benjamin Bally, Govert Nijs +16

Whether or not femto-scale droplets of quark-gluon plasma (QGP) are formed in so-called small systems at high-energy colliders is a pressing question in the phenomenology of the st…

Optimization of generator coordinate method with machine-learning techniques for nuclear spectra and neutrinoless double-beta decay: ridge regression for nuclei with axial deformation

X. Zhang, W. Lin, J. M. Yao +4

The generator coordinate method (GCM) is an important tool of choice for modeling large-amplitude collective motion in atomic nuclei. The computational complexity of the GCM increa…
