Beta-decay Half Lives beyond Ca: A Systematic Survey of Decay Properties approaching the Neutron Dripline

W. -J. Ong, Z. Y. Xu, R. Grzywacz +83

In an experiment performed at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) using the FRIB Decay Station initiator (FDSi), 15 new half lives of isotopes near Ca were measured.…

Study of the Ar()K reaction rate via proton scattering on K, and its impact on properties of modeled X-Ray bursts

A. Lauer-Coles, C. M. Deibel, J. C. Blackmon +21

Background: Type I X-Ray bursts (XRBs) are energetic stellar explosions that occur on the surface of a neutron star in an accreting binary system with a low-mass H/He-rich companio…

First direct measurement constraining the Ar(,p)K reaction cross section for mixed hydrogen and helium burning in accreting neutron stars

J. Browne, K. A. Chipps, K. Schmidt +25

The rate of the final step in the astrophysical p-process, the Ar(,\textit{p})K reaction, suffers from large uncertainties due to lack of experimental data, des…
