-decay Measurements Near the Island of Inversion to Quantify Cooling of Accreted Neutron Star Crusts

K. Hermansen, W. -J. Ong, H. Schatz +18

Understanding the thermal structure of the outer crust of accreting neutron stars is important to interpret astronomical X-ray observations. Ground-state to ground-state -decay…

Machine-Learning-Enabled Measurements of Astrophysical (p,n) Reactions with the SECAR Recoil Separator

P. Tsintari, N. Dimitrakopoulos, R. Garg +29

The synthesis of heavy elements in supernovae is affected by low-energy (n,p) and (p,n) reactions on unstable nuclei, yet experimental data on such reaction rates are scarce. The S…

Impact of Pycnonuclear Fusion Uncertainties on the Cooling of Accreting Neutron Star Crusts

R. Jain, E. F. Brown, H. Schatz +11

The observation of X-rays during quiescence from transiently accreting neutron stars provides unique clues about the nature of dense matter. This, however, requires extensive model…

Evidence of a near-threshold resonance in B relevant to the -delayed proton emission of Be

Y. Ayyad, W. Mittig, T. Tang +27

A narrow near-threshold proton-emitting resonance (Ex = 11.4 MeV, J = 1/2 and = 4.4 keV) was directly observed in B via proton resonance scattering. This r…

Zn -delayed proton emission establishes the Ni -process waiting point bypass

M. Saxena, W. -J Ong, Z. Meisel +32

We measured the Zn -delayed proton (p) and emission at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory. We find a Zn half-life of 43.6 0.2 ms, p…
