Ar Production and Injection to a Liquid Argon Environment for Background Mitigation Studies
Mario Schwarz, Christoph Vogl, Niko N. P. N. Lay +6
Atmosphere-sourced argon contains traces of Ar, whose -decaying progeny K represents a significant intrinsic background for rare-event experiments using liquid a…
Shape Coexistence at Zero Spin in 64Ni Driven by the Monopole Tensor Interaction
N. Mărginean, D. Little, Y. Tsunoda +75
The low-spin structure of the semimagic 64Ni nucleus has been considerably expanded: combining four experiments, several 0+ and 2+ excited states were identified below 4.5 MeV, and…
Near-Earth Supernova Explosions: Evidence, Implications, and Opportunities
Brian D. Fields, John R. Ellis, Walter R. Binns +36
There is now solid experimental evidence of at least one supernova explosion within 100 pc of Earth within the last few million years, from measurements of the short-lived isotope…
Time resolved 2 million year old supernova activity discovered in Earth's microfossil record
Peter Ludwig, Shawn Bishop, Ramon Egli +11
Massive stars, which terminate their evolution as core collapse supernovae, are theoretically predicted to eject more than 1E-5 solar masses of the radioisotope 60Fe. If such an ev…
Measurement of the stellar NiNi cross section with AMS
Peter Ludwig, Georg Rugel, Iris Dillmann +10
The NiNi cross section was measured with a combination of the activation technique and accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS). The neutron activations were performe…
Mass extinctions and supernova explosions
Gunther Korschinek
A nearby supernova (SN) explosion could have negatively influenced life on Earth, maybe even been responsible for mass extinctions. Mass extinction poses a significant extinction o…
