Constraining capture cross sections using proton inelastic scattering as a surrogate reaction
Aaina Thapa, Jutta Escher, Emanuel Chimanski +6
The surrogate reaction method is an alternative to direct measurements of compound nuclear reaction cross sections. We introduce theory tools for extracting capture cross sections…
Uncovering the nature of low-lying dipole states with QRPA calculations: is Z=42 the answer?
Eun Jin In, Emanuel Chimanski, Jutta Escher +3
The pygmy dipole resonance (PDR), marked by enhanced electric dipole strength near particle emission energies, offers a unique perspective on the collective dynamics of nuclear str…
Electric dipole excitations near the neutron separation energies in Mo
Eun Jin In, Emanuel Chimanski, Jutta Escher +3
Electric dipole strength near the neutron separation energy significantly impacts nuclear structure properties and astrophysical scenarios. These excitations are complex in nature…
Predicting nucleon-nucleus scattering observables using nuclear structure theory
Aaina Thapa, Jutta Escher, Emanuel Chimanski +3
Developing a predictive capability for inelastic scattering will find applications in multiple areas. Experimental data for neutron-nucleus inelastic scattering is limited and thus…
