Direct Measurement of the CuNi Excitation Function to Constrain the Ni--Cu Cycle Strength and Its Impact on Explosive Nucleosynthesis

E. Lopez-Saavedra, M. L. Avila, W. -J. Ong +21

A new direct measurement of the 59Cu(p,a)56Ni excitation function from 2.43-5.88 MeV in the center-of-mass was performed in inverse kinematics using the high-efficiency MUSIC activ…

A ground state Al halo is unlikely

E. A. M. Jensen, J. S. Nielsen, B. S. O. Johansson +13

We report the decisive resolution of the ground state spin and parity of the proton-dripline nucleus Al, a prime candidate for a proton halo. The resolution stems from the f…

Extension of the particle x-ray coincidence technique: The lifetimes and branching ratios apparatus

L. J. Sun, J. Dopfer, A. Adams +11

The particle x-ray coincidence technique (PXCT) was originally developed to measure average lifetimes in the ~s range for proton-unbound states populated by elec…

Object Detection with Deep Learning for Rare Event Search in the GADGET II TPC

Tyler Wheeler, S. Ravishankar, C. Wrede +50

In the pursuit of identifying rare two-particle events within the GADGET II Time Projection Chamber (TPC), this paper presents a comprehensive approach for leveraging Convolutional…
