C inelastic excitation: A single-particle versus a collective process
C. Beckman, M. Catacora-Rios, C. Hebborn +1
Background: The excitation of one-neutron halo nucleus C from the ground state to the first excited state was measured at Argonne National Laboratory by impi…
Systematic study of the validity of the eikonal model including uncertainties
Daniel Shiu, Chloë Hebborn, Filomena M. Nunes
Nuclear reactions at intermediate beam energies are often interpreted using the eikonal model. In the analysis of complex reaction probes, where few-body reaction methods are neede…
Systematic study of the propagation of uncertainties to transfer observables
Chloë Hebborn, Filomena M. Nunes
A systematic study of parametric uncertainties in transfer reactions is performed using the recently developed uncertainty quantified global optical potential (KDUQ). We consider r…
First experimental test of the ratio method for nuclear-reaction analysis
S. Ota, P. Capel, G. Christian +9
Nuclear halos are very exotic quantal structures observed far from stability. Because of their short lifetime, they are mostly studied through reactions. The ratio method offers a…
Uncertainty quantification in reactions
A. J. Smith, C. Hebborn, F. M. Nunes +1
Charge-exchange reactions are versatile probes for nuclear structure. In particular, when populating isobaric analog states, these reactions are used to study isovector nuclear den…
The role of the likelihood for elastic scattering uncertainty quantification
C. D. Pruitt, A. E. Lovell, C. Hebborn +1
Background: Analyses of elastic scattering with the optical model (OMP) are widely used in nuclear reactions. Purpose: Previous work compared a traditional frequentist approach and…
