Low-energy enhancement in the magnetic dipole radiation of actinide nuclei
C. Rodgers, D. DeMartini, Y. Alhassid
We present the first theoretical results of the magnetic dipole (M1) -ray strength function (SF) for actinide nuclei within the shell-model Monte Carlo (SMMC) method. We obse…
Nuclear state and level densities of actinides with the shell-model Monte Carlo
D. DeMartini, Y. Alhassid
Actinides are of great interest in astrophysics and technology applications since they can fission. However, the microscopic calculation of their statistical properties in the pres…
Low-energy enhancement of the magnetic dipole radiation in odd-mass lanthanides
D. DeMartini, Y. Alhassid
We compute the magnetic dipole (M1) -ray strength functions (SF) for the odd-mass lanthanides Nd and Sm using the shell-model Monte Carlo method in co…
Magnetic dipole -ray strength functions in the crossover from spherical to deformed neodymium isotopes
A. Mercenne, P. Fanto, W. Ryssens +1
We calculate the magnetic dipole -ray strength functions in a chain of even-mass neodymium isotopes Nd in the framework of the configuration-interaction (CI) shell m…
Magnetic dipole -ray strength functions of heavy nuclei in the configuration-interaction shell model
Y. Alhassid, P. Fanto, A. Mercenne
A low-energy enhancement (LEE) has been observed in the deexcitation -ray strength function (SF) of compound nuclei. The LEE has been a subject of intense experimental and th…
