Number of Particles in Fission Fragments
Marc Verriere, Nicolas Schunck, Toshihiko Kawano
In current simulations of fission, the number of protons and neutrons in a given fission fragment is almost always obtained by integrating the total density of particles in the sec…
Actinide Production in Neutron-Rich Ejecta of a Neutron Star Merger
Erika M. Holmbeck, Rebecca Surman, Trevor M. Sprouse +4
The rapid-neutron-capture ("r") process is responsible for synthesizing many of the heavy elements observed in both the solar system and Galactic metal-poor halo stars. Simulations…
Californium-254 and kilonova light curves
Y. Zhu, R. T. Wollaeger, N. Vassh +13
Neutron star mergers offer unique conditions for the creation of the heavy elements and additionally provide a testbed for our understanding of this synthesis known as the -proc…
Excitation functions for (p,x) reactions of niobium in the energy range of E = 40-90 MeV
Andrew S. Voyles, Lee A. Bernstein, Eva R. Birnbaum +5
A stack of thin Nb foils was irradiated with the 100 MeV proton beam at Los Alamos National Laboratory's Isotope Production Facility, to investigate the Nb(p,4n)Mo nu…
-delayed fission in -process nucleosynthesis
M. R. Mumpower, T. Kawano, T. M. Sprouse +4
We present -delayed neutron emission and -delayed fission calculations for heavy, neutron-rich nuclei using the coupled Quasi-Particle Random Phase Approximation plus Hauser-…
U(n, f) Independent Fission Product Yield and Isomeric Ratio Calculated with the Statistical Hauser-Feshbach Theory
Shin Okumura, Toshihiko Kawano, Patrick Talou +2
We have developed a Hauser-Feshbach fission fragment decay model, HFD, which can be applied to the statistical decay of more than 500 primary fission fragment pairs (1,000 nucl…
