Measuring O(p,n)F reactions using an active target detector

Rohit Kumar, H. Desilets, R. T. deSouza

Proton capture on O nuclei is measured in inverse kinematics with the active target detector MuSIC@Indiana using CH as the target gas. Rejection of unreacted and inel…

The nucleardatapy toolkit for simple access to experimental nuclear data, astrophysical observations, and theoretical predictions

Jérôme Margueron, Christian Drischler, Mariana Dutra +10

Systematic comparisons across theoretical predictions for the properties of dense matter, nuclear physics data, and astrophysical observations (also called meta-analyses) are perfo…

Observation of oscillations and near-barrier suppression in the fusion of O + p

H. Desilets, Rohit Kumar, R. T. deSouza +8

Using an active target detector, the fusion excitation function for O + H was measured for the first time. Near the barrier, the fusion cross section manifests an oscill…

Mean free path of photons in relativistic heavy ion collisions

Jajati K. Nayak, Rupa Chatterjee

Electromagnetic probes, such as photons and dileptons, play a key role in diagnosing the initial temperature of the hot and dense quark-gluon plasma (QGP) matter created in relativ…

Resonant suppression of the above-barrier fusion cross-section in O + C

H. Desilets, Rohit Kumar, R. T. deSouza +8

Fusion excitation functions for O and F + C were simultaneously measured along with O + C using the active-target detector MuSIC@Indiana. Examina…

Deconstructing the emission order of protons, neutrons and -particles following fusion in Si + Si

Rohit Kumar, H. Desilets, J. E. Johnstone +12

A high-quality measurement of proton and -particle emission associated with fusion of Si with a Si target is described. Evaporation residues produced by de-…
