TeV and Multi-wavelength Observations of Mrk 421 in 2006-2008
V. A. Acciari, E. Aliu, T. Arlen +103
We report on TeV gamma-ray observations of the blazar Mrk 421 (redshift of 0.031) with the VERITAS observatory and the Whipple 10m Cherenkov telescope. The excellent sensitivity of…
Half-lives and branchings for β-delayed neutron emission for neutron-rich Co-Cu isotopes in the r-process
P. Hosmer, H. Schatz, A. Aprahamian +23
The β decays of very neutron-rich nuclides in the Co-Zn region were studied experimentally at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory using the NSCL β-counting station in…
The neutron long counter NERO for studies of beta-delayed neutron emission in the r-process
J. Pereira, P. Hosmer, G. Lorusso +23
The neutron long counter NERO was built at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory (NSCL), Michigan State University, for measuring beta-delayed neutron-emission probabil…
Half Life of the Doubly-magic r-Process Nucleus 78Ni
P. T. Hosmer, H. Schatz, A. Aprahamian +19
Nuclei with magic numbers serve as important benchmarks in nuclear theory. In addition, neutron-rich nuclei play an important role in the astrophysical rapid neutron-capture proces…
Nuclear shell effects near the r-process path
M. M. Sharma, A. R. Farhan
We have studied the evolution of the shell structure of nuclei near the neutron drip line in the Relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov (RHB) theory with the vector self-coupling of omega…
Galactic populations of radio and gamma-ray pulsars in the polar cap model
Peter L. Gonthier, Michelle S. Ouellette, Joel Berrier +2
We simulate the characteristics of the Galactic population of radio and -ray pulsars using Monte Carlo techniques. At birth, neutron stars are spatially distributed in the Galac…
The endpoint of the rp process on accreting neutron stars
H. Schatz, A. Aprahamian, V. Barnard +6
We calculate the rapid proton (rp) capture process of hydrogen burning on the surface of an accreting neutron star with an updated reaction network that extends up to Xe, far beyon…
