Neutron transfer reactions on the ground state and isomeric state of a 130Sn beam
K. L. Jones, A. Bey, S. Burcher +23
The structure of nuclei around the neutron-rich nucleus 132Sn is of particular interest due to the vicinity of the Z = 50 and N = 82 shell closures and the r-process nucleosyntheti…
New Experimentally Observable Gamma-ray Emissions from 241Am Nuclear Decay
Katrina E. Koehler, Michael D. Yoho, Matthew H. Carpenter +16
With the high resolution of microcalorimeter detectors, previously unresolvable gamma-ray lines are now clearly resolvable. A careful measurement of Am-241 decay with a large array…
-wave scattering lengths for the Be+p system from an -matrix analysis
S. N. Paneru, C. R. Brune, R. Giri +23
The astrophysical -factor for the radiative proton capture reaction on Be () at low energies is affected by the -wave scattering lengths. We report the measuremen…
Nuclear Data Needs and Capabilities for Applications
Lee Bernstein, David Brown, Aaron Hurst +6
The Workshop on Nuclear Data Needs and Capabilities for Applications (NDNCA) was held at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) on 27-29 May 2015. The goals of NDNCA were com…
Recent direct reaction experimental studies with radioactive tin beams
K. L. Jones, S. Ahn, J. M. Allmond +40
Direct reaction techniques are powerful tools to study the single-particle nature of nuclei. Performing direct reactions on short-lived nuclei requires radioactive ion beams produc…
Reactions of a Be-10 beam on proton and deuteron targets
K. T. Schmitt, K. L. Jones, S. Ahn +30
The extraction of detailed nuclear structure information from transfer reactions requires reliable, well-normalized data as well as optical potentials and a theoretical framework d…
Halo nucleus Be-11: A spectroscopic study via neutron transfer
K. T. Schmitt, K. L. Jones, A. Bey +29
The best examples of halo nuclei, exotic systems with a diffuse nuclear cloud surrounding a tightly-bound core, are found in the light, neutron-rich region, where the halo neutrons…
Unbound states of 32Cl and the 31S(p,γ)32Cl reaction rate
M. Matoš, J. C. Blackmon, L. E. Linhardt +6
The 31S(p,γ)32Cl reaction is expected to provide the dominant break-out path from the SiP cycle in novae and is important for understanding enrichments of sulfur observed in some n…
Direct reaction measurements with a 132Sn radioactive ion beam
K. L. Jones, A. S. Adekola, D. W. Bardayan +22
The (d,p) neutron transfer and (d,d) elastic scattering reactions were measured in inverse kinematics using a radioactive ion beam of 132Sn at 630 MeV. The elastic scattering data…
The magic nature of 132Sn explored through the single-particle states of 133Sn
K. L. Jones, A. S. Adekola, D. W. Bardayan +22
Atomic nuclei have a shell structure where nuclei with 'magic numbers' of neutrons and protons are analogous to the noble gases in atomic physics. Only ten nuclei with the standard…
New Constraints on the 18F(p,alpha) 15O Rate in Novae from the (d,p) Reaction
R. L. Kozub, D. W. Bardayan, J. C. Batchelder +18
The degree to which the (p,gamma) and (p,alpha) reactions destroy 18F at temperatures 1-4x10^8 K is important for understanding the synthesis of nuclei in nova explosions and for u…
The Single-Particle Structure of Neutron-Rich Nuclei of Astrophysical Interest at the Ornl Hribf
D. W. Bardayan, J. C. Batchelder, J. C. Blackmon +19
The rapid nuetron-capture process (r process) produces roughly half of the elements heavier than iron. The path and abundances produced are uncertain, however, because of the lack…
