Exploration for Astromers near Sn with the Canadian Penning Trap
A. A. Valverde, S. Cupp, A. Gross +26
Nuclear isomers can have significant impacts on astrophysical nucleosynthesis processes, with recent efforts demonstrating that the population of isomeric states with different hal…
Offline Commissioning of the St. Benedict Gas Catcher
F. Rivero, D. Guillet, M. Brodeur +11
Precision measurements of decay transitions offer a promising channel through which the Standard Model (SM) can be probed. There is currently an ongoing effort to increase the…
The N=126 Factory: A New Multi-Nucleon Transfer Reaction Facility
A. A. Valverde, M. S. Martin, W. S. Porter +23
Multi-nucleon transfer (MNT) reactions between two heavy ions offer an effective method of producing heavy, neutron-rich nuclei that cannot currently be accessed efficiently using…
Off-line Commissioning of the St. Benedict Radio Frequency Quadrupole Ion Guide
R. Zite, M. Brodeur, O. Bruce +4
The Superallowed Transition Beta-Neutrino Decay Ion Coincidence Trap (St. Benedict) is currently under construction at the Nuclear Science Laboratory (NSL) of the University of Not…
Precise Mass Measurement of the La-Ce-Pr isobaric chain
B. Liu, M. Brodeur, J. A. Clark +13
Penning trap mass measurements of La, Ce, and Pr were performed with the Canadian Penning Trap (CPT) at the CARIBU facility of Argonne National Laboratory u…
Off-line Commissioning of the St. Benedict Radiofrequency Quadrupole Cooler-Buncher
D. P. Burdette, R. Zite, M. Brodeur +20
The St. Benedict ion trapping system, which aims to measure the angular correlation parameter in superallowed-mixed mirror transitions, is under construction at the Univers…
