Time Projection Chamber (TPC) Detectors for Nuclear Astrophysics Studies With Gamma Beams
M. Gai, D. Schweitzer, S. R. Stern +33
Gamma-Beams at the HIgS facility in the USA and anticipated at the ELI-NP facility, now constructed in Romania, present unique new opportunities to advance research in nuclear astr…
Compton Scattering from the Deuteron below Pion-Production Threshold
Luke Myers, John Annand, Jason Brudvik +13
Differential cross sections for elastic scattering of photons from the deuteron have recently been measured at the Tagged-Photon Facility at the MAX IV Laboratory in Lund, Sweden.…
New Measurement of Compton Scattering from the Deuteron and an Improved Extraction of the Neutron Electromagnetic Polarizabilities
L. S. Myers, J. R. M. Annand, J. Brudvik +15
The electromagnetic polarizabilities of the nucleon are fundamental properties that describe its response to external electric and magnetic fields. They can be extracted from Compt…
Compton scattering from 12C using tagged photons in the energy range 65 - 115 MeV
L. S. Myers, K. Shoniyozov, M. F. Preston +26
Elastic scattering of photons from 12C has been investigated using quasi-monoenergetic tagged photons with energies in the range 65 - 115 MeV at laboratory angles of 60 deg, 120 de…
Unambiguous Identification of the Second 2+ State in 12C and the Structure of the Hoyle State
W. R. Zimmerman, M. W. Ahmed, B. Bromberger +11
The second 2+ state of 12C, predicted over fifty years ago as an excitation of the Hoyle state, has been unambiguously identified using the 12C(g,a_0)8Be reaction. The alpha partic…
An Optical Readout TPC (O-TPC) for Studies in Nuclear Astrophysics With Gamma-Ray Beams at HIgS
M. Gai, M. W. Ahmed, S. C. Stave +15
We report on the construction, tests, calibrations and commissioning of an Optical Readout Time Projection Chamber (O-TPC) detector operating with a CO2(80%) + N2(20%) gas mixture…
