High precision proton angular distribution measurements of C(p,p') for determination of the decay branching ratio of the Hoyle state
K. J. Cook, A. Chevis, T. K. Eriksen +14
Background: In stars, carbon is produced exclusively via the process, where three particles fuse to form C in the excited Hoyle state, which can then decay to the g…
Determination of angular distributions from the high efficiency solenoidal separator SOLITAIRE
L. T. Bezzina, E. C. Simpson, D. J. Hinde +3
A novel fusion product separator, based on a gas-filled 8 T superconducting solenoid has been developed at the Australian National University. Though the transmission efficiency of…
Two-neutron knockout as a probe of the composition of states in Mg, Al, and Si
B. Longfellow, A. Gade, J. A. Tostevin +12
Simpson and Tostevin proposed that the width and shape of exclusive parallel momentum distributions of the A-2 residue in direct two-nucleon knockout reactions carry a measurable s…
Shell evolution approaching the N=20 island of inversion: Structure of 29Mg
A. Matta, W. N. Catford, N. A. Orr +36
The "Island of Inversion" for neutron-rich nuclei in the vicinity of N=20 has become the testing ground par excellence for our understanding and modelling of shell evolution with i…
Effect of Pauli repulsion and transfer on fusion
C. Simenel, K. Godbey, A. S. Umar +4
The effect of the Pauli exclusion principle on the nucleus-nucleus bare potential is studied using a new density-constrained extension of the Frozen-Hartree-Fock (DCFHF) technique.…
Isovector properties of the nuclear energy density functional from the quark-meson coupling model
E. McRae, C. Simenel, E. C. Simpson +1
Background: The Skyrme energy density functional is widely used in mean-field calculations of nuclear structure and dynamics. However, its reliance on phenomenology may compromise…
