Probabilistic Foundations of Statistical Mechanics: A Bayesian Approach
B. Buck, A. C. Merchant
We examine the fundamental aspects of statistical mechanics, dividing the problem into a discussion purely about probability, which we analyse from a Bayesian standpoint. We argue…
Correlations in nuclear energy recurrence relations
B. Buck, A. C. Merchant, S. M. Perez
The excitation energies of states belonging to the ground state bands of heavy even-even nuclei are analysed using recurrence relations. Excellent agreement with experimental data…
Local Potential Model of the Hoyle Band in 12C
B. Buck, A. C. Merchant, S. M. Perez
We describe the excited 0+ state of 12C at 7.654 MeV, often called the Hoyle state, in terms of a local potential 8Be+alpha cluster model. We use a previously published prescriptio…
Electromagnetic Transition Strengths in Heavy Nuclei
B. Buck, A. C. Merchant, S. M. Perez
We calculate reduced B(E2) and B(M1) electromagnetic transition strengths within and between K-bands in support of a recently proposed model for the structure of heavy nuclei. Prev…
