Nuclear mass staggering explains missing stable technetium and promethium
Daiki Nishimura, Takumi Hasegawa, Rinku Prajapat
Technetium (Tc) and promethium (Pm) are the only elements that lack stable isotopes in the range up to bismuth, a long-standing puzzle in physics and chemistry. We treat this absen…

Deciphering the influence of neutron transfer in Si-based fusion reactions around the Coulomb barrier
Rinku Prajapat
Purpose: We aim to investigate the role of a few neutron transfer channels on the dynamics of fusion reactions around the Coulomb barrier by judicially selecting 11 different $^{28…
