Wavelet signatures of -splitting of the Isoscalar Giant Quadrupole Resonance in deformed nuclei from high-resolution (p,p) scattering off Nd
C. O. Kureba, Z. Buthelezi, J. Carter +22
The phenomenon of fine structure of the Isoscalar Giant Quadrupole Resonance (ISGQR) has been studied with high energy-resolution proton inelastic scattering at iThemba LABS in the…
Novel technique to extract experimental symmetry free energy information of nuclear matter
J. Mabiala, H. Zheng, A. Bonasera +9
A new method of accessing information on the symmetry free energy from yields of fragments produced in Fermi-energy heavy-ion collisions is proposed. Furthermore, by means of quant…
Using Light Charged Particles to Probe the Asymmetry Dependence of the Nuclear Caloric Curve
Alan B. McIntosh, Aldo Bonasera, Zachary Kohley +11
Recently, we observed a clear dependence of the nuclear caloric curve on neutron-proton asymmetry through examination of fully reconstructed equilibrated quasi-proj…
Systematic study of symmetry energy within the SMM picture of multifragmentation
P. Marini, A. Bonasera, G. A. Souliotis +10
A systematic study on the effect of secondary decay on the symmetry energy coefficient extracted by isoscaling and the recently proposed isobaric yield ratio methods within the Sta…
Experimental determination of the quasi-projectile mass with measured neutrons
P. Marini, A. Zarrella, A. Bonasera +10
The investigation of the isospin dependence of multifragmentation reactions relies on precise reconstruction of the fragmenting source. The criteria used to assign free emitted neu…
Asymmetry Dependence of the Nuclear Caloric Curve
Alan B. McIntosh, Aldo Bonasera, Paul Cammarata +11
A basic feature of the nuclear equation of state is not yet understood: the dependence of the nuclear caloric curve on the neutron-proton asymmetry. Predictions of theoretical mode…
Critical Scaling of Two-component Systems from Quantum Fluctuations
J. Mabiala, A. Bonasera, H. Zheng +9
The thermodynamics of excited nuclear systems allows one to explore the second-order phase transition in a two-component quantum mixture. Temperatures and densities are derived fro…
No evidence of an 11.16 MeV 2+ state in 12C
F. D. Smit, F. Nemulodi, Z. Buthelezi +15
An experiment using the 11B(3He,d)12C reaction was performed at iThemba LABS at an incident energy of 44 MeV and analyzed with a high energy-resolution magnetic spectrometer, to re…
