Zn -delayed proton emission establishes the Ni -process waiting point bypass
M. Saxena, W. -J Ong, Z. Meisel +32
We measured the Zn -delayed proton (p) and emission at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory. We find a Zn half-life of 43.6 0.2 ms, p…
The Status and Future of Direct Nuclear Reaction Measurements for Stellar Burning
M. Aliotta, R. Buompane, M. Couder +22
The study of stellar burning began just over 100 years ago. Nonetheless, we do not yet have a detailed picture of the nucleosynthesis within stars and how nucleosynthesis impacts s…
First direct measurement of Cu(p,)Ni: A step towards constraining the Ni-Cu cycle in the Cosmos
J. S. Randhawa, R. Kanungo, J. Refsgaard +34
Reactions on the proton-rich nuclides drive the nucleosynthesis in Core-Collapse Supernovae (CCSNe) and in X-ray bursts (XRBs). CCSNe eject the nucleosynthesis products to the inte…
-decay of V and its Role in Cooling Accreted Neutron Star Crusts
W. -J. Ong, E. F. Brown, J. Browne +20
The interpretation of observations of cooling neutron star crusts in quasi-persistent X-ray transients is affected by predictions of the strength of neutrino cooling via crust Urca…
Determination of the Zn level density from neutron evaporation spectra
D. Soltesz, M. A. A. Mamun, A. V. Voinov +9
Nuclear reactions of interest for astrophysics and applications often rely on statistical model calculations for nuclear reaction rates, particularly for nuclei far from -stabil…
Nuclear Mass Measurements Map the Structure of Atomic Nuclei and Accreting Neutron Stars
Z. Meisel, S. George, S. Ahn +28
We present mass excesses (ME) of neutron-rich isotopes of Ar through Fe, obtained via TOF- mass spectrometry at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory. Our new resul…
