BlueSTEAl: A pair of silicon arrays and a zero-degree phoswich detector for studies of scattering and reactions in inverse kinematics

Shuya Ota, Greg Christian, Ben J. Reed +7

BlueSTEAl, the Blue (aluminum chamber of) Silicon TElescope Arrays for light nuclei,has been developed to study direct reactions in inverse kinematics, as well as scattering and br…

Study of ( $^{6}$ Li, $d$ ) and ( $^{6}$ Li, $t$ ) reactions on $^{22}$ Ne and implications for $s$ -process nucleosynthesis

S. Ota, G. Christian, W. N. Catford +20

We studied $α$ cluster states in $^{26}$ Mg via the $^{22}$ Ne( $^{6}$ Li, $d γ$ ) $^{26}$ Mg reaction in inverse kinematics at an energy of $7$ MeV/nucleon. States between $E_{x}$ = 4 - 12 M…

Constraining the $^{22}$ Ne( $α$ , $γ$ ) $^{26}$ Mg and $^{22}$ Ne( $α$ ,n) $^{25}$ Mg reaction rates using sub-Coulomb $α$ -transfer reactions

H. Jayatissa, G. V. Rogachev, V. Z. Goldberg +9

The $^{22}$ Ne( $α$ , $γ$ ) $^{26}$ Mg and $^{22}$ Ne( $α$ ,n) $^{25}$ Mg reactions play an important role in astrophysics because they have significant influence on the neutron flux during th…

Decay properties of $^{22} Ne + α$ resonances and their impact on $s$ -process nucleosynthesis

S. Ota, G. Christian, G. Lotay +15

The astrophysical $s$ -process is one of the two main processes forming elements heavier than iron. A key outstanding uncertainty surrounding $s$ -process nucleosynthesis is the neut…

Determining the average prompt-fission-neutron multiplicity for $^{239}$ Pu( $n$ , $f$ ) via a $^{240}$ Pu( $α$ , $α^{'} f$ ) surrogate reaction

B. S. Wang, J. T. Burke, O. A. Akindele +7

The average prompt-fission-neutron multiplicity $ν ˉ$ is of significance in the areas of nuclear theory, nuclear nonproliferation, and nuclear energy. In this work, the surrogate…

Nuclear level densities and gamma-ray strength functions in samarium isotopes

F. Naqvi, A. Simon, M. Guttormsen +8

The gamma-strength functions and level densities in the quasi-continuum of 147;149Sm isotopes have been extracted from particle-coincidences using the Oslo method. The nuclei of in…
