Beta-decay Half Lives beyond Ca: A Systematic Survey of Decay Properties approaching the Neutron Dripline
W. -J. Ong, Z. Y. Xu, R. Grzywacz +83
In an experiment performed at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) using the FRIB Decay Station initiator (FDSi), 15 new half lives of isotopes near Ca were measured.…

Crust composition and the Shallow Heat Source in KS 1731-260
R. Jain, E. F. Brown, H. Schatz +11
The presence of a strong shallow heat source of unknown origin in accreting neutron star crusts has been inferred by analyzing X-ray observations of their cooling in quiescence. We…

Universal Effective Charges in the and Shells
T. H. Ogunbeku, J. M. Allmond, T. J. Gray +79
The 247-keV state in Sc, populated in the decay of Ca, is reported here as a nanosecond isomer with a half-life of 26.0(22) ns. The state is interpreted as the $…
