Present status and first results of the final focus beam line at the KEK Accelerator Test Facility
2011
ATF2 is a final-focus test beam line which aims to focus the low emittance beam from the ATF damping ring to a vertical size of about 37 nm and to demonstrate nanometer level beam stability. Several advanced beam diagnostics and feedback tools are used. In December 2008, construction and installation were completed and beam commissioning started, supported by an international team of Asian, European, and U.S. scientists. The present status and first results are described.
New constraints on the Al25(p,γ) reaction and its influence on the flux of cosmic γ rays from classical nova explosions
2021
The astrophysical $^{25}\mathrm{Al}(p,\ensuremath{\gamma})\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}^{26}\mathrm{Si}$ reaction represents one of the key remaining uncertainties in accurately modeling the abundance of radiogenic $^{26}\mathrm{Al}$ ejected from classical novae. Specifically, the strengths of key proton-unbound resonances in $^{26}\mathrm{Si}$, that govern the rate of the $^{25}\mathrm{Al}(p,\ensuremath{\gamma})$ reaction under explosive astrophysical conditions, remain unsettled. Here, we present a detailed spectroscopy study of the $^{26}\mathrm{Si}$ mirror nucleus $^{26}\mathrm{Mg}$. We have measured the lifetime of the ${3}^{+}$, 6.125-MeV state in $^{26}\mathrm{Mg}$ to be $19(3)\phanto…

The astrophysical 25Al(p,γ)26Si reaction represents one of the key remaining uncertainties in accurately modeling the abundance of radiogenic 26Al ejected from classical novae. Specifically, the strengths of key proton-unbound resonances in 26Si, that govern the rate of the 25Al(p,γ) reaction under explosive astrophysical conditions, remain unsettled. Here, we present a detailed spectroscopy study of the 26Si mirror nucleus 26Mg. We have measured the lifetime of the 3+, 6.125-MeV state in 26Mg to be 19(3)fs and provide compelling evidence for the existence of a 1− state in the T=1,A=26 system, indicating a previously unaccounted for ℓ=1 resonance in the 25Al(p,γ) reaction. Using the present…
