Mass Measurement on the rp-Process Waiting Point 72Kr

2004

The mass of one of the three major waiting points in the astrophysical rp process $^{72}$Kr was measured for the first time with the Penning trap mass spectrometer ISOLTRAP. The measurement yielded a relative mass uncertainty of $\deltam/m = 1.2\times 10–7 (\deltam$ = 8 keV). $^{73,74}$Kr, also needed for astrophysical calculations, were measured with more than 1 order of magnitude improved accuracy. We use the ISOLTRAP masses of $^{72–74}$Kr to reanalyze the role of $^{72}$Kr (T$_{1/2}$ = 17.2 s) in the rp process during x-ray bursts and conclude that $^{72}$Kr is a strong waiting point delaying the burst duration with at least 80\% of its $\beta$-decay half-life.

Beam test of the ATLAS silicon detector modules

1998

Abstract Results are reported from a beam test of prototype silicon microstrip detectors and front-end electronics developed for use in the LHC detector ATLAS. The detector assemblies (“modules”) were 12 cm long and were read out with binary electronics. Both irradiated and unirradiated modules were measured in a 1.56 T magnetic field for efficiency, noise occupancy, and position resolution as a function of bias voltage, binary hit threshold, and detector rotation angle with respect to the beam direction.

Spins and magnetic moments ofMn58,60,62,64ground states and isomers

2015

The odd-odd $^{54,56,58,60,62,64}\mathrm{Mn}$ isotopes ($Z=25$) were studied using bunched-beam collinear laser spectroscopy at ISOLDE, CERN. From the measured hyperfine spectra the spins and magnetic moments of Mn isotopes up to $N=39$ were extracted. The previous tentative ground state spin assignments of $^{58,60,62,64}\mathrm{Mn}$ are now firmly determined to be $I=1$ along with an $I=4$ assignment for the isomeric states in $^{58,60,62}\mathrm{Mn}$. The $I=1$ magnetic moments show a decreasing trend with increasing neutron number while the $I=4$ moments remain quite constant between $N=33$ and $N=37$. The results are compared to large-scale shell-model calculations using the GXPF1A and…

Laser spectroscopy investigation of the nuclear moments and radii of lutetium isotopes

1998

Collinear laser spectroscopy experiments in the LuI transition $5d6s\!^{2} \; ^{2}\!D_{3/2} \rightarrow 5d6s6p \; ^{2}\!D_{3/2}$ were performed on all lutetium isotopes in the range of $^{161-179}$Lu. The nuclear spins, magnetic moments and quadrupole moments were determined from the hyperfine structures observed for 19 ground states and 11 isomers. Variations in the mean square charge radii as a function of neutron number were obtained from the isotope shifts. These data considerably extend the systematics of the properties of nuclei in the upper rare-earth region. A particular feature is the appearance of high-spin and low-spin ground states and isomeric states in the vicinity of the stab…

Evidence of quasifission in the 180Hg composite system formed in the 68Zn + 112Sn reaction

2021

Abstract For the 68Zn + 112Sn reaction the Coulomb parameter Z 1 Z 2 is equal to 1500 that is close to the threshold value for the appearance of quasifission process. It was found that mass-energy distributions of the reaction fragments differ significantly from those obtained in the 36Ar + 144Sm reaction leading to the formation of the same composite system of 180Hg at similar excitation energies of about 50 MeV. In the case of the reaction with 68Zn ions, the mass distribution of fissionlike fragments has a wide two-humped shape with maximum yields at 70 and 110 u for the light and heavy fragments, respectively, instead of 80 and 100 u observed in the fission of 180Hg formed in the 36Ar +…

Signature of an h1 state in the J/ψ→ηh1→ηK⁎0K¯⁎0 decay

2014

The BES data on the J/psi -> eta K*(0)(K) over bar*(0) reaction show a clear enhancement in the K*(0)(K) over bar*(0) mass distribution close to the threshold of this channel. Such an enhancement is usually a signature of an L = 0 resonance around threshold, which in this case would correspond to an h1 state with quantum numbers I-G(J(Pc))= 0(-)(1(+-)). A state around 1800 MeV results from the interaction of the K*TC* using the local hidden gauge approach. We show that the peak observed in J/psi -> eta K*(0)(K) over bar*(0) naturally comes from the creation of this h(1) state with mass and width around 1830 MeV and 110 MeV, respectively. A second analysis, model independent, corroborates th…

Kπ=8−isomers andKπ=2−octupole vibrations inN=150shell-stabilized isotones

2008

Isomers have been populated in {sup 246}Cm and {sup 252}No with quantum numbers K{sup {pi}}=8{sup -}, which decay through K{sup {pi}}=2{sup -} rotational bands built on octupole vibrational states. For N=150 isotones with (even) atomic number Z=94-102, the K{sup {pi}}=8{sup -} and 2{sup -} states have remarkably stable energies, indicating neutron excitations. An exception is a singular minimum in the 2{sup -} energy at Z=98, due to the additional role of proton configurations. The nearly constant energies, in isotones spanning an 18% increase in Coulomb energy near the Coulomb limit, provide a test for theory. The two-quasiparticle K{sup {pi}}=8{sup -} energies are described with single-pa…

The χ decay to ϕK⁎K¯,ϕh1(1380) testing the nature of axial vector meson resonances

2019

Abstract We perform a theoretical study of the χ c J → ϕ K ⁎ K ¯ → ϕ K π K ¯ reaction taking into account the K ⁎ K ¯ final state interaction, which in the chiral unitary approach is responsible, together with its coupled channels, for the formation of the low lying axial vector mesons, in this case the h 1 ( 1380 ) given the selection of quantum numbers. Based on this picture we can easily explain why in the χ c 0 decay the h 1 ( 1380 ) resonance is not produced, and, in the case of χ c 1 and χ c 2 decay, why a dip in the K + π 0 K − mass distribution appears in the 1550-1600 MeV region, that in our picture comes from a destructive interference between the tree level mechanism and the resc…

Nuclear charge radii of the tin isotopes from muonic atoms.

1990

The muonic atom 2${\mathit{p}}_{1/2}$-1${\mathit{s}}_{1/2}$ and 2${\mathit{p}}_{3/2}$-1${\mathit{s}}_{1/2}$ transition energies were measured with an experimental accuracy of better than 20 ppm for the isotope chain $^{112,114,116,117,118,119,120,122,124}\mathrm{Sn}$. Precise values for the Barrett equivalent nuclear radii ${\mathit{R}}_{\mathit{k}\mathrm{\ensuremath{\alpha}}}$ and their differences as well as root-mean-square radii were deduced. The \ensuremath{\Delta}N=2 isotope shifts between the even Sn isotopes show a subshell effect at the neutron number N=64. Otherwise, there is a nearly linear decrease with increasing N, in accordance with the general systematics of nuclear charge r…

Effects of aNcc¯*resonance with hidden charm in theπ−p→D−Σc+reaction near threshold

2015

We study the effect of a hidden charm nuclear excited state ${N}_{c\overline{c}}^{*}$ in the ${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}p\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{D}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Sigma}}}_{c}^{+}$ reaction near threshold using an effective Lagrangian approach. We calculate the background contribution of the $t$ and $u$ channels by the ${D}^{*0}$ vector meson exchange and ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Sigma}}}_{c}^{++}$ intermediate state, respectively. We show that the consideration of a ${N}_{c\overline{c}}^{*}$ resonance provides an enhancement of the total cross section close to the reaction threshold. We also evaluate the differential cross section for different energies and w…
