Production cross-sections and neutron polarization in (p,n) reactions at 143 MeV
1963
Abstract Measurements have been made of the energy spectra and polarizations of neutrons emitted at a laboratory angle of 45° from deuterium, lithium and aluminium bombarded by protons of 143 MeV. The results are consistent with the view that neutron production from deuterium proceeds mainly by single quasi-free proton-neutron scattering but that multiple scattering effects predominate in heavier nuclei.
Neutron yields from thick 12C and 9Be targets irradiated by 50 and 65 MeV deuterons
2001
Abstract Absolute intensities, angular distributions and energy spectra of neutrons emitted from thick 12 C and 9 Be targets irradiated with 50 and 65 MeV deuterons, respectively, have been measured. The neutron spectra were measured by time-of-flight (TOF) technique. The detectors provided continuous coverage from 0° to 60° where a significant angular dependence of emitted neutrons was found. The yield of 0.109(10) neutrons/deuteron from the 9 Be target is a factor of two higher than that from the 12 C target, 0.056(6) neutrons/deuteron. The hardness parameters of the neutron spectra are calculated for the radiation damage studies of the silicon devices.
Model-independent fit to Planck and BICEP2 data
2014
Inflation is the leading theory to describe elegantly the initial conditions that led to structure formation in our universe. In this paper, we present a novel phenomenological fit to the Planck, WMAP polarisation (WP) and the BICEP2 datasets using an alternative parameterisation. Instead of starting from inflationary potentials and computing the inflationary observables, we use a phenomenological parameterisation due to Mukhanov, describing inflation by an effective equation-of-state, in terms of the number of e-folds and two phenomenological parameters $\alpha$ and $\beta$. Within such a parametrisation, which captures the different inflationary models in a model-independent way, the valu…
Circinus X-1 observed with BeppoSAX wide field cameras
1999
Abstract We present a sky image and spectra for various orbital phases of Circinus X-1 observed by B-SAX Wide Field Cameras. We suggest that the spectral shape is dependent on the orbital phase.
Discrete lineγ-ray spectroscopy in the(50–60)ħspin domain of161,162Er
2000
Very high spin states $(I=50--60\ensuremath{\Elzxh})$ have been observed in the transitional nuclei ${}^{161}\mathrm{Er}$ and ${}^{162}\mathrm{Er}$ using the Euroball $\ensuremath{\gamma}$-ray spectrometer. In ${}^{161}\mathrm{Er},$ three bands are observed well above spin $50\ensuremath{\Elzxh}.$ In the positive parity, positive signature $(+,+\frac{1}{2})$ band a discontinuity in the regular rotational behavior occurs at ${\frac{109}{2}}^{+}$ and a splitting into two branches occurs at ${\frac{97}{2}}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ in the negative parity, positive signature $(\ensuremath{-},+\frac{1}{2})$ band. The $(\ensuremath{-},\ensuremath{-}\frac{1}{2})$ band continues in a regular fashion to ${\…
Non-standard interactions with high-energy atmospheric neutrinos at IceCube
2017
Non-standard interactions in the propagation of neutrinos in matter can lead to significant deviations from expectations within the standard neutrino oscillation framework and atmospheric neutrino detectors have been considered to set constraints. However, most previous works have focused on relatively low-energy atmospheric neutrino data. Here, we consider the one-year high-energy through-going muon data in IceCube, which has been already used to search for light sterile neutrinos, to constrain new interactions in the $\mu\tau$-sector. In our analysis we include several systematic uncertainties on both, the atmospheric neutrino flux and on the detector properties, which are accounted for v…
The performance of thin layers produced by molecular plating as α-particle sources
2013
Abstract Sources for α-spectroscopy studies were prepared. Constant current density molecular plating was used to produce layers containing the α-particle emitter 147 Sm. Different parameters of the molecular plating process were varied, namely the plating solvent (an isopropanol/isobutanol mixture, pyridine, and N , N -dimethylformamide), the applied deposition time (90, 180, and 360 min), and the surface roughness of the deposition substrate (ca. 10, 20, and 300 nm). Using different analytical techniques, Sm deposition yields, chemical composition of the produced surfaces, surface homogeneity, roughness and morphology were investigated. Alpha spectra were recorded with a Si solid-state de…
Systematics of nuclear charge distributions in Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn deduced from muonic x-ray measurements
1976
The results of precise measurements of the energies of the $2{p}_{\frac{3}{2}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}1{s}_{\frac{1}{2}}$ and $2{p}_{\frac{1}{2}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}1{s}_{\frac{1}{2}}$ muonic x-ray transitions of $^{54}\mathrm{Fe}$, $^{56}\mathrm{Fe}$, $^{57}\mathrm{Fe}$, $^{58}\mathrm{Fe}$, $^{59}\mathrm{Co}$, $^{58}\mathrm{Ni}$, $^{60}\mathrm{Ni}$, $^{61}\mathrm{Ni}$, $^{62}\mathrm{Ni}$, $^{64}\mathrm{Ni}$, $^{63}\mathrm{Cu}$, $^{65}\mathrm{Cu}$, $^{64}\mathrm{Zn}$, $^{66}\mathrm{Zn}$, $^{68}\mathrm{Zn}$, and $^{70}\mathrm{Zn}$, are reported. Using a highly linear digitally stabilized Ge(Li) spectrometer system, the absolute energies and energy shifts between nuclei were measured with…
Lifetime measurement in 195Po
2009
The lifetime of the 17/2+ yrast state in 195Po has been measured using the recoil distance Doppler-shift technique to be $ \tau$ = 43(11) ps. The lifetime was extracted from the singles $ \gamma$ -ray spectra obtained by using the recoil-decay tagging method. The present work provides more information of the coupling schemes, shapes and configuration mixing in neutron-deficient odd-mass Po nuclei.
