Changes in latency of evoked potentials after caudate nucleus stimulation1
1984
Resume L'activation de la tete du noyau caude de chats qui avaient ete soumis a la section de la moelle epiniere a la hauteur de C 1 produit l'inhibition des potentiels evoques de la zone motrice (region pre-cruciale) et la reduction du temps de latence du maximum de l'onde lente negative. Les resultats de la reduction de latence sont discutes par rapport a la variation d'intensite de la stimulation declenchant l'activite du cortex moteur. On sougline enfin le role joue par le noyau caude dans le controle du systeme moteur.
Lifetime measurement of the first excited2+state inTe112
2015
The lifetime of the 2(+) --> 0(g.s.)(+) transition in the neutron-deficicient nucleus Te-112 has been measured for the first time using the DPUNS plunger and the recoil distance Doppler shift te ...
High-precision mass spectrometer for light ions
2020
The precise knowledge of the atomic masses of light atomic nuclei, e.g. the proton, deuteron, triton and helion, is of great importance for several fundamental tests in physics. However, the latest high-precision measurements of these masses carried out at different mass spectrometers indicate an inconsistency of five standard deviations. To determine the masses of the lightest ions with a relative precision of a few parts per trillion and investigate this mass problem a cryogenic multi-Penning trap setup, LIONTRAP (Light ION TRAP), was constructed. This allows an independent and more precise determination of the relevant atomic masses by measuring the cyclotron frequency of single trapped …
The influence of quasineutron configurations on 161Ta and nearby odd-A Nuclei
2011
Several strongly coupled bands in the neutron‐deficient nucleus 161Ta have been identified and quasiparticle configuration assignments have been made on the basis of rotational alignments and cranked shell model calculations. The level scheme elucidated for 161Ta highlights the competition between the ν(h9/2) and ν(i13/2) orbitals to form the yrast spectrum. The band structures in 161Ta also provide new insights into the structural features of other heavy odd‐A nuclei populated with much lower reaction cross sections in this region at the proton drip line.
A Study of the Correlation between the Amplification of the Fe Kα Line and the X‐Ray Continuum of Quasars due to Microlensing
2006
The observed enhancement of the Fe Kα line in three gravitationally lensed QSOs (MG J0414+0534, QSO 2237+0305, and H1413+117) is interpreted in terms of microlensing, even when equivalent X-ray continuum amplification is not observed. In order to interpret these observations, first we studied the effects of microlensing on quasar spectra produced by a straight fold caustic crossing over a standard relativistic accretion disk. The disk emission was analyzed using the ray-tracing method, considering Schwarzschild and Kerr metrics. When the emission is separated into two regions (an inner disk corresponding to the Fe Kα line and an outer annulus corresponding to the continuum, or vice versa), …
Prospects of Medium Tomography using 2-,3- and 4-Particle Correlations for a (semi-)hard Trigger
2007
Hard partons propagating through hot and dense matter lose energy, leading to the observed depletion of hard hadron spectra in nucleus nucleus collision as compared to scaled proton proton collisions. This lost energy has to be redistributed in the medium due to the conservation of energy, which is manifest in the p_T dependence of the angular correlation pattern of hadrons associate with a (semi-) hard trigger. While at low p_T a splitting of a broad peak is observed, at high p_T the structure shows vacuum width, albeit with reduced yield. This sugests a transfer of energy from hard partons to a collectively recoiling medium. We present a systematic study of these phenomena using a realist…
N=82Shell Quenching of the Classicalr-Process “Waiting-Point” NucleusCd130
2003
First $\ensuremath{\beta}$- and $\ensuremath{\gamma}$-spectroscopic decay studies of the $N=82$ $r$-process ``waiting-point'' nuclide $^{130}\mathrm{C}\mathrm{d}$ have been performed at CERN/ISOLDE using the highest achievable isotopic selectivity. Several nuclear-physics surprises have been discovered. The first one is the unanticipatedly high energy of 2.12 MeV for the [$\ensuremath{\pi}{g}_{9/2}\ensuremath{\bigotimes}\ensuremath{\nu}{g}_{7/2}]$ ${1}^{+}$ level in $^{130}\mathrm{I}\mathrm{n}$, which is fed by the main Gamow-Teller transition. The second surprise is the rather high ${Q}_{\ensuremath{\beta}}$ value of 8.34 MeV, which is in agreement only with recent mass models that include…
Precision measurement of structure function ratios for $^{6}$Li, $^{12}$C and $^{40}$Ca
1992
The structure function ratiosF2C/F2Li,F2Ca/F2Li andF2Ca/F2C were measured in deep inelastic muonnucleus scattering at an incident muon energy of 90 GeV, covering the kinematic range 0.0085<x<0.6 and 0.8<Q2<17GeV2. The sensitivity of the nuclear structure functions to the size and mean density of the target nucleus is discussed.
PRODUCTION OF Θ+ HYPERNUCLEI WITH THE (K+, π+) REACTION
2005
Abstract We present results on the production of bound states of Θ + in nuclei using the ( K + , π + ) reaction. By taking into account the states obtained within a wide range of strength of the Θ + nucleus optical potential, plus the possibility to replace different nucleons of the nucleus, we obtain an excitation spectra with clearly differentiated peaks. The magnitude of the calculated cross sections is well within reachable range.
Threshold Electroproduction of Charged Pions from Light Nuclei
1977
Double-differential cross sections for the electroproduction of pions of both charges have been measured. We compare the data obtained for production near threshold from $^{12}\mathrm{C}$ and $^{16}\mathrm{O}$ with theoretical treatments employing both shell-model and sum-rule nuclear descriptions with full inclusion of the final-state interaction.
