Dr Jianmin Dong (Institute of modern physics, CAS)19/10/2017, 16:40PosterThe Isobaric Multiplet Mass Equation (IMME) is the most fundamental prediction in nuclear physics based on the concept of isospin. However, the IMME does not in itself provide any information on the nature of the charge-violating nuclear interactions. One related long-standing question is the microscopic origin of the Nolen-Schiffer anomaly found in the Coulomb displacement energy of mirror...Go to contribution page

Mrs Elena Ferri (MIB)19/10/2017, 16:40PosterA powerful tool to determine the effective electron-neutrino mass is the calorimetric measurement of the energy released in a nuclear beta decay. Performing a precision measurement of the end point of the Electron Capture decay spectrum of 163Ho , HOLMES aims at pushing down the sensitivity on the neutrino mass below 1 eV.

Afroditi Papadopoulou (Graduate Student at MIT)19/10/2017, 16:40PosterNeutrino physics is entering the age of precision measurements. A number of experiments have firmly established the occurrence of neutrino oscillations and determined the corresponding squared mass differences and mixing angles. These measurements have provided unambiguous evidence that neutrinos do have non-vanishing masses. The large θ 13 mixing angle will enable future experiments to...Go to contribution page

Dr Xinle Shang (neutron-proton pairing)19/10/2017, 16:40PosterIn asymmetric nuclear matter, the mismatched Fermi surfaces of neutrons and protons prevent pairing between the two species near the average Fermi surface. We propose an axi-symmetric angle-dependent gap (ADG) state with broken rotational symmetry in reference [1] by considering the angle dependence of the pairing gap in 3SD1 channel, in which the pairing gap is angle-dependent due to the...Go to contribution page

Wenmei Guo (LNS)19/10/2017, 16:40PosterRecently, much attention has been paid to the equation of state (EOS) of dense nuclear matter to understand the neutron star (NS) thermal evolution. The exploration of NS cooling might clarify some diffcult issues of nuclear physics, such as the cooling mechanism due to the neutrino emission in supernovae and proto-neutron stars. In addition, the time scales over which proto-NS deleptonize and...Go to contribution page

Mr Federico Pinna (INFN)19/10/2017, 16:40PosterSince the discovery of the neutrino oscillations, which imply non-zero neutrino mass, neutrino physics and the study of the neutrino-less double beta decay (0νββ) have received ever growing interest. Several experiments are currently trying to detect the 0νββ event and to measure the half-life, which is inversely proportional to the squared neutrino effective mass.
