115. Perspectives in transfer reactions at next generation European RIB facilities

Didier Beaumel (RIKEN Nishina center, Saitama, Japan)

5/24/12, 9:00 AM

Nuclear structure far from stability

Oral

Transfer reactions are known to represent a powerful tool for investigating the structure of atomic nuclei in detail. In the last 15 years, new instrumentation and methodologies have been developed for efficient study of these reactions when performed with radioactive ionbeams. Based on recent transfer reaction experiments performed at GANIL and RIKEN, and on existing projects of detectors...

113. Shell structure far off stability studied via high-energy reactions

Chiara Nociforo (GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung, Darmstadt, Germany)

Nuclear structure far from stability

Oral

A highly interesting topic of modern nuclear structure research is to explore the evolution of the nuclear shell far from the valley of β-stability. The nuclear shell model, being so successful in stable nuclei, relies on the prevalence of a static nuclear potential and the dominance of the mean-field dynamics. It is an open question to what extent that concept is still valid in nuclei with...

31. Isomeric beams: population of high-spin states in projectile fragmentation

Dr Zsolt Podolyak (University of Surrey)

5/24/12, 10:00 AM

Nuclear structure far from stability

Oral

Fragmentation (including spallation) is the main reaction mechanism used to produce exotic nuclei in the majority of the present and future radioactive beam facilities. However the understanding of the reaction mechanism is still not good enough to predict accurately the yields of exotic nuclei. The situation is worse in the case of isomeric states. The main experimental observables to test...

36. Spectroscopic factors far from stability

Dr Alain GILLIBERT (CEA/IRFU/SPhN)

Nuclear structure far from stability

Oral

Nucleon transfer reactions have been for years a powerful tool to investigate the filling of orbitals issued from the nuclear shell model. Even for stable magic nuclei, spectroscopic factors deviate from unity. It is understood as the result of short and long-range correlations. In the case of exotic nuclei, the variation of spectroscopic factors with the difference in separation energy ΔS =...

55. Isomer and ground-state properties of stored exotic nuclei

Prof. Phil Walker (University of Surrey and CERN)

5/24/12, 10:40 AM

Nuclear structure far from stability

Oral

The ILIMA (Isomeric states, Lifetimes and Masses) collaboration at FAIR builds on experiences at GSI with the combination of the in-flight separator (FRS) [1] and the storage-cooler ring (ESR) [2] for the measurement of masses, lifetimes and decay modes of nuclear isomers and ground states. The two complementary techniques of isochronous mass spectrometry (IMS) and Schottky mass spectrometry...
