Correlated two-proton decay from (10)C
(American Physical Society, 2008)
The decay of (10)C excited states to the 2p + 2 alpha exit channel has been studied using inelastic excitation of a secondary (10)C beam. The decay sequences leading to the 2p + 2 alpha final state are determined for the ...
Radius of B-8 halo from the asymptotic normalization coefficient
(American Physical Society, 2001)
The experimental asymptotic normalization coefficient determined from peripheral transfer reactions is used to obtain the root-mean-square radius of the wave function for the loosely bound proton in SB. It is shown that ...
Precise half-life measurements for the superallowed beta(+) emitters Ar-34 and Cl-34
(American Physical Society, 2006)
To contribute meaningfully to any test of the unitarity of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix, the measured ft value of a superallowed 0(+)-> 0(+) beta(+) transition must be obtained to a precision of 0.1% or better. ...
Branching ratios for the beta decay of Na-21
(American Physical Society, 2006)
We have measured the beta-decay branching ratio for the transition from Na-21 to the first excited state of Ne-21. A recently published test of the standard model, which was based on a measurement of the beta-nu correlation ...
Isospin-dependent properties of asymmetric nuclear matter in relativistic mean field models RID A-2398-2009
(American Physical Society, 2007)
Using various relativistic mean-field models, including nonlinear ones with meson field self-interactions, models with density-dependent meson-nucleon couplings, and point-coupling models without meson fields, we have ...
Astrophysical S factor for the radiative capture (12)N(p,gamma)(13)O determined from the (14)N((12)N,(13)O)(13)C proton transfer reaction
(American Physical Society, 2009)
The cross section of the radiative proton capture reaction on the drip line nucleus (12)N was investigated using the asymptotic normalization coefficient (ANC) method. We have used the (14)N((12)N,(13)O)(13)C proton transfer ...
Jet conversions in a quark-gluon plasma
(American Physical Society, 2007)
Quark and gluon jets traversing through a quark-gluon plasma not only lose their energies but also can undergo flavor conversions. The conversion rates via the elastic q((q) over bar )g -> gq((q) over bar )and the inelastic ...
High precision measurements of Na-26 beta(-) decay
(American Physical Society, 2005)
High-precision measurements of the half-life and beta-branching ratios for the beta(-) decay of Na-26 to Mg-26 have been measured in beta-counting and gamma-decay experiments, respectively. A 4 pi proportional counter and ...
Determination of the astrophysical S factor for C-11(p,gamma)N-12 from the N-12 -> C-11+p asymptotic normalization coefficient
(American Physical Society, 2003)
The evolution of very low-metallicity, massive stars depends critically on the amount of CNO nuclei that they produce. Alternative paths from the slow 3alpha process to produce CNO seed nuclei could change their fate. The ...
High precision branching ratio measurement for the superallowed beta decay of Rb-74: A prerequisite for exacting tests of the standard model
(American Physical Society, 2003)
Nonanalog Fermi and Gamow-Teller branches in the superallowed beta decay of Rb-74 have been investigated using gamma-ray and conversion-electron spectroscopy. Nine observed transitions, in conjunction with a recent shell ...
