Global polarization measurement in Au plus Au collisions
(American Physical Society, 2007)
The system created in noncentral relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions possesses large orbital angular momentum. Because of spin-orbit coupling, particles produced in such a system could become globally polarized along ...
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. ...
Beta decay of Ga-62
(American Physical Society, 2003)
We report a study of the beta decay of Ga-62, whose dominant branch is a superallowed 0(+)-->0(+) transition to the ground state of Zn-62. We find the total half-life to be 115.84+/-0.25 ms. This is the first time that the ...
Breakup of B-8 and the S-17 astrophysical factor reexamined
(American Physical Society, 2004)
Existing experimental data for the breakup of B-8 at energies from 30 to 1000 MeV/nucleon on light through heavy targets are analyzed in detail in terms of an extended Glauber model. The predictions of the model are in ...
Continuum spectroscopy with a (10)C beam: Cluster structure and three-body decay
(American Physical Society, 2009)
Resonance-decay spectroscopy is used to study particle-unbound excited states produced in interactions of E/A=10.7 MeV (10)C on Be and C targets. After inelastic scattering, structures associated with excited states in ...
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 ...
Rapidity and species dependence of particle production at large transverse momentum for d+Au collisions at root S(NN)=200 GeV
(American Physical Society, 2007)
We determine rapidity asymmetry in the production of charged pions, protons, and antiprotons for large transverse momentum (p(T)) for d+Au collisions at root s(NN)=200 GeV. The rapidity asymmetry is defined as the ratio ...
Neutral kaon interferometry in Au plus Au collisions at root(S)(NN) =200GeV
(American Physical Society, 2006)
We present the first statistically meaningful results from two-K-s(0) interferometry in heavy-ion collisions at root s(NN)=200 GeV. A model that takes the effect of the strong interaction into account has been used to fit ...
Refractive effects in the scattering of loosely bound nuclei
(American Physical Society, 2004)
A study of the interaction of the loosely bound nuclei Li-6,Li-7 at 9 and 19 MeV/nucleon with light targets has been undertaken. With the determination of unambiguous optical potentials in mind, elastic data for four ...
