57. Transport Model Comparisons for Intermediate-Energy Heavy-Ion Collisions

Heavy Ions

Transport models to describe the evolution of heavy-ion collisions are indispensable to extract information on the equation-of-state of nuclear matter and on medium properties of hadrons from such experiments in the intermediate energy range from several 100 MeV to a few GeV per nucleon. Of particular interest today is the high-density behavior of the nuclear symmetry energy, which is of...

Heavy Ions

Charge-exchange reactions offer the possibility to explore the features of the isospin and spin-isospin channels of the nuclear interaction and associated nuclear structure properties. For instance, they have been recently exploited to measure, in inverse kinematics, the spin-isospin response of neutron drip-line nuclei and to scrutinize the nature of the tetraneutron system.
Owing to the...

15. The multi-channel experimental and theoretical approach to study the $^{12}$C($^{18}$O,$^{18}$F)$^{12}$B single charge exchange reaction mechanism

Alessandro Spatafora (INFN-LNS & Università di Catania)

Heavy Ions

A full understanding of the reaction mechanisms involved in double and single charge exchange nuclear reactions is mandatory for the purposes of the NUMEN project. The main goal is to extract data driven information on nuclear matrix elements of neutrino-less double-beta decay from measured cross section of heavy-ion induced double charge exchange reactions.
An interesting benchmark to test...

41. Understanding Heavy-ion Fusion Cross Section Data Using Novel Artificial Intelligence Approaches

Daniele Dell'Aquila (Università degli Studi di Napoli "Federico II" & INFN-Napoli)

Heavy Ions

We modeled an unprecedentedly large dataset of complete fusion cross section data using a novel artificial intelligence approach. Our analysis aims especially to unveil, in a data-driven way, nuclear structure effects on the fusion between heavy ions and to suggest a universal formula capable to describe all previously available data. The study focused on light-to-medium-mass nuclei, where...
