Session 4: WP4 - Enhanced understanding of the actinide atomic structure & WP5 -Exploring the limits of nuclear existence
- Dag Hanstorp (Gothenburg University (SE))
The project of Early Stage Researcher 6 (ESR06), originally set to measure the electron affinity of an actinide, had to be adapted due to unforeseen circumstances. During their secondment with the CRIS experiment at ISOLDE-CERN, 238U− was successfully produced via two consecutive electron capture reactions. These results led to the theoretical work of the ESR, where they computed electron...
The study of the actinides represents a frontier in contemporary nuclear and atomic physics research. Lawrencium (Lr), with an atomic number of 103, is the heaviest and final actinide in the periodic table, positioned just before the super-heavy elements. Despite its significance, experimental data for lawrencium remain scarce. Precise and accurate theoretical calculations are essential for...
