  1. 16. Nuclear structure of exotic neutron-rich nuclei with AGATA
    Jose Javier Valiente Dobon (LNL (INFN))
    12/19/12, 11:00 AM
    Invited
    The European project AGATA is the result of a combined effort of many different countries and institutions to serve the future needs of the challenging experiments at new radioactive ion beam facilities. The new concept of the gamma-ray tracking spectrometer AGATA bases its excellences in being capable of identifying the gamma interaction points (pulse shape analysis) and via software in...

  2. 23. Status of the WITCH experiment
    Tomica Porobic (Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (BE))
    12/19/12, 11:30 AM
    Submitted
    One of the goals of precision measurements in nuclear beta-decay is searching for deviations from the Standard Model that could point to new physics. The primary aim of WITCH experiment [1] at the ISOLDE/CERN facility is the search for a scalar interaction in beta-decay by a precise (0.5%) determination of the beta-neutrino angular correlation coefficient, a, which would constrain a possible...

  3. 13. Lifetime measurements using DSAM with the MINIBALL set-up
    Michael Thurauf (Technische Universitaet Darmstadt (DE))
    12/19/12, 11:50 AM
    Submitted
    The transistion strengths of excited low-lying states serve as a sensitive testcase for theoretical models, such as the nuclear shell model. In the region around the doubly magic nucleus 132Sn experimental data on transition strengths and, thereby, lifetimes of the excited states are scarce. To improve the experimental situation, we determined the lifetimes of the first 2+ states in 140Ba [1]...

  4. 19. Resonance excitation in 7Be + d reaction to study 7Li abundance anomaly
    Dr Dhruba Gupta (Bose Institute)
    12/19/12, 12:10 PM
    Submitted
    A nuclear physics solution is searched to resolve the 7Li abundance anomaly in the cosmos. The enhancement of nuclear reaction rates by nuclear resonances plays a vital role in nuclear astrophysics. The existing contradiction between theory and observation demands more study on the resonances in 7Be(d,d) and 7Be(d,p) reactions, before invoking physics beyond the standard Big Bang Nucleosynthesis.

  5. 42. Solenoidal spectrometer for HIE-ISOLDE
    Prof. Robert Wadsworth (University of York)
    12/19/12, 12:20 PM
    Submitted
    The study of transfer reactions in inverse kinematics with radioactive beams will be a centrepiece of the programme once HIE-ISOLDE commences operation in a few years' time. There are several different approaches to such studies including the use of silicon arrays like T-REX and SHARC. An alternative is to use a solenoidal spectrometer such as HELIOS at Argonne National Laboratory. In this...
