Swapan K. Saha (Bose Institute)02/12/2015, 18:20PosterRadiative capture cross sections at astrophysical energies are difficult to measure directly. The time reversed Coulomb breakup reaction may be used in such cases. Thus the Coulomb breakup of $^7$Be, preferably in the presence of heavy targets can be used to measure the production cross section of $^7$Be by $^3$He + $^4$He → $^7$Be + $\gamma$. This would enable measurements at low relative...Go to contribution page

Correlations between the material status and the occurrence of the effect as well as some changing of the electrochemical interface status have been observed. During the last two decades the phenomenon was observed, well...Go to contribution page

Abel Eduardo Da Silva Fenta (University of Aveiro (PT))02/12/2015, 18:20PosterThe one-atom-thick crystal - graphene, uniquely combines extreme mechanical strength, exceptionally high electronic and thermal conductivities, as well as many other exotic properties, all of which make it highly interesting for fundamental physics and numerous applications. Its properties strongly depend on surface and interface nanoscale interactions, where new physical models should apply...Go to contribution page

Katerina Chrysalidis (Johannes-Gutenberg-Universitaet Mainz (DE))02/12/2015, 18:20PosterThe Resonance Ionization Laser Ion Source (RILIS) is the principle ionization technique for radioactive beam production at ISOLDE. It is based on multi-step laser resonance excitation and ionization of atomic species and is typically applied inside the hot cavity of the ISOLDE target and ion source assembly. To enable efficient laser ionization for additional elements, optimal ionization...Go to contribution page

Angelo Rafael Granadeiro Costa (Instituto Superior Tecnico (PT))02/12/2015, 18:20PosterSiC is a wide band gap semiconductor with an increasing number of applications in high-temperature electronics. Similar to Si, transition metals (TMs) in SiC are the source of deep levels in the band gap, however, the knowledge on structural properties of TMs in SiC, such as possible lattice sites, is much less advanced. In this work we report first results on the lattice site location of...Go to contribution page

Marcelo Baptista Barbosa (Universidade do Porto (PT))02/12/2015, 18:20PosterGallium oxide (Ga2O3) belongs to the family of transparent conductive oxides, electrically conductive materials that are optically transparent. These materials have been widely studied due to their technological applicability, and Ga2O3, having the widest band-gap among them (4.8 eV), is a very interesting material for photonic applications working in the visible and UV wavelength...Go to contribution page

Numa Abdulmaeen S Althubiti (University of Manchester (GB))02/12/2015, 18:20PosterIn this work neutron-deficient isotopes 195(g,m)Po and 197(g,m)Po have been investigated by using high-precision Penning-trap mass spectrometry at ISOLTRAP [1]. In addition, decay measurements on these isotopes were performed with the assistance of ISOLTRAP’s multi-reflection time-of-flight mass spectrometer (MR-TOF MS) [2], which successfully enabled us to deliver an isobarically pure beam...Go to contribution page

Andree Welker (Technische Universitaet Dresden (DE))02/12/2015, 18:20PosterWe present very recent ISOLTRAP [1, 2] measurements of neutron rich copper isotopes, where – with the help of the multi-reflection time-of-flight mass spectrometer – $^{79}$Cu was reached for the first time. Having only one proton above the $Z = 28$ core, the binding energies of the copper isotopes are sensitive to the evolution of nuclear shell structure close to the doubly-magic $^{78}$Ni...Go to contribution page

Abel Eduardo Da Silva Fenta (University of Aveiro (PT))02/12/2015, 18:20PosterPerturbed angular correlation (PAC) spectroscopy experiments were used to study the adhesion of toxic heavy metal ions in aqueous solution to magnetic nanoparticles, to understand the structures and optimum trapping conditions in solutions (water and nitrate). In this work we analyze the results of the radioactive mercury and cadmium isotopes available for PAC, which were implanted in ice. The...Go to contribution page

Dr Christophe Olivier Sotty ("Horia Hulubei" National Institute for Physics and Nuclear Engineering, 077125 Bucharest-Magurele, Romania)02/12/2015, 18:20PosterExhibiting one of the most sudden onset of deformation, the neutron-rich A=100 mass region has recently attracted a vast interest from the nuclear structure community. The influence of the neutron contribution to the deformation has been already well investigated in the Sr and Zr isotopes; however, a better understanding of the role played by the proton orbitals was needed to draw a...Go to contribution page

02/12/2015, 18:20PosterMoO3 is a promising material for applications in sensors and future electrochromic imaging devices. Since the phenomenology at the origin of the macroscopic properties occurs at the atomic scale, we used the nuclear technique of Perturbed Angular Correlation (PAC), after implantation of 111mCd or 176Lu at ISOLDE, on MoO3 samples to investigate the defect structure and recovery upon ion...Go to contribution page

Matthias Nagl (Uni-Göttingen)02/12/2015, 18:20PosterFor the GLM branch of ISOLDE an ensemble of new collection chambers is currently being finished. One chamber allows rapid sample changing by means of a load-lock system as well as tilted implantations. The second chamber will provide the possibility to implant decelerated or post-accelerated ion beams and thus to control implantation depth. Finally, a third chamber will be optimized for...Go to contribution page

Dhruba Gupta (Bose Institute (IN))02/12/2015, 18:20PosterThe destruction of the $^7$Be nucleus is immensely important in studying the $^7$Li abundance anomaly. The relevant reaction rates, particularly the destruction of $^7$Be through resonance excitation in the transfer reaction $^7$Be (d,p) $^8$Be *, need to be measured with better accuracy before one can invoke solutions beyond nuclear physics. The T-REX detector array is suitable for such...Go to contribution page
