The goal of ESSnuSB project is to discover and measure neutrino CP violation using a long-baseline oscillation experiment taking advantage of two recent opportunities. The first is the construction of the European Spallation Source, ESS, in Lund, which is planned to be the world’s most intense proton source.The second is the recently measured large value of the oscillation mixing angle θ13. A...
The region of $\alpha$ decaying nuclei close to $^{100}$Sn offers a unique opportunity to study $\alpha$ decays, where the valence nucleons occupy the same orbitals. This might give a rise to exceptionally high $\alpha$-particle preformation factor, leading to very fast $\alpha$ decay. This kind of enhanced $\alpha$ decay was suggested already in 1965 [1], however, to date there is no...
The recent upgrade to the ISOLDE radioactive beam facility, the HIE-ISOLDE project, opens new possibilities for studies of exotic nuclei. At the current stage HIE-ISOLDE can provide up to 8MeV/A post-accelerated radioactive beam, and will reach 10MeV/A in the summer of 2018. Combined with ISOLDE’s high purity and intensity beams, we can take on the challenge of studying light nuclei near the...
In this talk we will discuss Studies of the Atomic Nuclei performed by the Madrid-Arhus-Göteborg (MAGISOL)-collaboration at the CERN-ISOLDE facility.
The MAGISOL installations at the ISOLDE Decay station and at the XT03 beam line of HIE-ISOLDE are described. In continuation a discussion on resent experiments; IS633 on the Electron capture of 8B into highly excited states in 8Be, and IS561 on...
