72. Delta isobars and nuclear saturation

Andreas Ekström (Chalmers University of Technology)

22/05/2018, 14:00

Oral presentation

Despite a century of the finest theoretical and experimental efforts, we still lack a precise, accurate, and systematic description of the strong interaction between protons and neutrons. In this talk I will present some of the recent developments and future perspectives towards a predictive theory for atomic nuclei. I will focus on the effects of including the delta baryon in a chiral...

26. Recent studies of shell evolution in the $^{78}$Ni region

Eda Sahin (University of Oslo)

22/05/2018, 14:20

Oral presentation

Exploring nuclei far away from the valley of stability on the drip lines is one of the main topics at the forefront of current nuclear physics research. Fundamental properties and structure of these so-called neutron-rich, exotic nuclei provide the necessary ingredients to the physics of the unknown “terra incognita” region. Both theoretical and experimental discoveries near the drip lines...

34. Sandbanks beyond the proton drip-line, x-ray bursts and the rp-process

Pär-Anders Söderström (TU-Darmstadt/RIKEN/ELI-NP)

22/05/2018, 14:40

Oral presentation

In this contribution we will discuss the observation of the previously unknown isotope $^{72}$Rb, with 14 observed events in BigRIPS and the ZeroDegree spectrometer during the EURICA campaign at RIKEN [1]. For context, the role of the neighbouring nuclei $^{72}$Kr and $^{73}$Rb will be discussed in their role as a waiting point in x-ray burst rp-process scenarios. The nonobservation of the...

5. Heavy neutron-rich nuclei

Zsolt Podolyak (University of Surrey)

22/05/2018, 15:00

Oral presentation

Studies of close-to-magic nuclei are of fundamental importance for our understanding of nuclear structure. In addition, the properties of N=126 semi-magic nuclei are important in predicting the abundances of elements in the A~195 r-process peak [1].

Neutron-rich nuclei around $^{208}$Pb can be populated in fragmentation and deep-inelastic (multi-nucleon transfer) reactions, with dedicated...

58. Recent results from CRIS and new opportunities at IGISOL

Ruben de Groote

Oral presentation

21. The next order of magnitude in precision and resolution at JYFLTRAP

Dr Tommi Eronen (University of Jyväskylä)

22/05/2018, 15:40

Oral presentation

JYFLTRAP is a double Penning trap setup in the accelerator laboratory of University of Jyväskylä dedicated primarily for atomic mass measurements of exotic ions and for providing clean samples of ions for decay spectroscopy studies. The setup has been operational for more than a decade utilizing time-of-flight ion-cyclotron resonance (TOF-ICR) technique for atomic mass measurements and various...
