The Gamma-Ray Infrastructure For Fundamental Investigations of Nuclei (GRIFFIN) at TRIUMF-ISAC provides unique opportunities for decay studies with rare-isotope beams. GRIFFIN is located in the ISAC-I facility at TRIUMF and comprises 16 high-efficiency Compton-suppressed HPGe clover detectors. GRIFFIN is complemented by a suite of ancillary detector systems that allow for comprehensive studies...
The controlled collimation of ion beams is of paramount importance in particle accelerators, high energy beamlines, and detector systems, as it determines the sensitivity and resolution of the instruments. This is especially the case when dealing with radioactive ion beams, where high transportation yields are crucial due to the short lifetimes of certain nuclei. For this reason, it is...
Gamma ray spectroscopy in the Nuclear Science Laboratory (NSL) at Simon Fraser University (SFU) is used for nuclear structure studies, neutron activation analysis, and environmental radioactivity monitoring. The current detection system is the Germanium detector for Elemental Analysis and Radioactivity Studies (GEARS), and consists of a single high purity germanium (HPGe) detector which is...
The study of neutron rich nuclei far from the valley of stability has become an increasingly important field of research. One of the decay mechanisms that opens when the decay $Q$ value becomes sufficiently large is that of $\beta$-delayed neutron emission and the probability of its occurance, $P_n$, is important when studying the astrophysical r-process [1]. $\beta$-delayed neutron...
One of the recently developed approaches capable of describing both bound and scattering states in light nuclei simultaneously is the No-Core Shell Model with Continuum (NCSMC). This technique represents a state-of-the-art ab initio approach and combines the No-Core Shell Model (NCSM) description of short-range correlations with the clustering and scattering properties of the Resonating Group...
