Zsolt REVAY (Heinz Maier-Leibnitz Zentrum (MLZ), TU München)20/07/2023, 14:20ApplicationsInvited Oral
The prompt gamma activation analysis (PGAA) facility has continuously been developed at Heinz Maier-Leibnitz Center (MLZ). Four Compton-suppressed HPGe detectors equipped with modern cooling systems and 64k digitals spectrometers have been used for analytical and nuclear-physics experiments in the strongest cold neutron beam of the world. The standard PGAA setup consists of a 60-% and a...

paramount importance in nuclear physics. In these nuclei, often termed exotic, new
shell closures may emerge, while others may disappear. A crucial region is formed by
the neutron rich Calcium isotopes, with striking appearances of new magic numbers at
N = 32 and N = 34.

Andrew STUCHBERY (Department of Nuclear Physics and Accelerator Applications, The Australian National University, Canberra ACT 2601, Australia )20/07/2023, 15:10Experimental Nuclear StructureInvited Oral
The emergence of collectivity in atomic nuclei is a primary research theme of the Australian National University Nuclear Structure Group. Through precision spectroscopy we aim to map emerging collectivity as valence nucleons are added to a doubly magic core, to elucidate the nature of weakly-collective nuclei, and to quantify the role of intruder configurations and shape-coexistence in...

G. Lotay (University of Surrey, Guildford, UK)20/07/2023, 15:35Nuclear AstrophysicsInvited Oral
Recent multi-messenger observations of explosive astronomical events are generating exciting new challenges for nuclear physics and force a rethinking of old paradigms. In particular, advanced, space-based telescopes have provided unprecedented insight into the production of chemical elements across the Galaxy, while the detection of massive neutron stars have ruled out a variety of hypotheses...
