85. Shell-driven Fission across the Nuclear Chart

Results are presented from a broad, systematic study of heavy-ion induced fusion-fission mass distributions carried out at the Australian National University, covering a significant part of the chart of the nuclides. Fission characteristics of isotopes of every even-Z compound nucleus (ZCN ) from 14464Gd to 21290Th were measured. Systematic evidence of shell-driven structure is present in...

52. Simultaneous measurement of fission, gamma, and multi-neutron emission in surrogate reactions at a heavy-ion storage ring

Neutron-induced reaction cross sections of short-lived nuclei are crucial for our understanding of nuclear fission and nuclear structure, with important applications for nuclear astrophysics and a wide range of nuclear technology. However, direct measurements of these cross sections are extremely challenging, or even impossible, due to the difficulty of producing and handling the required...

9. Directional distributions of prompt fission neutrons from 252Cf(sf)

The study of particle (n, p, α, and γ) emission in fission phenomena is crucial to understand the involved timescales, the energy dissipation, and the underlying mechanisms of the process. Among these, neutron emission is one of the most experimentally exploited process. Earlier studies of neutron-fragment (n-f), neutron-neutron (n–n) correlations were primarily focused on scission neutrons....

73. Magnetic Moment Measurements of 98Y Isomers Using the TDPAC Method at Lohengrin

David Friant (Institut Laue-Langevin / CEA Saclay)

The neutron-rich A~100 region is known for a sudden change in nuclear shape deformation from nearly spherical to highly-deformed as A goes from 97 to 99. The most severe change (as measured by the electric quadrupole deformation parameter) seems to occur in the region centered on 98Y. To better understand this phenomenon, the magnetic moments (another probe of nuclear deformation) of the 2−1...

87. Status of S3 and possible studies on spontaneous fission

Julien Piot (GANIL)

The in-depth study of the regions of Superheavy elements and the proton dripline around 100Sn are two major challenges of todays’ Nuclear Physics. Performing detailed spectroscopic studies on these nuclei requires a significant improvement of our detection capabilities. The Super-Separator-Spectrometer S3 is part of the SPIRAL2 facility at GANIL. Its aim is to use the high stable beam currents...
