In 2015, the US nuclear science advisory committee (NSAC) in its long range planning exercise strongly recommended the construction of a high-energy high-luminosity electron ion collider (EIC). It was recognized that the EIC, with its polarized electron and light ion beams, and unpolarized heavy ion beams, would be a unique facility to help us study the role of gluons in QCD and answer some of...
The study of the beta-decay properties in the very neutron-rich region is required for a better understanding of the elemental abundances of heavy elements in the Universe. An important decay mechanism in this region includes beta-delayed neutron emissions when the Q-beta value is larger than the neutron separation energy. Thus, by improving the knowledge about these decays we can better...
