Poster Competition (Graduate Student) / Compétition affiches (Étudiant(e) 2e ou 3e cycle)

Neutron stars are very dense objects that result from the death of a main-sequence star with an original mass between 8 and 25 solar masses. Studying the interior of these stars through events such as binary neutron star mergers can help explain the behavior of ultra-compact matter similar to that found inside an atomic nucleus. During these mergers, gravitational energy transfers to neutrinos...

Nuclear Physics / Physique nucléaire (DNP-DPN)

Poster Competition (Undergraduate Student) / Compétition affiches (Étudiant(e) du 1er cycle)

Prior research into dense neutron-rich matter reveals an extraordinary revelation: the dynamic interplay between the nuclear strong force and the Coulomb force orchestrates the formation of complex structures referred to as Nuclear Pasta, exhibiting shapes such as spheres, slabs, and rods. This research employs semi-classical molecular dynamic simulations to investigate the response of Nuclear...

Nuclear Physics / Physique nucléaire (DNP-DPN)

Poster not-in-competition (Graduate Student) / Affiche non-compétitive (Étudiant(e) du 2e ou 3e cycle)

The neutron electric dipole moment (EDM) is being extensively studied worldwide with the goal of improving its precision. At TRIUMF, the EDM precision goal is $10^{-27}$ e-cm, which is an order of magnitude more precise than the previous best measurement. The experiment will use a new high-intensity ultracold neutron (UCN) source and a newly developed neutron EDM spectrometer. UCN will be...

Nuclear Physics / Physique nucléaire (DNP-DPN)

Poster Competition (Undergraduate Student) / Compétition affiches (Étudiant(e) du 1er cycle)

Decay spectroscopy stands as a pivotal tool in unravelling the intricate properties of atomic nuclei, offering unparalleled insights into the fundamental processes governing the decay of rare isotopes and shaping our understanding of nuclear physics. GRIFFIN (Gamma-Ray Infrastructure For Fundamental Investigations of Nuclei) is a world-leading facility for decay spectroscopy with rare-isotope...
