  1. 128. Nuclear Structure Studies with Radioactive Beams at 10-50 MeV/nucleon
    Dr Wilton Catford (University of Surrey)
    14/09/2005, 11:00
    Applications in Nuclear Physics
    Invited Talk
    Secondary beams of radioactive nuclei open up new opportunities in nuclear structure studies and also bring extra requirements for position sensitive detectors. Individual incident beam particles often need to be tracked, and then the angles and energies of reaction products need to be recorded with extraordinarily high efficiency to compensate for low beam currents of less than...

    Nuclear structure studies utilizing the technique of gamma ray spectroscopy requires the use of state of the art detector systems. The advent of highly segmented High-Purity Germanium detectors and the method of Pulse Shape Analysis to determine the positions of interactions [1] will allow for greatly improved efficiency as well as excellent angular resolution. The Advanced Gamma...

    Two photon emission is a second order nuclear decay process which can, in principle, compete with any single photon or electron decay mechanism. In practice, such a process is very difficult to observe in the presence of a competing single-photon decay due to it being indistinguishable from Compton scattering. The two-photon branch can, however, be distinguished where no single...

  4. 75. Detection of ultra rare alpha decays of super heavy nuclei
    Dr Yuri Tsyganov (JINR, Dubna)

    Applications in Nuclear Physics
    Contributed Talk
    Three approaches to the measurement of a rare alpha decaying products produced in heavy-ion induced nuclear reactions are described. One is based on a chemical extraction and following deposition of the nuclides under investigation onto the surface of the detector, whereas the second one is associated with long –lived products implanted into silicon detectors by using the...

    We present an array of position sensitive detectors designed for the work with the beam of radioactive nuclei delivered by the separator ACCULINNA /1/. It is in use in the studies made on the structures of light nuclei with extreme neutron excess /2/. A pair multi wire proportional chambers (MWPC) installed in the front of a target is used for the measurement of the hit co-ordinates...
