We have studied the β decay of Tz=−1,f7/2 shell nuclei Ni54,Fe50,Cr46, and Ti42 produced in fragmentation reactions. The proton separation energies daughter Tz=0 are relatively large (≈4–5 MeV) so studies γ rays essential. experiments were performed at GSI as part Stopped-beam campaign with RISING setup consisting 15 Euroball Cluster Ge detectors. From newly obtained high precision β-decay half-lives, excitation energies, branching ratios, we able to extract Fermi Gamow-Teller transition...
One-neutron knockout reactions from neutron-rich nuclei, with Z=6−13 and N=8−22, were studied at the Fragment Separator (GSI) high beam energies, around 700 MeV/nucleon. Structural phenomena such as formation of one-neutron halos in odd-mass carbon isotopes (C15,17,19) will be discussed. In addition, measurements N22 carried out for first time demonstrate clearly change a 0d5/2 to 1s1/2 orbital valence neutron, an effect that is expected above N=14 was also observed O23 F24. The possibility...
One-neutron knockout data for 18−22N are analyzed in the eikonal approximation of Glauber model. The role s-d shell and crossing N=14 neutron subshell discussed. Of particular interest is nucleus 22N, where provide a sensitive experimental test possible halo structure its ground state. observation narrow momentum distribution 21N fragments, together with an essential 1s1/2 contribution needed to describe observed longitudinal-momentum distribution, allow firm conclusion that state 22N...
The low temperature scintillation properties of 5 atomic % Eu:SrI <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> from ambient down to K were studied for the first time. With decreasing temperature, a shift in emission wavelength and shortening decay time observed. Light yield energy resolution exhibited notable changes with maximized as was decreased.

Single neutron- and proton-removal cross sections have been systematically measured for 72 medium-mass neutron-rich nuclei around Z=50 energies 900A MeV using the FRagment Separator (FRS) at GSI. Neutron-removal are described by considering knock-out process together with initial- final-state interactions. Proton-removal are, however, significantly smaller than predicted same calculations. The observed difference can be explained as due to knockout of short-correlated protons in...

Abstract There are new challenges for plant operators due to the increased share of renewable energy. Plant must maintain high reliability and profits while plants being required be more flexible compensate variable generation addition these renewables into grid. deal with thermal strain wear-and-tear such operations. Various models have been proposed in literature. However, no work has reported on development a robust prediction model. The aim this study was determine which machine learning...
Among the variety of crystal calorimeters recently designed for several physics facilities, CALIFA (CALorimeter In-Flight emitted gAmmas and light-charged particles) has especially demanding requirements since it must perform within a very complicated energy domain (gamma-ray energies from 0.1 to 20 MeV up 300 protons). As part R&D program Barrel section CALIFA, reduced geometry prototype was constructed. This consisted 3 × 5 array CsI(Tl) crystals varying dimensions, coupled large area...
Wind based electric generation is one of the fastest growing energy sources in world. With rapid development wind farms, many challenges have emerged with respect to reliability and availability in-service equipment.
