A two-neutron unbound excited state of O-24 was populated through a (d, d') reaction at 83.4 MeV/nucleon. A state at E = 715 +/- 110 (stat) +/- 45 (sys) keV with a width of Gamma < 2 MeV was observed above the two-neutron separation energy placing it at 7.65 +/- 0.2 MeV with respect to the ground state. Three-body correlations for the decay of O-24 -> O-22 + 2n show clear evidence of a sequential decay through an intermediate state in O-23. Neither a di-neutron nor phase-space model for the three-body breakup were able to describe these correlations.

Summary: This article introduces a successful method called HEIST for inverse kinematics measurements of heavy nuclei, which utilizes timing detectors, ion chambers, and a detector to measure time-of-flight, energy loss, and isomer decays for isotope identification calibration. Using HEIST, Pb-198 and other heavy nuclei have been successfully identified, and the charge state populations of these ions have been examined.

Comparison of Electron Capture Rates in the N=50 Region using 1D Simulations of Core-collapse Supernovae

Zac Johnston, Sheldon Wasik, Rachel Titus, MacKenzie L. Warren, Evan P. O'Connor, Remco Zegers, Sean M. Couch

Summary: Recent studies have shown that core-collapse supernova models are sensitive to electron-capture rates on neutron-rich nuclei. In this study, a large number of one-dimensional simulations were performed using updated EC rates. The results demonstrate that the EC rates have a consistent impact on various properties of core-collapse supernovae.

Simulations and analysis tools for charge-exchange (d, 2He) reactions in inverse kinematics with the AT-TPC

S. Giraud, J. C. Zamora, R. G. T. Zegers, Y. Ayyad, D. Bazin, W. Mittig, A. Carls, M. DeNudt, Z. Rahman

Summary: Charge-exchange (d,2He) reactions in inverse kinematics at intermediate energies are a promising method for studying Gamow-Teller transition strength in unstable nuclei. A simulation and analysis software based on the ATTPCROOT package was developed to investigate such reactions using the AT-TPC. The software allows for realistic detector response simulation, development of analysis tools, and investigation of space-charge effects in track reconstruction.

Summary: Subjecting a physical system to extreme conditions is a common method to gain a better understanding of its organization and structure. The investigation of isotopes with different neutron-to-proton ratios than stable nuclei is an important test for nuclear-structure theories. This study reports the first observation of the decay of O-28 and 27O isotopes and compares their decay energies with theoretical models. The results have implications for the understanding of nuclear structure.

Berg, Jeff Blackmon, Kelly Chipps, Manoel Couder, Catherine Deibel, Nikolaos Dimitrakopoulos, Ruchi Garg, Uwe Greife, Kirby Hermansen, Ashley Hood, Rahul Jain, Cavan Maher, Caleb Marshall, Zach Meisel, Sara Miskovich, Fernando Montes, Georgios Perdikakis, Jorge Pereira, Thomas Ruland, Hendrik Schatz, Kiana Setoodehnia, Michael Smith, Louis Wagner, Remco G. T. Zegers

Summary: The formation of nuclei in slightly proton-rich regions of neutrino-driven wind in core-collapse supernovae can be explained by the neutrino-p process (nu p-process). Recent studies have identified key (n,p) reactions that control the efficiency of the nu p-process. Measurement of a (n,p) reaction in inverse kinematics was performed with SECAR at NSCL/FRIB, which is difficult due to the nearly identical masses of recoils and unreacted projectiles. The development of new ion beam optics and the installation of a neutron detection system were necessary for this measurement.

Summary: The total cross section of the 82Kr(p, gamma)83Rb reaction was measured for the first time at effective center-of-mass energies between 2.4 and 3.0 MeV, which are relevant to the astrophysical gamma process. The experiment was conducted using the ReA facility at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory in Michigan State University. A 82Kr beam was directed onto a hydrogen gas cell located at the center of the Summing NaI(Tl) (SuN) detector. The obtained spectra were analyzed using the gamma-summing technique, revealing that the standard statistical model calculations overestimate the cross section of the 82Kr(p, gamma)83Rb reaction compared to the experimental measurements. The experimental data also provided additional constraints on the nuclear level density and the gamma-ray strength function used in the statistical model calculations.

Summary: In this study, the (p, n) charge-exchange reaction was used to test the extraction of beta-Gamow-Teller transition strengths, B(GT), from proton-rich unstable isotopes. The results were compared to shell-model and ab initio calculations, and demonstrated the feasibility of using this method.

Investigation of octupole collectivity near the I=72 shape-transitional point

M. Spieker, L. A. Riley, P. D. Cottle, K. W. Kemper, D. Bazin, S. Biswas, P. J. Farris, A. Gade, T. Ginter, S. Giraud, J. Li, S. Noji, J. Pereira, M. Smith, D. Weisshaar, R. G. T. Zegers

Summary: Enhanced octupole collectivity is observed in the neutron-deficient Ge, Se, and Kr isotopes. However, theoretical models struggle to predict octupole collectivity accurately due to shape coexistence and configuration mixing. In this study, the rare isotopes 72Se and 74,76Kr were investigated, revealing two distinct regions of octupole strengths near the shape-transitional point at A=72.

Finite-temperature electron-capture rates for neutron-rich nuclei near N=50 and effects on core-collapse supernova simulations

S. Giraud, R. G. T. Zegers, B. A. Brown, J-M Gabler, J. Lesniak, J. Rebenstock, E. M. Ney, J. Engel, A. Ravlic, N. Paar

Summary: The temperature dependence of stellar electron-capture rates is investigated in this study, focusing on nuclei near N = 50, just above Z = 28, which are important during the core-collapse phase of supernovae. Two new microscopic calculations of stellar electron-capture rates are obtained using relativistic and nonrelativistic approaches, and are compared with large-scale shell-model calculations for Kr-86. Numerical simulations of core-collapse supernovae are performed to assess the impact of these rate differences on the collapse dynamics, and the results suggest that the input electron-capture rates are well constrained.

Summary: This study investigates nucleon removal reactions and validates the models used to calculate the removal reaction cross sections. Three different nucleon removal reactions were performed and the partial cross sections to individual final states were determined by detecting the residual nuclei in coincidence with gamma rays. Comparison between measured and calculated cross sections reveals that the theoretical description of the removal process is in better agreement with the data when removing weakly bound nucleons.
