  1. 1. Development of a Neutron Activation Analysis station at the Lund Ion Beam Analysis Facility

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Josephine Lindsey-Clark; [2021]
    Keywords : Neutron Activation Analysis; NAA; European Spallation Source; ESS; Lund Ion Beam Analysis Facility; LIBAF; Gamma-Ray Spectra; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This report outlines the first stages of the development of the Neutron Activation Analysis station at the Lund Ion Beam Analysis Facility in the Division of Nuclear Physics, Lund University. The motivation for this project is to use the Neutron Activation Analysis detection technique for environmental monitoring around the European Spallation Source, soon to come into operation.

  3. 2. Exploring the application of neural networks in predictions of nuclear binding energies

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Martin Waites; [2020]
    Keywords : neural networks; drip-line; nuclear physics; binding energy; exotic nuclei; Hartree-Fock-Bogolyubov; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this project the locations of the proton and neutron drip-lines are predicted using neural networks and theoretical data obtained by applying the HFBTHO program. For each of the neural networks a comparison is made between neural network predictions and experimental data in the region experimental data exists. READ MORE

  4. 3. Measurement of particle yields induced by 200-MeV protons on multiple targets

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Rafael Antonio Lopez; [2018]
    Keywords : QFS; Quasi-free Scattering; 16O; 112Sn; 124Sn; FAIR; CsI Tl ; R3B; 6.3-MeV gamma; CALIFA; p; 2p ; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : One way to probe the structure of atomic nuclei far from stability is via quasi-free scattering (QFS) reactions. We conducted a (p,2p) QFS experiment on H2O, 112Sn, 124Sn and 208Pb targets in order to test the performance of CsI(Tl) detectors that are to be used in the upcoming R3B experiments at FAIR.

  5. 4. Study of Proton Emission in Complex Nuclei

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Jonatan Adolfsson; [2016]
    Keywords : Nuclear physics; Nuclear theory; Nuclei far from stability; Proton decay; Cobalt-53; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In a recent experiment, the partial half-life ([i]t[/i][sub]1/2[/sub]) of proton emission from the [i]I[/i][sup]π[/sup] = 19/2[sup]-[/sup] state of [sup]53[/sup]Co was accurately measured. A previous estimate is [i]t[/i][sub]1/2[/sub] ~ 17 s. READ MORE
