Experiments for Nuclear Structure
- Chloé Fougères (CEA)
The “Nuclear Data for Reactors” research group at the Institut pluridisciplinaire Hubert-Curien (IPHC) in Strasbourg (France) has developed a comprehensive and long-term experimental program to experimentally characterize the inelastic neutron scattering reactions. These reactions play an important role in nuclear reactor physics, influencing neutron slowing-down, power distribution, and...
There are approximately 300 stable and 3,000 known unstable (rare) isotopes. Estimates are that over 7,000 different isotopes are bound by the nuclear force. It is now recognized that the properties of many, sometimes undiscovered, rare isotopes hold the key to understanding how to develop a comprehensive and predictive model of atomic nuclei, to accurately model a variety of astrophysical...
Nuclear moment measurements are a central topic in studies of exotic nuclei far away from stability, since they provide information about the composition of the wave function and the shapes of atomic nuclei. The progress in the field was reviewed recently [1-3]. In this talk I will present the recent advances in the field related to the different experimental techniques and the prospects for...
