We investigate the role of the Pauli Exclusion Principle (PEP) for light nuclei, at the examples of 12C and 16O. We show that ignoring the PEP does lead not only to a too dense spectrum at low energy but also to a wrong grouping into bands. Using a geometrical mapping, a triangular structure for 12C and a tetrahedral structure in 16O in the ground state is obtained by using the indistinguishably of the α-particles.
Based on the positive results of the 0.63 m unmodulated 325 MHz Ladder-RFQ prototype from 2013 to 2016 [1, 2], a modulated 3.3m Ladder-RFQ (s. Fig. 1) has been designed and built for the acceleration of up to 100 mA protons from 95 keV to 3.0 MeV at the FAIR p-Linac [3, 4]. In this paper, we will show the results of manufacturing as well as low level RF measurements of the Ladder-RFQ including flatness and frequency tuning.
One-photon and multi-photon absorption, spontaneous and stimulated photon emission, resonance Raman scattering and electron transfer are important molecular processes that commonly involve combined vibrational-electronic (vibronic) transitions. The corresponding vibronic transition profiles in the energy domain are usually determined by Franck-Condon factors (FCFs), the squared norm of overlap integrals between vibrational wavefunctions of different electronic states. FC profiles are typically highly congested for large molecular systems and the spectra usually become not well-resolvable at elevated temperatures. The (theoretical) analyses of such spectra are even more difficult when vibrational mode mixing (Duschinsky) effects are significant, because contributions from different modes are in general not separable, even within the harmonic approximation. A few decades ago Doktorov, Malkin and Man'ko [1979 J. Mol. Spectrosc. 77, 178] developed a coherent state-based generating function approach and exploited the dynamical symmetry of vibrational Hamiltonians for the Duschinsky relation to describe FC transitions at zero Kelvin. Recently, the present authors extended the method to incorporate thermal, single vibronic level, non-Condon and multi-photon effects in energy, time and probability density domains for the efficient calculation and interpretation of vibronic spectra. Herein, recent developments and corresponding generating functions are presented for single vibronic levels related to fluorescence, resonance Raman scattering and anharmonic transition.
The influence of an ac current of arbitrary amplitude and frequency on the mixed-state dc-voltage-ac-drive tiltingratchet response of a superconducting film with uniaxial cosine pinning potential at finite temperature is theoretically investigated. The results are obtained in the single-vortex approximation, within the frame of an exact solution of the Langevin equation for non-interacting vortices. Both experimentally achievable, the dc ratchet response and absorbed ac power are predicted to demonstrate a pronounced filter-like behavior at microwave frequencies. Based on our findings, we propose a cut-off filter and discuss its operating curves as functions of the driving parameters, i.e, ac amplitude, frequency, and dc bias. The predicted results can be examined, e.g, on superconducting films with a washboard pinning potential landscape.
LICE is one of the four major LHC experiments at CERN. When the accelerator enters the Run 3 data-taking period, starting in 2021, ALICE expects almost 100 times more Pb-Pb central collisions than now, resulting in a large increase of data throughput. In order to cope with this new challenge, the collaboration had to extensively rethink the whole data processing chain, with a tighter integration between Online and Offline computing worlds. Such a system, code-named ALICE O2, is being developed in collaboration with the FAIR experiments at GSI. It is based on the ALFA framework which provides a generalized implementation of the ALICE High Level Trigger approach, designed around distributed software entities coordinating and communicating via message passing.
We will highlight our efforts to integrate ALFA within the ALICE O2 environment. We analyze the challenges arising from the different running environments for production and development, and conclude on requirements for a flexible and modular software framework. In particular we will present the ALICE O2 Data Processing Layer which deals with ALICE specific requirements in terms of Data Model. The main goal is to reduce the complexity of development of algorithms and managing a distributed system, and by that leading to a significant simplification for the large majority of the ALICE users.
Collective flow phenomena are a sensitive probe for the properties of extreme QCD matter. However, their interpretation relies on the understanding of the initial conditions e.g. the eccentricity of the nuclear overlap region. HADES [1] provides a large acceptance combined with a high mass-resolution and therefore allows to study di-electron and hadron production in heavy-ion collisions with unprecedented precision. In this contribution, the capability of HADES to study flow harmonics by utilizing multi-particle azimuthal correlation techniques is discussed. Due to the high statistics of seven billion Au+Au collisions at 1.23 AGeV collected in 2012, a systematic study of higher-order flow harmonics, the differentiation between collective and non-flow effects, and as well the multi-differential (pt, rapidity, centrality) analysis is possible.
We show examples of the impact of the Maxwellian averaged capture cross sections determined at n_TOF over the past 20 years on AGB stellar nucleosynthesis models. In particular, we developed an automated procedure to derive MACSs from evaluated data libraries, which are subsequently used as input to stellar models computed by means of the FuNS code. In this contribution, we present a number of s-process abundances obtained using different data libraries as input to stellar models, with a focus on the role of n_TOF data.
Present nuclear reaction network computations for astrophysical simulations involve many different types of rates, including neutron-capture reactions of interest for the modeling of heavy-element nucleosynthesis. While for many of them we still have to rely on theoretical calculations, an increasing number of experimentally-determined cross sections have now become available. In this contribution, we present “ASTrophysical Rate and rAw data Library” (ASTRAL), a new online database for neutron-capture cross sections based on experimental results, mainly obtained through activation and timeof-flight measurements. For the evaluation process, cross sections were re-calculated starting from raw data and by considering recent changes in physical properties of the involved isotopes (e.g., half-life and γ-ray intensities). We show the current status of the database, the techniques adopted to derive the recommended Maxwellian-averaged cross sections, and future developments.
Prediction for hyper nuclei multiplicities from GSI to LHC energies from the Ultra-relativistic Quantum Molecular Dynamics (UrQMD) model combined with a final state coalescence approach is presented and compared to the thermal model. The influence of the coalescence radius on the collision energy and centrality dependence of the Λ3H/ΛΛ3H/Λ ratio is discussed.
