Total Kinetic Energy Release in the Fast Neutron Induced Fission of 237Np

Creator:: Pica, Ashley
Abstract:: The total kinetic energy (TKE) in the fast neutron induced fission of 237Np was measured for neutron energies from En = 2.6 – 45.7 MeV at the LANSCE- WNR facility. The postTKE release decreases non-linearly with increasing incident neutron energy and can be represented as TKE(MeV) = (169.365 ± 1.551)...

Fusion enhancement with neutron-rich radioactive beams

Creator:: Zyromski, Kristiana Elizabeth
Abstract:: Fusion reactions with radioactive neutron-rich projectiles have been the subject of much recent theoretical and experimental interest. Predictions of enhancement of the cross section due to the use of a neutron-rich projectile may have implications for synthesis of heavy nuclei. In this work, the fusion-fission excitation functions were measured for...

Survival Mediated Capture and Fusion Cross Sections for Heavy Element Synthesis

Creator:: Yao, Liangyu
Abstract:: The synthesis of superheavy element evaporation residues is described by the product of the capture cross section, fusion probability, and survival probability. Capture cross sections are moderately well known. The fusion probability is the least known with many uncertainties. The formalism for the survival probability is known, but the parameters...

Studying fusion reactions for effect of PCN on heavy nucleus formation and for nuclear structure effects

Creator:: Naik, Radhika
Abstract:: The fusion reaction ²⁰⁸Pb (⁵⁰Ti, xn) ²⁵⁸⁻x Rf (x = 1-3) was studied to determine PCN (probability that the mononucleus system evolves to form a compound nucleus inside the fission saddle point) and to establish the value of Wsur (survival probability) for the given reaction experimentally. The fission excitation function...

Beginning the search for the inverse fission of uranium

Creator:: Beckerman, John R.
Abstract:: The nuclear reaction ¹⁰⁰Mo(¹²⁴Sn,xn)[superscript 224-x]U has been carried out at E[subscript cot] of 578 MeV and 634 MeV using the facilities and equipment at the Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility (HRIBF) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) in order to initiate the search for the inverse fission of uranium. Reference...

Determination of Reaction Product Cross Sections in the ¹³⁶Xe + ²⁰⁸Pb Multi-nucleon Transfer Reaction at E[subscript cm] = 450 MeV

Creator:: Barrett, J. Spencer
Abstract:: The yields of 235 projectile-like and target-like fragments from the interaction of ¹³⁶Xe with a thick target of ²⁰⁸Pb at a center-of-mass energy, E[subscript cm], of 450 MeV were measured using γ-γ-γ coincidence data from Gammasphere and off-line γ-ray spectroscopy. The results give an expansive picture of the production cross...

Atmospheric trace element abundances associated with slash burning

Creator:: Ungerer, Carl Andre
Abstract:: The atmospheric trace element abundances associated with slash burning have been measured by instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA). On site ground level samples were collected during the slash burning season using high volume samplers and a cascade impactor. In addition to the air samples, soil, wood and ashed wood samples...

Slow processes in gas-solid chromatography

Creator:: Burns, Walter Frederick
Abstract:: Gas-solid chromatography often has asymmetrical elution peaks. This is attributed to nonlinear isotherms, multi-energy adsorption sites, and slow processes. This study utilized a stopflow gas chromatograph with various NaOH and NaCl modified aluminas as adsorbents and methane as adsorbate to determine the influence of surface area and pore volume distribution...
