Future directions & challenges in rare-isotope decay experiments
- Corina Andreoiu (Simon Fraser University)
Beta-delayed neutron emission is an important decay mode for very neutron-rich nuclei. For the highly asymmetric nuclei, nuclear structure and large decay energies can affect neutron emission probabilities.
Experiments at the ISOLDE Decay Station (IDS) and the FRIB Decay Station Initiator (FDSi) provided a wealth of new data, leading to spectroscopy of beta-delayed two-neutron emission...
Beta-decay spectroscopy is a uniquely powerful probe, permitting often first experimental access to the excited states of exotic nuclei, but also a breadth of rich and detailed information when statistics permits. The experimental facilities at TRIUMF, combined with new beams delivered from ARIEL, are an exciting combination for future decay measurements. I will discuss some of the...
