Electromagnetic processes of nuclear excitation: from direct photoabsorption to free electron and muon capture

In the vast expanse of the Universe and on our planet, nuclei exist in a state of excitement. These excited nuclear states (isomers) can persist for varying periods, from fractions of a second to billions of years and beyond, before decaying to their groun ...

Measuring the electron energy distribution in tokamak plasmas from polarized electron cyclotron radiation

Arsène Stéphane Tema Biwole

In this doctoral thesis, a promising technique has been used for the measurement of non-thermal electrons in TCV. The technique employs a Vertical viewing ECE to more easily discriminate the radiation according to the energy of the electrons. Successful ...

Nuclear Excitation by Free Muon Capture

Fabrizio Carbone, Ivan Madan, Simone Gargiulo

Efficient excitation of nuclei via exchange of a real or virtual photon has a fundamental importance for nuclear science and technology development. Here, we present a mechanism of nuclear excitation based on the capture of a free muon into the atomic orbi ...

Structural Measures as Guides to Ultrastable States in Overjammed Packings

Sangwoo Kim

Jammed, disordered packings of given sets of particles possess a multitude of equilibrium states with different mechanical properties. Identifying and constructing desired states, e.g., of superior stability, is a complex task. Here, we show that in two-di ...

Ultrafast Resonant Interatomic Coulombic Decay Induced by Quantum Fluid Dynamics

Marcel Drabbels, Andrew Daniel Bonnar Clark, Verónica Oliver Álvarez de Lara, Daniela Rupp

Interatomic processes play a crucial role in weakly bound complexes exposed to ionizing radiation; therefore, gaining a thorough understanding of their efficiency is of fundamental importance. Here, we directly measure the timescale of interatomic Coulombi ...
