Collectivity in Heavy Nuclei in the Shell Model Monte Carlo Approach
(EDP Sciences, 2014)
The microscopic description of collectivity in heavy nuclei in the framework of the configuration-interaction shell model has been a major challenge. The size of the model space required for the description of heavy nuclei ...
Level Densities of Heavy Nuclei in the Shell Model Monte Carlo Approach
(EDP Sciences, 2016)
Nuclear level densities are necessary input to the Hauser-Feshbach theory of compound nuclear reactions. However the microscopic calculation of level densities in the presence of correlations is a challenging many-body ...
Polymer-Ceramic Nanocomposites
(Spie-Int Soc Optical Engineering, 2009)
Steady state fluorescence (SSF) and photon transmission (PT) techniques were used for studying film formation from TiO2 and Al2O3 covered polystyrene (PS) latex particles. These films were annealed at elevated temperatures ...
Phase Transitions in Pure and Hybrid Hydrogels: A Fluorescence Study
(Wiley, 2009)
Recent observations on phase transitions around the critical point showed that the critical exponents differed drastically from percolation results and classical results for pure hydrogel systems depending on monomer ...
Critical Exponents of Thermal Phase Transitions of kappa-Carrageenan in Various Salt Solutions
(Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 2009)
The steady state fluorescence (SSF) technique was employed to study the phase transitions Of kappa-carrageenan in NaCl and KCl solutions. Pyranine was used as a fluorescence probe for monitoring these transitions. Scattered ...
Microscopic nuclear level densities by the shell model Monte Carlo method
(Cern, 2015)
The configuration-interaction shell model approach provides an attractive framework for the calculation of nuclear level densities in the presence of correlations but the large dimensionality of the model space has hindered ...
Atomic collisions and free lepton pair production
(2005)
In this work we have calculated the total cross sections of electron-positron pair production for the collisions of fully stripped gold ions for various energies. We have also compared our calculation with other methods.
Signatures of phase transitions in nuclei at finite excitation energies
(Amer Inst Physics, 2012)
The mean-field approximation predicts pairing and shape phase transitions in nuclei as a function of temperature or excitation energy. However in the finite nucleus the singularities of these phase transitions are smoothed ...
Recent developments in the shell model Monte Carlo approach to nuclei
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2012)
The shell model Monte Carlo (SMMC) approach provides a powerful method for the microscopic calculation of statistical and collective nuclear properties in model spaces that are many orders of magnitude larger than those ...
Percolation and Film Formation Behaviors of MWNT/PS Nanocomposites
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2011)
This study involves the investigation of film formation and electrical conductivity properties of polystrene (PS) latex/multi-walled Carbon nanotube (MWNT) composites. Films prepared from PS/MWNT mixtures with different ...
