Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The Visual Object Tracking challenge VOT2018 is the sixth annual tracker benchmarking activity organized by the VOT initiative. Results of over eighty trackers are presented; many are state-of-the-art trackers published at major computer vision conferences or in journals in the recent years. The evaluation included the standard VOT and other popular methodologies for short-term tracking analysis and a “real-time” experiment simulating a situation where a tracker processes images as if provided by a continuously running sensor. A long-term tracking subchallenge has been introduced to the set of standard VOT sub-challenges. The new subchallenge focuses on long-term tracking properties, namely coping with target disappearance and reappearance. A new dataset has been compiled and a performance evaluation methodology that focuses on long-term tracking capabilities has been adopted. The VOT toolkit has been updated to support both standard short-term and the new long-term tracking subchallenges. Performance of the tested trackers typically by far exceeds standard baselines. The source code for most of the trackers is publicly available from the VOT page. The dataset, the evaluation kit and the results are publicly available at the challenge website (http://votchallenge.net).

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The Visual Object Tracking challenge VOT2019 is the seventh annual tracker benchmarking activity organized by the VOT initiative. Results of 81 trackers are presented; many are state-of-the-art trackers published at major computer vision conferences or in journals in the recent years. The evaluation included the standard VOT and other popular methodologies for short-term tracking analysis as well as the standard VOT methodology for long-term tracking analysis. The VOT2019 challenge was composed of five challenges focusing on different tracking domains: (i) VOT-ST2019 challenge focused on short-term tracking in RGB, (ii) VOT-RT2019 challenge focused on "real-time" short-term tracking in RGB, (iii) VOT-LT2019 focused on long-term tracking namely coping with target disappearance and reappearance. Two new challenges have been introduced: (iv) VOT-RGBT2019 challenge focused on short-term tracking in RGB and thermal imagery and (v) VOT-RGBD2019 challenge focused on long-term tracking in RGB and depth imagery. The VOT-ST2019, VOT-RT2019 and VOT-LT2019 datasets were refreshed while new datasets were introduced for VOT-RGBT2019 and VOT-RGBD2019. The VOT toolkit has been updated to support both standard short-term, long-term tracking and tracking with multi-channel imagery. Performance of the tested trackers typically by far exceeds standard baselines. The source code for most of the trackers is publicly available from the VOT page. The dataset, the evaluation kit and the results are publicly available at the challenge website(1).

Neutron-proton interaction in odd-odd nuclei from statistical analysis
- 2022
-
In: Physical Review C. - : American Physical Society (APS). - 2469-9985 .- 2469-9993. ; 106:2
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The statistical distribution and correlation relationship of the empirical neutron-proton (np) interaction are analyzed, whereby the interaction strengths are extracted from the binding energies using a known four-point formula. By comparing the correlations of the data and those from numerical simulations of the random number method, it is shown that an additional attractive np interaction persists between the last proton and last neutron in odd-odd nuclei. It provides evidence of the residual np interaction from statistical analysis. The adopted new analytical method might be a useful way to clarify the inherent correlation.

Investigation of high spin states in Cs-133
- 2018
-
In: European Physical Journal A. - : SPRINGER. - 1434-6001 .- 1434-601X. ; 54:5
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- High spin states in Cs-133 nucleus have been studied with the reaction Te-130 (Li-7, 4n) at a beam energy of 38 MeV. The level scheme has been expanded with spin up to 31/2 (h) over bar. Compared with a recent paper, ground state band and other two collective band structures at lower spin states have been confirmed. Another collective band structure at higher spin states as well as some levels and transitions are updated. Compared with the experimental data, large-scale shell model and tilted axis cranking model calculations have been carried out. The results show that the band-head configuration of yrast band based on 7/2(+) ground state and the side band built on the 5/2(+) state are a pair of pseudospin partner states with pi (f) over tilde 7/2,5/2. The negative parity band based on 1071.5 keV level originates from pi h(11/2) orbital. Another band built on 2642.9 keV level at high spin states has been proposed with oblate deformation. Other characteristics for these bands were also discussed.

Lifetime measurement of the yrast 2+ state in 118Te
- 2023

In: European Physical Journal A. - : Springer. - 1434-6001 .- 1434-601X. ; 59:12

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The electromagnetic transition probabilities of the yrast 2+ states in the midshell Te isotopes, two protons above the closed shell at Sn, are of great importance for the understanding of nuclear collectivity in these isotopes and the role played by the neutron-proton interactions and cross-shell excitations. However, the large uncertainty of the experimental data for the midshell nucleus 118Te and the missing data for 116Te make it difficult to pin down the general trend of the evolution of transition probabilities as a function of the neutron number. In this work, the lifetime of the yrast 2+ state in 118Te was measured, with the aim of reducing the uncertainty of the previous measurement. The result is τ2+ = 7.46(19) ps. In addition, the lifetime of the 4+ state was measured to be τ4+ = 4.25(23) ps. The experimental transition rates are extracted from the measured lifetimes and compared with systematic large-scale shell-model calculations. The trend of the B(E2; 0+ → 2+) values in the midshell area is in good agreement with the calculations and the calculated B4/2 ratio provide evidence for 118Te as a near perfect harmonic vibrator.

Shell-model studies relevant for the low-energy Coulomb excitation in Zn isotopes
- 2023
-
In: European Physical Journal A. - : Springer Nature. - 1434-6001 .- 1434-601X. ; 59:12
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The low-lying nuclear structure of even-even Zn isotopes ranging from 62 Zn to 70 Zn has been comprehensively examined through large scale shell model calculations. These calculations encompassed the f 5 / 2p 3 / 2 , 1 / 2g 9 / 2 (fpg) model space without any truncation, employing 56 Ni as an inert core. Two different effective interactions, JUN45 and jj44b, were utilized in these calculations. Various critical observables, including excitation energies, reduced transition strengths, and electric quadrupole moments, were computed and then evaluated in the context of existing experimental data. The configurations of the resulting wave functions were also thoroughly analyzed. Furthermore, occupation probabilities for distinct single-particle orbitals were determined, with particular attention given to the pivotal role of the g 9 / 2 orbital in elucidating the nuclear structure of heavy Zn isotopes. Additionally, rotational invariants were calculated for the ground state, shedding light on a prolate deformation in 62 Zn and 64 Zn, while suggesting moderate prolate-triaxial excitations in 66 Zn, 68 Zn, and 70 Zn. These findings hold significant relevance for interpreting the intriguing outcomes of sub-barrier Coulomb excitation experiments, offering invaluable insights into the static electromagnetic properties of the nucleus through a model-independent approach.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Gamma-ray transitions have been identified for the first time in the extremely neutron-rich (N =Z + 25) nucleus 87 Ge following nucleon knockout reactions studied at the RIBF, RIKEN, Japan.New γ-ray transitions from excited states in 85 Ge were also observed and placed in a tentative levelscheme. The exclusive parallel momentum distribution was measured for the 1/2 + state for theneutron knockout reaction leading to 85 Ge which is compared with calculated distorted wave impulseapproximation (DWIA) distributions. The 85,87 Ge results are compared with large-scale shell-modelcalculations and potential energy surface calculations based on the total Routhian surface formalism.

Multilinear analysis of the systematics of proton radioactivity
- 2023
-
In: Physical Review C. - : American Physical Society (APS). - 2469-9985 .- 2469-9993. ; 108:5
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- It is shown that the proton formation probabilities, extracted from experimental decay half-lives, can be well reproduced by a simple multilinear formula with only three parameters. The parameters obtained by considering the standard root mean square deviation and the mini-max criteria are very similar to each other. In addition, we applied Bayesian analysis to study the uncertainties of the parameters and the model predictions. In this way we explain the systematics of proton decay half-lives. The multilinearity of the model also provides a way to classify the relative hindrance of different proton decays. All the recent experimental data agree very well with the model prediction. Our Bayesian analysis suggests that those new data do help constrain the uncertainty of the model parameters.

alpha decay half-life estimation and uncertainty analysis
- 2020

In: Physical Review C. - : AMER PHYSICAL SOC. - 2469-9985 .- 2469-9993. ; 101:5

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Background: alpha decay is one of the most important decay modes of atomic nuclei. The half-life of alpha decay provides valuable information for nuclear structure study. Many theoretical models and empirical formulas have been suggested to describe the half-life of alpha decay as a function of decay energy (Q(alpha)), atomic number (Z), nucleon number (A), and other related variables. However, the analysis of theoretical uncertainty is rarely done for those alpha decay models. Purpose: We aim to perform a systematic and detailed study on the theoretical uncertainty of existing alpha decay formulas based on statistical methods. Methods: The nonparametric bootstrap method is used to evaluate the uncertainties of two alpha decay formulas, the universal decay law (UDL) and the new Geiger-Nuttall law (NGNL). Such a method can simultaneously obtain the uncertainty of each parameter, the correlation between each pair of parameters, and the total, statistical, and systematic uncertainties of each formula. Both even-even (ee) nuclei and odd-A (oA) nuclei are used in the analysis. The collected data are separated into three parts: ee nuclei, oA nuclei without spin or parity change (oA_nc), and oA nuclei with spin and/or parity change (oA_c). Based on the residues between observed data and corresponding calculations, the statistical and systematic uncertainties are decomposed from the total uncertainty, from which one can clarify the effects from the shell structure, pairing, and angular momentum change on describing alpha decay half-life. Results: If N > 126 and N <= 126 nuclei are considered together, the systematic uncertainty of residues between observed and predicted half-lives are larger than if those groups are considered separately. Without a shell correction term, a much larger systematic uncertainty is found if parameters obtained for N <= 126 nuclei are used to describe the half-lives of N > 126 nuclei. Based on the Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization condition and simple assumptions, a detailed shell correction term is obtained for N > 126 nuclei, for which the value is similar to that in NGNL. A global hindrance on the alpha decay process is found in oA_nc (oA_c) nuclei compared with ee (oA_nc) nuclei. If parameters obtained from ee (oA_nc) nuclei are used, the half-lives of oA_nc (oA_c) nuclei are generally underestimated with large systematic uncertainties, which can be related to the contribution of pairing effect and angular momentum. The parameter of angular momentum term in NGNL is obtained with large uncertainty and very sensitive to the selections of the dataset. The recently observed superallowed decay from Te-104 to Sn-100 is also discussed based on uncertainty analysis. Conclusions: The theoretical uncertainty of existing alpha decay formulas is successfully evaluated by the nonparametric bootstrap method, which simultaneously indicates the important effect in alpha decay, such as the shell effect and the pairing effect. In addition, statistical results show strong correlations between the parameters of the second and third terms in both UDL and NGNL, which demands further investigations.

Isospin Properties of Nuclear Pair Correlations from the Level Structure of the Self-Conjugate Nucleus Ru 88
- 2020
-
In: Physical Review Letters. - : American Physical Society (APS). - 0031-9007 .- 1079-7114. ; 124:6
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The low-lying energy spectrum of the extremely neutron-deficient self-conjugate (N = Z) nuclide 88Ru has been measured using the combination of the Advanced Gamma Tracking Array (AGATA)spectrometer, the NEDA, and Neutron Wall neutron detector arrays, and the DIAMANT charged particle detector array. Excited states in 88 Ru were populated via the 54 Feð 36 Ar; 2nγÞ 88 Ru fusion-evaporationreaction at the Grand Accélérateur National d’Ions Lourds (GANIL) accelerator complex. The observed γ-ray cascade is assigned to 88 Ru using clean prompt γ-γ-2-neutron coincidences in anticoincidence with the detection of charged particles, confirming and extending the previously assigned sequence of low-lying excited states. It is consistent with a moderately deformed rotating system exhibiting a band crossing at a rotational frequency that is significantly higher than standard theoretical predictions with isovector pairing, as well as observations in neighboring N > Z nuclides. The direct observation of such a “delayed” rotational alignment in a deformed N 1⁄4 Z nucleus is in agreement with theoretical predictions related to the presence of strong isoscalar neutron-proton pair correlations.
