- The electron-ion scattering experiment ELISe is part of the installations envisaged at the new experimental storage ring at the International Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) in Darmstadt, Germany. It offers an unique opportunity to use electrons as probe in investigations of the structure of exotic nuclei. The conceptual design and the scientific challenges of ELISe are presented.

Nuclear astrophysics with radioactive ions at FAIR
- 2016
-
In: Journal of Physics: Conference Series. - : IOP Publishing. - 1742-6588 .- 1742-6596. ; 665:1
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The nucleosynthesis of elements beyond iron is dominated by neutron captures in the s and r processes. However, 32 stable, proton-rich isotopes cannot be formed during those processes, because they are shielded from the s-process flow and r-process beta-decay chains. These nuclei are attributed to the p and rp process. For all those processes, current research in nuclear astrophysics addresses the need for more precise reaction data involving radioactive isotopes. Depending on the particular reaction, direct or inverse kinematics, forward or time-reversed direction are investigated to determine or at least to constrain the desired reaction cross sections. The Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) will offer unique, unprecedented opportunities to investigate many of the important reactions. The high yield of radioactive isotopes, even far away from the valley of stability, allows the investigation of isotopes involved in processes as exotic as the r or rp processes.

Polarization transfer in the He-4((e)over-right-arrow,e '(p)over-right-arrow)H-3 reaction up to Q(2)=2.6 (GeV/c)(2)
- 2003
-
In: Physical Review Letters. - 1079-7114. ; 91:5: 052301
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We have measured the proton recoil polarization in the He-4((e) over right arrow ,e(')(p) over right arrow)H-4 reaction at Q(2)=0.5, 1.0, 1.6, and 2.6 (GeV/c)(2). The measured ratio of polarization transfer coefficients differs from a fully relativistic calculation, favoring the inclusion of a medium modification of the proton form factors predicted by a quark-meson coupling model. In addition, the measured induced polarizations agree reasonably well with the fully relativistic calculation indicating that the treatment of final-state interactions is under control.

Global patterns of tectonic stress
- 1989
-
In: Nature. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 0028-0836 .- 1476-4687. ; 341:6240, s. 291-298
-
Research review (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Regional patterns of present-day tectonic stress can be used to evaluate the forces acting on the lithosphere and to investigate intraplate seismicity. Most intraplate regions are characterized by a compressional stress regime; extension is limited almost entirely to thermally uplifted regions. In several plates the maximum horizontal stress is subparallel to the direction of absolute plate motion, suggesting that the forces driving the plates also dominate the stress distribution in the plate interior.

(e,e'p) reaction at true quasielastic kinematics in 16O, 12C, and 208Pb at JLab
- 2009

In: La Rabida 2009, International Scientific Meeting on Nuclear Physics: Basic Concepts in Nuclear Physics : Theory Experiements and Applications - Theory Experiements and Applications. - : AIP. ; , s. 225-226

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The reactions 16O(e,e'p) 15N, 208Pb(e,e'p) 207Tl and 12C(e,e'p) 11B were measured in experiments E00-102 and E06-007 performed at JLab (VA, USA) at true quasielastic kinematics (xB = 1) with constant energy (ω) and momentum (q) transferred over a wide pmiss range. These experiments address several open issues in nuclear structure such as the role of relativity and of long-range correlations in the description of nuclei as well as a possible dependence of the spectroscopic factors on Q2. Preliminary experimental results and theoretical predictions from a fully relativistic DWIA model carefully averaged over the experimental acceptances are shown.

Candy Wrapper for the Earth's Inner Core
- 2013
-
In: Scientific Reports. - : Nature Publishing Group. - 2045-2322. ; 3, s. 2096-
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Recent global expansion of seismic data motivated a number of seismological studies of the Earth's inner core that proposed the existence of increasingly complex structure and anisotropy. In the meantime, new hypotheses of dynamic mechanisms have been put forward to interpret seismological results. Here, the nature of hemispherical dichotomy and anisotropy is re-investigated by bridging the observations of PKP(bc-df) differential travel-times with the iron bcc/hcp elastic properties computed from first-principles methods. The Candy Wrapper velocity model introduced here accounts for a dynamic picture of the inner core (i.e., the eastward drift of material), where different iron crystal shapes can be stabilized at the two hemispheres. We show that seismological data are best explained by a rather complicated, mosaic-like, structure of the inner core, where well-separated patches of different iron crystals compose the anisotropic western hemispherical region, and a conglomerate of almost indistinguishable iron phases builds-up the weakly anisotropic eastern side.

An ab initio study of S-substituted iron-nickel-silicon alloy at the Earth's inner core pressure
- 2008
-
In: High Pressure Research. - : Informa UK Limited. - 0895-7959 .- 1477-2299. ; 28:4, s. 437-441
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The thermodynamic stability of S-substituting Si into a bcc Fe0.80Ni0.05SxSi(0.15-x) random alloy, with x=0.025 n (n=0-- 4), was investigated up to 350GPa by using an ab initio density functional method based on the full charge density-exact muffin-tin orbital-coherent potential approximation scheme. From the analysis of the calculated H values, we suggest that the FeNiSSi stoichiometry with zero sulphur content always behaves as the most stable system along the whole pressure range of 0-350GPa. As a general tendency, we found that the alloys with 6.8-8.1wt.% Si are energetically more stable than those with lower silicon content, thus supporting the dissolution mechanism for the Earth's inner core compositional model.
