stable and unstable nuclei, along with related electroweak, decay, and reaction processes …

[HTML][HTML] Theory of deuteron stripping and pick-up reactions for nuclear structure studies

NK Timofeyuk, RC Johnson - Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics, 2020 - Elsevier
Deuteron stripping and pick-up experiments-(d, p) and (p, d)-have been used for a long time
to study the structure of nuclei. Today these experiments are often carried out in inverse …

[HTML][HTML] Binding-energy independence of reduced spectroscopic strengths derived from (p, 2p) and (p, pn) reactions with nitrogen and oxygen isotopes

M Gómez-Ramos, AM Moro - Physics Letters B, 2018 - Elsevier
A campaign of intermediate energy (300–450 MeV/u) proton-induced nucleon knockout

Uncertainty quantification for optical model parameters

AE Lovell, FM Nunes, J Sarich, SM Wild - Physical Review C, 2017 - APS
Background: Although uncertainty quantification has been making its way into nuclear
theory, these methods have yet to be explored in the context of reaction theory. For example …

Transfer reactions in nuclear astrophysics

DW Bardayan - Journal of Physics G: Nuclear and Particle …, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
To a high degree many aspects of the large-scale behavior of objects in the Universe are
governed by the underlying nuclear physics. In fact the shell structure of nuclear physics is …

Constraining transfer cross sections using Bayes' theorem

AE Lovell, FM Nunes - Physical Review C, 2018 - APS
