Laser spectroscopy near exotic doubly-magic nuclei to benchmark state-of-the art nuclear theories. KU Leuven
This project aims at measuring the properties of the cornerstones in
the nuclear chart: doubly-magic nuclei and their immediate
neighbors, in particular for those very far from stability (24O, 54Ca,
78Ni, 100Sn, 132Sn). Doubly-magic nuclei appear all over the
nuclear chart and those close to stability (16O, 40Ca and 48Ca, 56Ni
and 208Pb) have been studied in great detail and helped in
understanding the nuclear ...
