Measurement of magnetic dipole strength in 40Ar between 9.3 and 10.3 MeV excitation energy and impact on neutral current neutrino interaction

Journal Article Physical Review C · November 24, 2025 The magnetic dipole strength B(M1↑) of 40Ar was measured in the excitation energy range between 9.3 and 10.3 MeV. The nuclear resonance fluorescence technique was used with monoenergetic, linearly polarized incident photon beams. The new data in ... Full text Cite

Energy dependence of chain fission product yields from neutron-induced fission of 235U, 238U, and 239Pu

Journal Article Nuclear Data Sheets · June 1, 2025 The lack of completeness and systematic studies of cumulative fission product yield (FPY) from the three major actinides of 235U, 238U, and 239Pu, over a broad energy range, was the primary motivation for the LLNL-LANL-TUNL ... Full text Cite

Precise measurements of the γ -ray intensities following the β decay of Ce 144 and Nd 147

Journal Article Physical Review C · August 1, 2024 For many fission products, the γ rays emitted following β decay provide an easily detectable signature that can be used to identify their quantities and distributions in a sample. As a result, γ-ray spectroscopy is often exploited to study fission-product ... Full text Cite
