Complex structural effects in the nuclide production from the projectile fragmentation of 1 A GeV U nuclei in a titanium target, manifested as an even-odd effect, are reported. The structure seems to be insensitive to the excitation energy induced in the reaction. This is in contrast to the prominent structural features found in nuclear fission and in transfer reactions, which gradually disappe...

Nuclear level densities (NLDs) are key ingredients in calculations of neutron capture rates for rich isotopes nuclear astrophysics applications. Available experimental NLDs limited mainly to nuclei near stability. Therefore, theoretical models employed predict the nuclei. Here we present a methodology calculating spin- and parity- dependent using methods statistical spectroscopy, based on Shell...

A simple description for obtaining the parity distribution of nuclear levels in the pf + g9/2 shell as a function of excitation energy was recently derived. We implement this in a global nuclear level density model. In the framework of the statistical model, cross sections and astrophysical reaction rates are calculated in the Fe region and compared to rates obtained with the common assumption ...

background: for xenograft models of triple-negative breast cancer (tnbc) to be valuable in development of molecularly-targeted drugs, careful characterization is essential to their validation. the present study aimed to validate the tnbc xenograft model with a specific focus on angiogenesis. methods : twelve tnbc xenograft tumors and 12 human breast cancer tumors (htnbc) were included in this s...

Statistical correlations of nuclear many-body states are explored in the Odls shell model as a function of the strength of residual interactions. Model independent predictions for correlation functions and distributions, developed from parametric random-matrix theory, are found to describe the observed nuclear behavior for excited states. In particular, we find that correlations generally decre...

We present calculations of nuclear level densities that are based upon the detailed microphysics of the interacting shell model yet are also computationally tractable. To do this, we combine in a novel fashion several previously disparate ideas from statistical spectroscopy, namely partitioning of the model space into subspaces, analytic calculations of moments up to fourth order directly from ...

The evaluation of the subsaturation nuclear equation state at finite temperature requires a proper counting internal partition sum nuclei which are immersed in background their continuum states. This classical statistical problem is addressed within self-consistent mean-field approximation, naturally accounts for isospin and effective mass effects density free energy decomposed into bulk surfac...
