CALET Results after Three Years on Orbit on the International Space Station

Physics of Atomic Nuclei - The CALorimetric Electron Telescope (CALET) is an astroparticle physics experiment installed on the International Space Station since August 2015. The CALET mission was...     

A new study of 25Mg(\alpha,n) 28Si angular distributions at E_{\alpha} =3-5 MeV

Heavy neutron-rich nuclei close to N = 126 were produced by fragmentation of a 1A GeV ²⁰⁸Pb beam at the FRS at GSI. The β-decay half-lives of 7 nuclides have been determined using a novel numerical analysis method. The half-lives of ^202,199Ir, ^200,199Os and ¹⁹⁶Re are reported for the first time. The comparison of the data with model calculations provides indications on the importance of first-forbidden transitions on the β-decay of nuclei around N = 126 and Z < 82.
