Operation of the Nuclear Structure Research Laboratory

这笔赠款用于支助罗彻斯特大学核结构研究实验室1993- 1994历年的运作。该研究利用来自升级的MP串联范德格拉夫加速器的重离子束和强大的设备库，如反冲质谱仪，分裂极磁谱仪，伽玛射线探测器阵列和加速器质谱系统，用于核科学的广泛计划。高自旋和同位旋核结构的研究包括核形状的测量、对相关、正常和超变形态光谱以及核矩。核反应程序包括研究重离子反应中的破裂、预平衡过程和转移。重离子碰撞中电子-正电子发射的研究是该计划的另一个主要推力。加速器质谱计划涵盖了广泛的科学领域，在环境科学中有着重要的应用。

This grant if for support of the operation of the University of Rochester's Nuclear Structure Research Laboratory for the calendar years 1993-94. The research exploits heavy-ion beams from the upgraded MP tandem Van de Graaff accelerator and a powerful arsenal of equipment such as the Recoil Mass Spectrometer, split-pole magnetic spectrometer, gamma-ray detector array and accelerator mass spectrometry system, for a broad program in nuclear science. The investigations of nuclear structure at high spin and isospin involve measurements of nuclear shapes, pairing correlations, spectroscopy of normal and superdeformed states, and nuclear moments. The nuclear reaction programs involve studies of breakup, pre-equilibrium processes, and transfer in heavy-ion reactions. A study of electron- positron emission in heavy-ion collisions is another major thrust of the program. The accelerator mass spectrometry program encompasses a wide range of science with important applications to environmental science.
