9402761 Kolata This grant will support a wide-ranging program of basic research in the areas of nuclear reactions, nuclear structure, and nuclear astrophysics to be conducted in the Nuclear Structure Laboratory of the University of Notre Dame, and at other major nuclear research facilities in the US and elsewhere. The areas of interest include the study of the synthesis of heavy elements in the Big Bang and in explosive hydrogen-burning processes, the production and use of radioactive nuclear beams, and the study of exotic nuclear systems such as superdeformed and hyperdeformed states and the "halo" nuclei that occur near the neutron- (and possibly the proton-) drip line. Multiphonon vibrations in deformed nuclei, and the "giant resonance" phenomenon, will also be investigated. Finally, a new component, recently added to the research programs at the laboratory, is the study of weak interactions and fundamental processes in nuclear systems. The research program at the Notre Dame Nuclear Structure Laboratory has emphasized extensive collaboration with experimental and theoretical physicists at other universities. This mode of operation will continue under the proposed grant, as will our own use of such new or anticipated research tools as Gammashpere, the radioactive nuclear beam facility at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and the S800 spectrograph at Michigan State University.

9402761 Kolata这笔赠款将支持核反应，核结构和核天体物理学领域的广泛基础研究计划，将在圣母大学核结构实验室以及美国和其他地方的其他主要核研究设施进行。 感兴趣的领域包括研究大爆炸和爆炸性氢燃烧过程中重元素的合成，放射性核束的生产和使用，以及研究奇异的核系统，如超变形和超变形状态以及发生在中子（可能还有质子）滴线附近的“晕”核。 变形核中的多声子振动和“巨共振”现象也将被研究。 最后，一个新的组成部分，最近增加了在实验室的研究计划，是弱相互作用和核系统中的基本过程的研究。 圣母大学核结构实验室的研究计划强调与其他大学的实验和理论物理学家进行广泛的合作。 在拟议的拨款下，这种操作模式将继续下去，我们自己使用的新的或预期的研究工具，如Gammashpere，橡树岭国家实验室的放射性核束设施，以及密歇根州立大学的S800摄谱仪也将继续下去。
