TIARA - Surrey Emergency Bridging Funding

这项请求是根据珍妮特·塞德宣布的核物理安排提供紧急过渡资金。头饰项目是由英国设计和领导的，头饰阵列已准备好在法国的GANIL/螺旋使用。萨里是该项目的牵头机构。GANIL PAC已经批准了一系列5个主要实验，以研究非常丰富的中子核的幻数和壳层结构的变化，以及其他结构研究，并计划于2007年运行。其中三个实验的主要发言人来自tiara。所有的实验都将通过汇集Tiara和在该领域工作的另一个主要团体MUST2的设备和人员来进行。从2007年9月开始的这项活动是朝着建立一个主要的国际合作学习转移迈出的重要的第一步，英国在其中发挥了主导作用。此外，tiara的合作还批准在2007年底进行一项实验，以延长先前的螺旋工作，并在加拿大TRIUMF进行后续研究，使用基于tiara概念的设备，并包括tiara贡献的新设计。这将是在TRIUMF进行的第一次此类实验，委员会预计它将发展成为该设施的一个重要方案。由于资助机制的变化，英国没有博士后支持来支持这些预定实验的建立和运行，但这对保持英国的领导地位至关重要。对学术旅行的支持和一些技术援助也是必要的。

This request is for emergency bridging funding under the arrangements announced for nuclear physics by Janet Seed. The TIARA project is designed and led by the UK and the TIARA array is ready for use at GANIL/SPIRAL in France. Surrey is the lead institution in the project. A series of 5 major experiments to investigate the changes in magic numbers and shell structure for very neutron rich nuclei, and other structural studies, has been approved by the GANIL PAC and is scheduled for running in 2007. Three of these experiments have principal spokespersons from TIARA. All of the experiments will be performed by bringing together equipment and personnel of TIARA and the other major group working in this area, MUST2. This campaign starting in September 2007 represents the first major step towards the building of a major international collaboration to study transfer, with the UK in a leading role. In addition, the TIARA collaboration has an experiment approved for running in late 2007 to extend previous SPIRAL work with a follow-up study at TRIUMF in Canada, using equipment based on the TIARA concept and including new designs contributed by TIARA. This will be the first experiment of its kind in TRIUMF and the PAC anticipated it developing into an important programme for the facility. Due to the changes in funding mechanisms, no postdoctoral support is available to be allocated from the UK to support the setting up and running of these scheduled experiments, but this is vital to maintain UK leadership. Support for academic travel and some technical assistance is also needed.
