Experimental Nuclear Science

我们建议使用6-He、8-Li、7-Be、8-B和其他原子核的短寿命次级束来研究低能核反应，这些反应大多与核天体物理有关。这些将被用来研究与太阳中微子的表观亏损有关的核反应，以及宇宙中的“失踪质量”问题。这些实验将利用密歇根大学开发的一种独特的装置，该装置由两个大型超导磁体组成，并将继续进一步开发该装置的技术，该装置在其他领域也有应用，如核医学。额外的相关实验工作将在国家超导回旋加速器实验室(密歇根州E·兰辛)和德克萨斯AM回旋加速器实验室进行，以获得资金许可。

We propose to study low-energy nuclear reactions, most related to nuclearastrophysics, using short-lived secondary beams of 6-He, 8-Li, 7-Be, 8-B,and other nuclei. These will be used to study nuclear reactions related tothe apparent deficit of solar neutrinos, and the "missing mass" problem inthe Universe. The experiments will utilize a unique UM-developed apparatusconsisting of two large superconducting magnets and will continue furthertechnical developments of the device, which also has applications in otherfields such as nuclear medicine. Additional related experimental work, asfunding permits, will be done at the National Superconducting CyclotronLaboratory (E. Lansing, MI), and the Texas AM Cyclotron Laboratory.
