Times Cited Count:47 Percentile:94.65(Biology)We propose a new Standard DNA Damage (SDD) data format to unify the interface between the simulation of damage induction in DNA and the biological modelling of DNA repair processes, and introduce the effect of the environment (molecular oxygen or other compounds) as a flexible parameter. Such a standard greatly facilitates inter-model comparisons, providing an ideal environment to tease out model assumptions and identify persistent, underlying mechanisms. Through inter-model comparisons, this unified standard has the potential to greatly advance our understanding of the underlying mechanisms of radiation-induced DNA damage and the resulting observable biological effects when radiation parameters and/or environmental conditions change.

Times Cited Count:14 Percentile:81.7(Chemistry, Analytical)In a recent international exercise, 10 international nuclear forensics laboratories successfully performed radiochronometry on three low enriched uranium oxide samples, providing 12 analytical results using three different parent-daughter pairs serving as independent chronometers. The vast majority of the results were consistent with one another and consistent with the known processing history of the materials. In general, for these particular samples, mass spectrometry gave more accurate and more precise analytical results than decay counting measurements. In addition, the concordance of the U-Pa and U-Th chronometers confirmed the validity of the age dating assumptions, increasing confidence in the resulting conclusions.

Times Cited Count:17 Percentile:66.88(Physics, Nuclear)High spin states of Pd have been studied through in-beam -ray spectroscopy by using the reaction Zn (Cl, 13). The band based on the neutron orbital has been extended to higher-spin states, and the band based on the neutron orbital has been somewhat revised. Many transitions decaying to these bands have been observed and consequently, several side bands have been established. Electric dipole transitions from the band to the band have been also observed. The structure of the band was discussed from the viewpoint of "antimagnetic rotation" based on a semiclassical particle plus rotor model taking neutron alignments into account.

Times Cited Count:65 Percentile:94.74(Physics, Nuclear)Heavy neutron-rich nuclei were populated via the fragmentation of a E/A=1 GeV Pb beam. Secondary fragments were separated and identified and subsequently implanted in a passive stopper. By the detection of delayed rays, isomeric decays associated with these nuclei have been identified. A total of 49 isomers were detected, with the majority of them observed for the first time. Possible level schemes are constructed and the structure of the nuclei discussed. To aid the interpretation, shell-model as well as BCS calculations were performed.

The ground-state band has properties compatible with oblate deformation. The evolution of the structure of Os isotopes characterized by sudden prolate-oblate shape change is discussed and contrasted with the smooth change known in the Pt chain.

Times Cited Count:25 Percentile:79.09(Astronomy & Astrophysics)The low-lying structures of the self-conjugate () nuclei Nb and Tc have been investigated using isomeric-decay spectroscopy following the projectile fragmentation of a Ag beam. These represent the heaviest odd-odd nuclei in which internal decays have been identified to date. The resulting level schemes shed light on the shape evolution along the line between the doubly-magic systems Ni and Sn and support a preference for states in odd-odd nuclei at low excitation energies associated with a neutron-proton pairing gap. Comparison with Projected Shell Model calculations suggests that the decay in Nb may be interpreted as an isospin-changing isomer.

Times Cited Count:11 Percentile:55.68(Physics, Multidisciplinary)Relativistic energy projectile fragmentation of Pb has been used to produce a range of exotic nuclei. The nuclei of interest were studied by detecting delayed rays following the decay of isomeric states. Experimental information on the excited states of the neutron-rich Pt N=126 nucleus, following internal decay of two isomeric states, was obtained for the first time. In addition, decays from the previously reported isomeric and states in Tb and Gd, respectively, have been observed. These isomeric decays represent the highest discrete states observed to date following a prejectile fragmentation reaction, and opens up the possibilty of doing "high-spin physics" using this technique.

RISING constitutes a major new experimental program in European nuclear structure physics research aimed at using relativistic energy (typically around 1 GeV per nucleon) projectile fragmentation reactions to populate nuclei with highly exotic proton-to-neutron ratios compared to the line of beta stability. In its high-efficiency stopped beam configuration, the RISING -ray spectrometer consists of 105 individual germanium crystals which view a focal plane in which the exotic nuclei are brought to rest. Here, decays from metastable states with half-lives in the nano to milliseconds range can be observed. Results of initial commissioning experiments are also shown and details of the planned future experimental program are given.

Seaborgium isotopes were produced in the fusion reaction Si + U as evaporation residues (ERs), and the cross sections were determined. The experiment was carried out at GSI in Darmstadt, Germany. At the center-of-mass energy of E= 144 MeV, three decay chains starting from Sg were observed, and the corresponding ER cross section was determined to be 67 pb. At the sub-barrier energy of E= 133 MeV, three spontaneous fission events of a new isotope Sg were detected. The cross section was 10 pb. The half-life of Sg was determined to be 120 ms. The ER cross sections were compared with a statistical model calculation. In the fusion process, the coupled channel calculation taking into account the prolate deformation of U was adopted to determine the capture cross section. The calculated capture cross section agrees well with the fission cross section of Si + U obtained at the JAEA tandem accelerator. The measured cross section of Sg at the sub-barrier energy is factor 10 larger than the calculation based on the one-dimensional model in the fusion process, showing the fusion enhancement caused by the deformation of U. However, disagreement with the calculation suggests the presence of quasi-fission channel. At the above barrier energy of E = 144 MeV, the measured cross section is well reproduced by the calculation. This means that the interaction of Si at the equotorial side of U has advantage on the fusion process.
