The rp-process and new measurements of beta-delayed proton decay of light Ag and Cd isotopes
Recent network calculations suggest that a high temperature rp-process could
explain the abundances of light Mo and Ru isotopes, which have long challenged
models of p-process nuclide production. Important ingredients to network
calculations involving unstable nuclei near and at the proton drip line are
-halflives and decay modes, i.e., whether or not -delayed proton
decay takes place. Of particular importance to these network calculation are
the proton-rich isotopes Ag, Ag, Cd and Cd. We
report on recent measurements of -delayed proton branching ratios for
Ag, Ag, and Cd at the on-line mass separator at GSI.Comment: 4 pages, uses espcrc1.sty. Proceedings of the 4th International

Hindered E4 decay of the 12+ yrast trap in 52Fe
AbstractThe γ decay of the 12+ yrast trap in 52Fe has been measured for the first time. The two E4 γ-branches to the 8+ states are hindered with respect to other B(E4) reduced transition probabilities measured in the f7/2 shell. The interpretation of the data is given in the full pf shell model framework, comparing the results obtained with different residual interactions. It is shown that measurements of hexadecapole transition probabilities constitute a powerful tool in discriminating the correct configuration of the involved wavefunctions

Fine structure of the Gamow-Teller resonance revealed in the decay of Ho-150 2(-) isomer
The γ rays following the 72s 150Ho 2- Gamow-Teller β decay have been investigated with the CLUSTER CUBE setup, an array of six EUROBALL CLUSTER Ge detectors in close cubic geometry, providing a γ ray detection sensitivity of 2×10-5 per β-parent decay for γ-ray energies up to 5 MeV. The fine structure of the Gamow-Teller resonance at 4.4-MeV excitation in 150Dy has been studied. The resolved levels are compared with Shell Model predictions
Determination of Thermal Diffusivity of Austenitic Steel Using Pulsed Infrared Thermography
The simple method of determining thermal diffusivity of solid materials at room temperature using the pulsed infrared thermography (IRT) is proposed. The theoretical basis of the method and experimental results are presented. The study was conducted on austenitic steel 316L. Theobtained results show that the thermal diffusivity value of the tested steel determined by means of pulsed infrared thermography is very approximate to the values given in the literature, obtained by using more complicated methods. The differences between these values are 0.5%

Zaprezentowane zostały teoretyczne podstawy metody oraz wyniki badań doświadczalnych. Badanie przeprowadzono dla stali austenitycznej 316L. Otrzymane rezultaty pokazują, że wyznaczona wartość dyfuzyjności cieplnej badanej stali jest bardzo bliska wartościom podanym w literaturze, otrzymanym za pomocą bardziej skomplikowanych metod. Różnica między tymi wartościami sięga zaledwie 0,5%
