New Identification of 4QPaleoGen-Exodl (4Q11) Fragments

This article proposes new identifications of scroll fragments from 4Qpaleo-Gen-Exodl, some of which have been included in the official edition and others that have not been associated with the scroll so far. The fragments are transcribed, identified, and in some cases joined with further scroll fragments. The study is accompanied by a discussion on the implications of the new identifications

More red Ink on the Qumran manuscript 11Q22

Red ink on a new IAA photograph confirms that 11Q22 used red ink to write the tetragrammaton.status: publishe

More red ink on the Qumran manuscript 11Q22

This article presents a new case of a Qumran fragment,11Q22 fragment 6, employing red ink, a very rare feature so far. While the word is fragmentary, the red ink was plausibly for a nomen sacrum. This find confirms indirectly the hypothesis of the editio princeps that fragment 1 of the same scroll, which is lost, also used red ink for a nomen sacrum. The rest of the paper contextualizes this finding

Production cross-sections of proton-rich 70Ge fragments and the decay of 57Zn and 61Ge

Proton-rich isotopes of zinc and germanium, 57Zn and 61Ge, have been produced by fragmentation of a 70Ge beam at the LISE3 facility of GANIL. Their main decay characteristics have been studied after implantation in a double-sided silicon strip detector. In addition, the production cross-sections of proton-rich isotopes in the copper-to-germanium region have been determined. These cross-sections are much lower than predicted by the EPAX formula. These findings question to some extent the production rates expected for present and future fragmentation facilities
