Abstract:Motivated primarily by the large uncertainties in the thermonuclear rate of the 30 P(p, γ) 31 S reaction that limit our understanding of classical novae, we carried out lifetime measurements of 31 S excited states using the Doppler Shift Lifetimes (DSL) facility at the TRIUMF Isotope Separator and Accelerator (ISAC-II) facility. The 31 S excited states were populated by the 3 He( 32 S, α) 31 S reaction. The deexcitation γ rays were detected by a clover-type high-purity germanium detector in coincidence with th… Show more
