  1. Nuclear Data Center NetworkWho are we?What can we do for you? Victoria McLane1,3 Naohiko Otuka2,3 1National Nuclear Data Center Brookhaven National Laboratory 2Nuclear Data Center Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute 3Nuclear Theory Group Hokkaido University Recent Advances in Astrophysics and Planetary Science, March 1-2, 2005, Sapporo, Japan

  2. Nuclear Data for Astrophysics Nuclear data required for studies of: • Early universe – “Big Bang”, • Stellar physics: • novae, supernovae, Red giants, • Interstellar medium.

  3. Nuclear Data for Astrophysics Codes for modeling these systems require massive amounts of nuclear data • Reaction rates. • Energy released in nuclear reactions. • Structural properties of relevant nuclei.

  4. Nuclear Data for Astrophysics Reaction rate: ‹σ·v› Cross section times ion velocity averaged over Maxwell-Bolzmann distribution of relative ion velocity. • Basic data are cross sections and resonance parameters.

  5. Nuclear Data for Astrophysics For many unstable nuclear no cross section data exist! • Calculations rely on data from theoretical models. • Experimental reaction data are used for refinement of theoretical models.

  6. Nuclear Data for Astrophysics Reaction rates • Coughlin and Fowler - 1967 [1] • NACRE [2] • T. Raucher and F.-K. Thielemann [3] • Goriely et al. Many others http://www.nucastrodata.org

  7. Nuclear Data for Astrophysics Energy released in nuclear reactions • Reaction Q-values • Audi, Wapstra, Thibault [4] http://www.nndc.bnl.gov/amdc/

  8. Nuclear Data for Astrophysics Structural properties of nuclei • Decay lifetime, • Branching ratios, • Separation energies: 1- and 2-particle, • Level densities, • Resonance parameters. http://www.nndc.bnl.gov/nudat2/

  9. Nuclear Data for Astrophysics

  10. Nuclear Data for Astrophysics • G.R. Coughlin and W.A. Fowler, At. Data & Nucl. Data Tables, 40 (1988) 283 • C. Angulo et al., Nucl. Phys. A 656 (1999) 3. • T. Raucher and F.-K. Thielemann, At. Data & Nucl. Data Tables 79 (2001) 47-64. • A.H. Wapstra, G. Audi, and C. Thibault, Nucl. Phys. A 729 (2003): part I, page 129; part II, page 337.

  11. Nuclear Data for Astrophysics Stellar nucleosynthesis: • Hydrogen burning. • Helium burning. • Silicon burning. Each involve the need for data on many nuclear reactions.

  12. Alpha-Induced Reactions • Reactions involving alpha particles are important in the helium burning stage of stars, novae, and supernovae. • They involve light to medium weight nuclei, up to Z=32, and center-of-mass energies up to about 20 MeV.

  13. Alpha-Induced Reactions • Buildup of 56Ni in supernovae depends critically on the (,) and (,p) reactions on -nuclei, the heaviest stable nuclide of them being 40Ca. • For more massive radioactive - nuclei, 44Ti, 48Cr, 52Fe, and 56Ni, we must rely heavily on calculations, since there are few measurements.

  14. Alpha-Induced Reactions • A key element in our understanding of -induced reactions is the -nucleus potential. • Most wide used potentials are McFadden-Satchler [1] and Arthur-Young [2]. • Both are global potentials, i.e., expected to perform for a large number of nuclei, but perhaps not suitable for accurate calculations.

  15. Alpha-Induced Reactions NNDC and CNPD, Sarov, along with ORNL, have been involved in a project to compile and evaluate alpha-induced nuclear reaction data. • Objective: to derive alpha-nucleus potentials for use in model calculations.

  16. Alpha-Induced Reactions • Compilation of data completed. • Evaluation of data. • Calculations using the code Empire [3] for both potentials and the code NON-SMOKER [4].

  17. Alpha-Induced Reactions • 1st phase of project is nearing completion [5]. • All data will be made available to the community.

  18. Alpha-Induced Reactions • L. McFadden and G.R. Satchler, Nucl. Phys. 84,177 (1966). • E.D. Arthur and P.G. Young, LA-8626 [ENDF-304], Los Alamos National Laboratory (1980). • M. Herman, paper presented at Nuclear Data for Science & Technology, Sep. 26 – Oct. 1, 2004, Santa Fe, NM, USA, to be published. • T. Rauscher, F.K. Thielemann, At. Data & Nucl. Data Tables 75, 1 (2000).

  19. Alpha-Induced Reactions • Papers presented at Nuclear Data for Science & Technology, Sep. 26 – Oct. 1, 2004, Santa Fe, NM, USA, to be published. • S.A.Dunaeva et al., paper 459. • A.G. Zvenigorodski et al., paper 460.

  20. Nuclear Data for Astrophysics To explain occurrence of heavy elements Evolving from existing Fe group: • s-process • r-process • rp-process

  21. Nuclear Data for Astrophysics s-process: slow sequence of neutron absorption (Red giant) Z,A → Z,A+1 → Z,A+2 …… ↓ β- Z+1,A+1 → Z+1,A+2 → …… Knowledge of (n,γ) cross sections 1 to 100 keV.

  22. Nuclear Data for Astrophysics r-process: rapid sequence of neutron absorption (supernova explosion)? Z,A → Z,A+1 → Z,A+2 → Z,A+3…… “neutron drip line” ↓ β- rp-process: rapid sequence of proton absorption Z,A → Z+1,A+1 → Z+2,A+2 → Z+3,A+3…… “proton drip line” ↓ β+
