Session 12: Nuclear Structure, Reactions and Dynamics
- Alison Bruce (University of Brighton)
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are rapidly developing fields providing data-driven algorithms to predict, classify, and make decisions based on data. Nuclear Physics Research is data-driven and AI/ML techniques have been implemented for experiment and accelerator control, in theoretical applications, and in data processing and analysis. These algorithms open...

Fission is a fundamental nuclear decay that plays an important role in many areas of science. Recently, significant...
Deuteron-induced nuclear reactions are typically described within a Faddeev three-body model consisting of a neutron, proton, and the nucleus interacting through pairwise forces. While Faddeev techniques enable the exact description of the three-body dynamics, their predictive power is limited in part by the omission of irreducible three-body nucleon-nucleon-nucleus forces. An alternative...
Electron scattering and rare isotopes are unique complementary techniques that provide powerful magnifying glasses to probe the interactions between nucleons inside nuclei. Over more than a quarter century, the 4 GeV and now 12 GeV (un)polarized electron beam of the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (Newport News, Virginia, USA) has unraveled unprecedented insights into nuclear...
