Researchers uncover key nuclear processes in the formation of gold A team of nuclear physicists at the University of Tennessee has made significant progress in understanding how heavy elements like gold are formed during violent cosmic events. Using the rare isotope indium-134, researchers performed experiments at CERN’s ISOLDE facility, where advanced laser separation techniques and a specialized neutron detector allowed them to observe previously inaccessible nuclear behaviors. They achieved three major discoveries: the first measurement of neutron energies associated with beta-delayed two-neutron emission, the first observation of a long-predicted neutron state in tin-133, and the identification of non-statistical population patterns in nuclear decay. These results reveal that atomic nuclei retain a 'memory' of their formation, challenge existing nuclear models, and offer refined data to improve simulations of stellar events such as supernovae or neutron star collisions. The findings also provide crucial insights into exotic and highly unstable nuclei, enhancing our understanding of the r-process, the rapid neutron capture mechanism responsible for forging heavy elements like gold and platinum. The research, which involved collaboration among graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and faculty members, marks a major step in nuclear physics and the study of element formation in the universe.

Discovery of an Isospin-Symmetric Island of Inversion in Molybdenum-84 Physicists have identified a surprising new 'Island of Inversion' in molybdenum-84, challenging long-held assumptions in nuclear physics. Traditionally, these regions, where atomic nuclei adopt highly distorted shapes instead of their usual orderly structure, were observed only in neutron-rich, unstable isotopes far from stability. However, molybdenum-84, with an equal number of protons and neutrons (Z = N = 42), demonstrates dramatic nuclear deformation unlike its close neighbor molybdenum-86. Using advanced rare isotope beams and sensitive gamma-ray detectors, researchers measured the lifetimes of excited nuclear states and found that Mo-84 undergoes large-scale collective particle-hole excitations. These excitations involve nucleons jumping to higher energy orbitals while leaving gaps in lower orbitals, resulting in a strongly deformed nucleus. In contrast, Mo-86 exhibits more modest excitations and remains nearly spherical. The study highlights the importance of three-nucleon interactions in explaining these structural differences. This discovery marks the first known example of an Island of Inversion in a proton-neutron symmetric system and offers new insight into the forces that shape atomic nuclei, opening avenues for further research on nuclear structure in symmetric isotopes.
