Gamma-ray spectroscopy of fission fragments with state-of-the-art techniques / S. Leoni, C. Michelagnoli, J. Wilson. - In: LA RIVISTA DEL NUOVO CIMENTO DELLA SOCIETÀ ITALIANA DI FISICA. - ISSN 0393-697X. - 45:7(2022 Jul), pp. 461-547. [10.1007/s40766-022-00033-2]

Abstract:

The paper reviews recent developments in gamma-ray spectroscopy of the neutron-rich fragments produced in nuclear fission. This subject has been an intensive area of study spanning more than five decades. Here we highlight key results and describe the evolution of the associated experimental techniques since the last review papers in 1995 (I. Ahmad and W.R. Phillips, Rep. Prog. Phys. 58(11), 1415 (1995); J. H. Hamilton et al., Prog. Part. Nucl. Phys. 35, 635(1995)). Research themes in nuclear structure will be explored along with the fission reaction mechanism and the links to nuclear astrophysics and applications.
