Measurement of the forward angle $^{12}$C+$^{12}$C fragmentation differential cross sections at 62 MeV/nucleon

The present work reports on high-precision measurements of forward-angle fragmentation differential cross sections for the [12]C +[12] C reaction at 62 MeV/nucleon using the FAZIA array. Angular distributions for fragments from Z = 1 to 6 were extracted in the range 2 <= theta_lab <= 8 degrees. Particle identification was achieved by combining the Delta E - E technique with Pulse Shape Analysis, and precise energy calibrations were performed. The results show that for heavier fragments, the angular distributions are better described by the Van Bibber formulation than by the Goldhaber model, consistent with the dominance of a wide component from dissipative processes in the measured angular range. Notably, alpha particles exhibit an anomalously narrow angular distribution, likely originating from the intrinsic cluster structure of [12]C. Comparisons with existing data at the same incident energy show very good agreement, with a more complete set of species reported here, while a kinematic scaling is proposed to compare our data with previous experimental data at 50 and 95 MeV/nucleon.

Role of nuclear and electromagnetic fragmentation in the charge-changing reactions of 18O on carbon and lead targets at around 370 MeV/nucleon

Charge-changing cross sections (CCCSs) of 18O on carbon (C) and lead (Pb) targets have been measured with an uncertainty of less than 4% at around 370MeV/nucleon. We evaluate the contributions of nucleon-nucleon (NN) and electromagnetic (EM) interactions to CCCSs by considering the direct proton removal process, the charged particle evaporation (CPE) after neutron removal, and the EM excitation. We conclude that the CPE accounts for 12.3% and 5% of CCCSs on C and Pb, respectively. Only less than 1% of CCCSs of 18O is attributed to the EM excitation. Further investigation of projectiles from 18O to 197Au on C, silver (Ag) and Pb targets at 300 and 900MeV/nucleon show that the contribution of EM to CCCSs on Ag and Pb increases with projectile mass numbers and incident energies, and can reach 10% for 197Au on Pb at 900MeV/nucleon. In contrast, the EM contribution to CCCS is negligible for all projectiles on C at both energies.

Does 3D frequency-domain FWI of full-azimuth/long-offset OBN data feasible? The Gorgon case study

Frequency-domain Full Waveform Inversion (FWI) is potentially amenable to efficient processing of full-azimuth long-offset stationary-recording seabed acquisition carried out with sparse layout of ocean bottom nodes (OBNs) and broadband sources because the inversion can be performed with a few discrete frequencies. However, computing efficiently the solution of the forward (boundary-value) problem in the frequency domain with linear algebra solvers remains a challenge for large computational domains involving tens to hundreds of millions of parameters. We illustrate the feasibility of 3D frequency-domain FWI with the 2015/16 Gorgon OBN case study in the NorthWestern shelf, Australia. We solve the forward problem with the massively-parallel multifrontal direct solver MUMPS, which includes four key features to reach high computational efficiency: An efficient parallelism combining message-passing interface and multithreading, block low-rank compression, mixed precision arithmetic and efficient processing of sparse sources. The Gorgon subdataset involves 650 OBNs that are processed as reciprocal sources and 400,000 sources. Mono-parameter FWI for vertical wavespeed is performed in the visco-acoustic VTI approximation with a classical frequency continuation approach proceeding from a starting frequency of 1.7 Hz to a final frequency of 13 Hz. The target covers an area ranging from 260 km2 (frequency > 8.5 Hz) to 705 km2 (frequency < 8.5 Hz) for a maximum depth of 8 km. Compared to the starting model, FWI dramatically improves the reconstruction of the bounding faults of the Gorgon horst at reservoir depths as well as several intra-horst faults and several horizons of the Mungaroo formation down to a depth of 7 km.

Impact of Dark Photon Emission on Massive Star Evolution and Pre-Supernova Neutrino Signal

We study the effects of additional cooling due to the emission of a dark matter candidate particle, the dark photon, on the final phases of the evolution of a $15\,M_\odot$ star and resulting modifications of the pre-supernova neutrino signal. For a substantial portion of the dark photon parameter space the extra cooling speeds up Si burning, which results in a reduced number of neutrinos emitted during the last day before core collapse. This reduction can be described by a systematic acceleration of the relevant timescales and the results can be estimated semi-analytically in good agreement with the numerical simulations. Outside the semi-analytic regime we find more complicated effects. In a narrow parameter range, low-mass dark photons lead to an increase of the number of emitted neutrinos because of additional shell burning episodes that delay core collapse. Furthermore, relatively strong couplings produce a thermonuclear runaway during O burning, which could result in a complete disruption of the star but requires more detailed simulations to determine the outcome. Our results show that pre-supernova neutrino signals are a potential probe of the dark photon parameter space.

A long-term frequency-stabilized erbium-fiber-laser-based optical frequency comb with an intra-cavity electro-optic modulator

We demonstrate an optical frequency comb based on an erbium-doped-fiber femtosecond laser with the nonlinear polarization evolution scheme. The repetition rate of the laser is about 209 MHz. By controlling an intra-cavity electro-optic modulator and a piezo-transducer, the repetition rate can be stabilized with high servo bandwidth in a range of 3 kHz, enabling long-term repetition rate phase-locking. The in-loop frequency stability of repetition rate is about 1.6E-13 at 1 second integration time, limited by the measurement system; and it is inversely proportional to integration time in short term. Furthermore, using a common path f-2f interferometer, the carrier envelope offset frequency of the frequency comb is obtained with a signal-to-noise ratio of 40 dB in 3 MHz resolution bandwidth. Stabilized carrier envelope offset frequency exhibits a deviation of 0.6 mHz at 1 second integration time.
