Fassbender, V. Heera, M. Helm Cover Picture: The cover picture illustrates the near-infrared absorption of excitonic transitions in semiconductor quan- tum wells under illumination with intense THz pulses of the free-electron laser. The THz light couples the hh(1s) and hh(2p) states resulting in a characteristic, intensity-dependent line splitting of the hh(1s) ground state at higher field strengths that is a manifestation of the intraexcitonic Autler-Townes effect. This splitting only occurs during the THz pulse, as shown in the waterfall and corresponding contour plot in the figure. For further information see: M. Wagner et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 105, 167401 (2010), reprinted at pp. 16 – 19 of this Annual Report. Helmholtz – Zentrum Dresden – Rossendorf e.V. Institute of Ion Beam Physics and Materials Research P.O.

This change reflects a signi- ficant transition for us: it means that the research center is now member of the Helmholtz Association of German Research Centers (HGF), i.e., a real government research laboratory, with the mission to perform research to solve fundamental societal problems. Often to date those are called the “Grand Challenges” and comprise issues such as energy supply and resources, health in relation to aging population, future mobility, or the information society. This Annual Report already bears the new corporate design, adequate for the time of its issueing, but reports results from the year 2010, when we were still member of the Leibniz Association (WGL). Our research is still mainly in the fields of semiconductor physics and materials science using ion beams. The institute operates a national and international Ion Beam Center, which, in addition to its own scientific activities, makes available fast ion technologies to universities, other research institutes, and industry. Parts of its activities are also dedicated to exploit the infrared/THz free- electron laser at the 40 MeV superconducting electron accelerator ELBE for condensed matter research. For both facilities the institute holds EU grants for funding access of external users. The diagram displays the presently six R&D topics of the institute, together with the associated larger-scale facilities providing access for external users. The research activities span a wide range of topics relevant for future information processing and energy technology, be it in the realm of nano- electronics, optoelectronics, magnetoelectronics, spintronics, and future photovoltaics. The most significant change in the year 2010, however, was the official retirement of the institute’s director for 17 years, Prof. Wolfhard Möller. He largely shaped the institute over those many years, not hesitating to initiate new research directions also beyond his own expertise. For all that we would like to express our sincere and deep gratitude to him. Yet Wolfhard Möller did not stop working, he still contributes strongly to the success of the EU I3 project SPIRIT, which he had initiated a few years back. Other organizational changes include the new appointment of Dr. Jeffrey McCord as division head “Nanomagnetism” (after Jürgen Fassbender had become director of the institute) and the establishment of a new division “Nanostructures” headed by PD Dr. Sibylle Gemming. The new 6 MV 4 Preface Tandetron accelerator was put into operation and replaces the old 5 MV tandem that was shut down after 38 (!) years of operation. The new machine will play the key role in our new activities in accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) under guidance of Dr. Silke Merchel. Highlights of last year’s research are presented in this Annual Report through reprints of short papers that were published in leading international journals. In 2010, IIM staff published more than 140 papers in peer-reviewed journals, including Physical Review Letters, Nano Letters, Advanced Materials, Small, and of course a number of papers in Applied Physics Letters, some of which are reprinted in this Annual Report. Concerning third-party funding the most remarkable achievement last year has been the extreme success with grants of the German Science Foundation (DFG). Probably motivated by the fact that starting in 2011, being a member of HGF, we have reduced eligibility for DFG grants, our scientific staff has made an exceptional effort in submitting excellent applications, finally resulting in a granted sum of more than two million Euro. Apart from this, the European I3 project SPIRIT is still running and funding transnational access to our ion beam facilities. Contracts with industry continue to play a major role as well, reflecting our spectrum from very basic to relevant applied research. Finally we would like to cordially thank all partners, friends, and organizations who supported our progress in 2010. Special thanks are due to the Executive Board of the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf, the Minister of Science and Arts of the Free State of Saxony, and the Minister of Education and Research of the Federal Government of Germany. Numerous partners from univer- sities, industry and research institutes all around the world contributed essentially, and play a crucial role for the further development of the institute. Last but not least, the directors would like to thank all IIM staff for their efforts and excellent contributions in 2010.

It is only thanks to the support of our students, alumni and contributors, and the other sources of company and organizational financing we receive that we are able to continue with our work, which in 2012 has focused primarily on two areas: scholarships to train the very best national and international talent, and applied research as a means of contributing to economic and social progress. This year, we have sought to extend our acclaimed training to high-potential candidates who do not have the financial resources to study at the IE and to promote excellence in our research, which has become both an essential complement to our teaching work at IE and a useful means of furthering the activities of our sponsors. None of these activities, or indeed any of our other work, would be possible without the support of our students, alumni, contributors and institutional sponsors.

    Radioactive decays at limits of nuclear stability M. Pfützner∗ and M. Karny Faculty of Physics, University of Warsaw, Hoża 69, PL-00-681 Warszawa, Poland L.V. Grigorenko Flerov Laboratory of Nuclear Reactions, JINR, RU-141980, Dubna, Russia K. Riisager Department of Physics and Astronomy, Aarhus University, DK-8000 Aarhus C, Denmark (Dated: November 3, 2011) The last decades brought an impressive progress in synthesizing and studying properties of nuclides located very far from the beta stability line. Among the most fundamen- tal properties of such exotic nuclides, usually established first, is the half-life, possible radioactive decay modes, and their relative probabilities. When approaching limits of nuclear stability, new decay modes set in. First, beta decays become accompanied by emission of nucleons from highly excited states of daughter nuclei. Second, when the nu- cleon separation energy becomes negative, nucleons start to be emitted from the ground state. Here, we present a review of the decay modes occurring close to the limits of stability. The experimental methods used to produce, identify and detect new species and their radiation are discussed. The current theoretical understanding of these decay processes is overviewed. The theoretical description of the most recently discovered and most complex radioactive process — the two-proton radioactivity — is discussed in more detail.

    Bodleian Library Publishing SPRING 2021 Bodleian Library Publishing SPRING 2021 Founded in 1602, the Bodleian Library is one of the oldest libraries in Britain and the largest university library in Europe. Since 1610, it has been entitled to receive a copy of every book published in the British Isles. The Bodleian collections, built up through benefaction, purchase and legal deposit, are exceptionally diverse, spanning every corner of the globe and embracing almost every form of written work and the book arts. With over thirteen million items and outstanding special collections, the Bodleian draws readers from every continent and continues to inspire generations of researchers as well as the wider public who enjoy its exhibitions, displays, public lectures and other events. Increasingly, its unique collections are available to all digitally. Bodleian Library Publishing helps to bring some of the riches of Oxford’s libraries to readers around the world through a range of beautiful and authoritative books. We publish approximately twenty-five new books a year on a wide range of subjects, including titles related to our exhibitions, illustrated and non-illustrated books, facsimiles, children’s books and stationery. We have a current backlist of over 250 titles.
