Leonid Grigorenko Flerov Laboratory of Nuclear Reactions Joint Institute for Nuclear Research Dubna, Russia Theoretical basics and modern status of radioactivity studies Lecture 1: JINR, Dubna, Russia JINR foundation - 1956 Three years after Stalin death Two years after CERN foundation 11 Member countries Dubna synchrotron 1957 10 GeV protons Last and largest accelerator “Atom is not a soldier – atom is worker!” in soft focusing scheme, monstrous magnets Their iron yokes are now used as USSR on the way to more openness radiation shield for NICA booster However, understood specifically JINR location “Dubna island” – the “institute” part of the city is encircled by 3 rivers: Close to Moscow (100 km) and easy Volga, Dubna and Volga-Moscow to control – poorly populated channel region with swamps, forests and rivers surrounding the site Moscow district Two main sites of JINR: low-energy and high-energy Dubna science Veksler and Baldin Laboratory of High Energy Physics Bogoliubov Laboratory of Theoretical Physics Frank Laboratory of Neutron Physics Laboratory of Information Technologies Laboratory of Radiation Biology Dzhelepov Laboratory of Nuclear Problems Flerov Laboratory of Nuclear Reactions Dubna University Dubna city “Rainbow” plant Kamov helicopter plant Reindustrialization of Russia Two “Free economical areas” “Beta” film irradiation facility Cold sterilization Flerov lab is among world leaders Mass production at “Beta” facility Sterilization without thermal processing, e.g. by gas, x-rays, UV light, electron beam One type of CS is very special. The only applicable in faint applications like molecular microbiology, etc.: nuclearpore membrane sterilization Pores from 10 to 0.01 mm Even virus can not get through! Production: - Heavy ion irradiation - Chemical “track etching” Volga-Moscow channel near Dmitrov – the limiting point of fascist army advance to Some history Moscow in winter 1941-1942 IL-2 ground attack plane First breeds of 1941 – no rear machine-gunner Excavated from swamp 7 years ago Dubna Dmitrov Moscow Some views – Ivankovskoe water reservoir near Dubna in winter Some views – Volga river gateway: here is Lenin, Stalin has left us Some views – Bogolyubov, Flerov, Kurchatov, and Visotskiy Some views – pigeon monument Some views – Dubna day in the middle of summer Fireworks on the north side of Volga river Competitions of fire + music shows High-energy cite of JINR – NICA project High-energy cite of JINR – NICA project in construction Radioactive Ion Beam (RIB) physics The map of nuclides “Isle of stability” for superheavies: - 254 stable nuclides, We just “touched” a - 339 can be found in nature bit of its “shore”… - Around 3100 RI are known - Around 2500 to be discovered Proton dripline: Limits of nuclear Achieved and structure existence: studied for Z<32 Are known only for the lightest nuclei Exotic structure of exotic nuclides: - Neutron/proton halo - Neutron skin - “Soft” excitation modes Neutron dripline: - Breakdown of shell structure Achieved and studied for N<20 - New “magic numbers” Motivation – Applications to nucleosynthesys s-process rp-process fragment rp-process r-process Hydrostatic burning – slow process Explosive burning – rapid processes Where does it take place? Every day observed violent events in space are produced by rp-processes Element abundance in space is connected with r-processes No quantitative understanding until the driplines are studied in details Motivation – Applications All the heavy elements in the to neutron stars Universe are produced in explosive nucleosynthesys PV = (m/m) RT Supernovae explosions. How we get Equation of state for ideal gas. from neutron star to Supernova? What about nuclear matter? Neutron star: very large nucleus with Known nuclei: practically symmetric absolutely asymmetric nuclear matter nuclear matter Moving towards the driplines we get experimental knowledge about more and more asymmetric nuclear matter What we already have at Flerov lab Ускоритель У-400 Elements 102 - 108 and 113 - 118 were synthesized at FLNR JINR Superheavy “isle of stability” discovered New elements 114Fl Flerovium 116Lv Livermorium 113Nh Nihonium 115Mc Moscovium 117Ts Tennessine 118Og Oganesson recognized recently Fragment-separator ACCULINNA: Studies of the light RIBs Ускоритель У-400М The only facility for RIB studies in Russia, CIS, and Easten Europe 7-year planning prospects “Factory of superheavy Near future elements” Stage: mounting of equipment Investment: ~55 M€ ??? Long-time prospects Facility based on ACCULINNA-2 fragment-separator Near future Stage: first experiments in the fall of 2017 Investment: ~10 M€ New facilities at FLNR: “factory of superheavies” DC-280 cyclotron specifically adopted for superheavy elements synthesis Building of “Factory of superheavy elements” New facilities at FLNR: “superlights” ACCULINNA-2 fragment-separator ACCULINNA-2 and zero-angle spectrometer delivered by “SigmaPhi” French ion optics solutions provider U-400M cyclotron Zero-angle spectrometer in the low-background experimental hall Huge increase in the Big, bigger, the biggest scale of modern and prospective RIB facilities: Price tag 1-2 G€ SPIRAL 2 FAIR FRIB U400M hall Is it possible to have world competitive RIBF RIB program with modest investment scale? Empty “ecological niche” Underdeveloped field: Empty field: studies of RIBs storage ring physics with RIBs in electron-RIB collider Studies of RIB storage ring Isochronous mass electromagnetic spectromentry formfactors of exotic nuclei in e-RIB collider Precision reaction electron studies on internal gas jet target storage ring Atomic physics Etc…. studies with Radioactivity striped ions studies with striped ions Electron scattering Robert Hofstadter 1915-1990, 1961 Nobel Prize "for his pioneering studies of electron After masses, the radial properties scattering in atomic nuclei and are the most important for his consequent discoveries characteristics of nuclei concerning the structure of nucleons.." First Born approximation, fast electrons, relatively light nuclei Electromagnetic probe is электроны, достаточно легкие ядра the most reliably studied - Electron scattering Charge formfactor, charge radius - Experiments in traps – “static” EM - Electron scattering – characteristics -> derivation of rch differenttial characteristics Why it has happened this way?
