Beta-Decay Properties of Neutron-Rich pf-shell Nuclei
Abstract
Determining weak interaction rates of pf-shell nuclei is necessary to model late stage supernova evolution. As all rates cannot be measured, we must develop and test model calculations. We present shell model calculations of β-decay half-lives and Q-values for 47-60Ca, 46-57Sc and 51-62Ti isotopes. These calculations, performed with NuShellX using three different interaction Hamiltonians, are compared to experimental measurements where possible.
