Ph.D. Theses

Penning traps are versatile tools to gain knowledge about ground state properties of nuclides through high-precision measurements of their atomic masses. They can be used to refine theoretical mass models, thereby contributing to the understanding of nucleosynthesis. [...]

Die vorliegende Ausarbeitung stellt eine umfassende wissenschaftliche Analyse des zeitlichen Kontrasts intensiver Laserpulse dar. Sie dient dem Verständnis der Ursachen von Kontrast-limitierenden Einflüssenund der Verbesserung des zeitlichen Kontrasts [...]

A well-established technique to probe the single-particle structure over a wide rangeof nuclei is the one-nucleon removal reactions in inverse kinematics using radioactiveion beams. This thesis presents inclusive measurements of one-nucleon removal from57Ni by a carbon (C) target. [...]

As a response to an external perturbation, a nucleus can be collectively excited. Amongthose collective excitations exist the giant resonances, which have been extensively studiedin stable nuclei. [...]

An important and growing sub-field of modern subatomic physics is the studyof exotic isotopes using radioactive beams. Experiments started out simple,but are becoming more and more advanced. [...]
