FISSION-FRAGMENT YIELDS MEASURED IN COULOMB-INDUCED FISSION OF 234,235,236,238U AND 237,238NP WITH THE R3B/SOFIA SETUP

Fission-fragment yields measured in Coulomb-induced fission of 234,235,236,238U and 237,238Np with the R3B/SOFIA setup

Low energy fission of 234,235,236,238U BNC Plug and 237,238Np radioactive beams, provided by the GSI/FRS facility, has been studied using the R3B/SOFIA setup.The latter allows, on an event-by-event basis, to simultaneously identify, in terms of their mass and atomic numbers, the fissioning Hair Styling nucleus in coincidence with both fission fragm

A Soil Moisture Retrieval Method for Reducing Topographic Effect: A Case Study on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau With SMOS Data

The topography can be very important for passive microwave remote sensing of soil moisture due to its complex influence on the emitted brightness temperature observed by a satellite microwave radiometer.In this study, a methodology of using the first brightness Stokes parameter (i.e., the sum of vertical and horizontal polarization brightness tempe
