Description
The neutron-rich actinide region is of interest as it is thought to be
related to the endpoint of the nucleosynthesis via the rapid
neutron-capture process (r-process), where the actinide elements such as
uranium are formed by beta-decays and middle-mass nuclei are served by
nuclear fissions. To explore this region and measure fundamental nuclei
properties related to the nucleosynthesis including nuclear mass,
half-life, decay scheme, and fission patterns, we are employing ion-trap
techniques to develop experimental apparatus. This presentation will
outline our recent achievements and developments and future prospects.
