Teaching activities:
- Courses, lectures and practical works for university students (graduate, master and PhD) in the
field of nuclear physics: nuclear reaction mechanisms, nuclear structure, evaluation of nuclear
reaction data, nuclear reactor physics etc.
- PhD coordinator
- 3 books published: 2 books for master and PhD students and one book for researchers and PhD
students
Scientific activity:
In the field of nuclear reactions and nuclear fission:
- neutron induced reactions on actinides: direct interaction mechanism (optical model, DWBA
and Coupled Channel method), compound nucleus mechanism, statistical model
- development of the statistical model for fission with sub-barrier effects and with extension in
the frame of the multi-modal fission concept
- nuclear level densities for fission
1
- models for prompt neutron emission:
- improvements of Los Alamos model with one fragmentation (model parameter
dependence on the excitation energy, anisotropy effect taken into account, new form of
the residual nuclear temperature distribution of fission fragments and so on)
- extension of models based of prompt neutron emission from fully accelerated fission
fragments for high incident energies taking into account the fission of secondary
compound nuclei formed by charged particle emission
- development of Los Alamos model in the frame of multi-modal fission concept
- “Point by Point” model development– taking into account the entire fission fragment
range covered by the charge and mass distributions
- development of systematics for the average parameters required by the Los Alamos
model for prompt neutron emission
- determination of fragment mass distribution on the basis of experimental fragment charge
distributions in the frame of the Point by Point treatment
- prompt neutron multiplicity distribution P(ν) for spontaneous and neutron induced fission
on actinides
- approach for the fission fragment total kinetic energy TKE(A) calculation
- development of methods of total excitation energy partition between complementary
fully-accelerated fission fragments
Scientific publications:
