Nuclear resonance absorption/fluorescence (NRA/F) is the process by which a nucleus absorbs/emits electromagnetic radiation. Because the energy of this process is specific to the isotope, interrogating nuclear energy levels electromagnetically has been proposed for solutions in nuclear materials detection and pharmaceutical purity measurements [1]. Jentschel et al. recently demonstrated how a...
Photonuclear reactions are sensitive to nuclear currents that are not accessible in pure hadronic processes and therefore, provide important insights to deepen our understanding of the few nucleon systems. However, the lack of kinematically-complete three-nucleon data remains a major hurdle in benchmarking the theoretical formalisms which are employed to model these few nucleon systems.

The generation of high spectral brilliance radiation with electron beam sources relies heavily on the qualities of the electron beam. Achieving a remarkably high electron beam brightness necessitates a combination of high peak current and low emittance. These characteristics are made possible through the utilization of intense field acceleration in a radio-frequency (RF) photoinjector source....
