Transiently accreting neutron stars go\u0000through alternating phases of active accretion outbursts and quiescence. X-ray\u0000observations during the quiescence phase show a drop in X-ray luminosity with\u0000the time in quiescence. This is also inferred as the drop in surface\u0000temperature or the cooling of accreting neutron stars in quiescence. Analyzing\u0000these cooling curves reveals a great deal of information about the structure\u0000and composition of neutron stars. However, model-observation comparisons of\u0000such cooling curves are challenging - partly due to observational\u0000uncertainties, and partly due to incomplete knowledge of heating mechanisms\u0000during accretion outbursts. This situation is further exacerbated by the recent\u0000discovery of Urca cooling in the neutron star crust. These are cycles that\u0000alternate between electron-capture and beta-decay to produce a large flux of\u0000neutrinos and anti-neutrinos. These freely stream out of the star and carry\u0000energy with them, essentially cooling the neutron star crust without changing\u0000the composition. As a result, it is necessary to accurately quantify the\u0000strength of Urca cooling to constrain the heat sources in neutron star crusts\u0000and facilitate better model-observation comparisons of the cooling curves.","PeriodicalId":501206,"journal":{"name":"arXiv - PHYS - Nuclear Experiment","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141521033","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A recent study by Kib'edi et al.\u0000[Phys. Rev. Lett. 125, 182701 (2020)] has challenged our understanding of this\u0000astrophysically significant branching ratio and its constraints. The objective\u0000of this work was to perform a new measurement of the $gamma$-decay branching\u0000ratio of the Hoyle state to deduce the radiative branching ratio of the Hoyle\u0000state. An additional objective was to independently verify aspects of the\u0000aforementioned measurement conducted by Kib'edi et al.

Data collected at\u0000$sqrt{s_{NN}}=3$ GeV in BES-II exhibit trends opposite of those observed in\u0000higher energy collisions which may suggest the dominance of hadronic\u0000interactions at this energy. The variance of proton multiplicity distributions\u0000in azimuthal partitions is measured to search for signals of clustering\u0000indicative of a first-order phase transition. A strong dependence on the event\u0000multiplicity is observed. This dependence is independent of energy in AMPT\u0000while in STAR data a significant trend with energy is observed.","PeriodicalId":501206,"journal":{"name":"arXiv - PHYS - Nuclear Experiment","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141254606","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
