Room: Galileo & Einstein Penning trap mass spectrometry provides the most precise technique for direct measurement of the mass of single nuclides. The determination with high-precision of this fundamental nuclear property, and the related nuclear binding energy, gives information on the evolution of nuclear structure away from stability. It also produces valuable inputs for the theoretical models describing the stellar nucleosynthesis processes such as the rapid neutron capture ($r$) process, responsible for the origin of more than half of the elements heavier than iron. These astrophysical calculations were shown to be very sensitive to masses, with the improved precision on their value directly impacting the model predictions. In the recent years at the JYFL Accelerator Laboratory, the use of the JYFLTRAP and the Phase-Imaging Ion Cyclotron-Resonance technique, combined with the fast and universal IGISOL production method, led to the determination of more than a 100 nuclear masses across the nuclide chart, including around 40 long-lived isomeric states. This presentation aims at giving an overview of the latest high-precision mass measurements of neutron-rich rare-earth isotopes around $A=160$ and fission fragments in the $^{132}$Sn region performed with the JYFLTRAP, and discussing their implications for the $r$ process modeling.

11:00 AM - 11:30 AM
Room: Galileo & Einstein Of the approximately 7,000 nuclei predicted by nuclear models, fewer than half have had their mass measured experimentally. Many of the remaining nuclei are highly unstable and difficult to produce. Precise mass measurements play a crucial role in nuclear structure studies and nucleosynthesis modelling, and require advanced instrumentation to reach the most exotic isotopes. At the DESIR facility at GANIL, radioactive nuclei will be provided both by the S3 low-energy branch, delivering heavy, neutron-deficient nuclei via fusion-evaporation reactions, and by SPIRAL1, producing light, neutron-rich isotopes through fragmentation. The Exotic Nuclei group at LP2iB is developing PIPERADE, a double Penning trap dedicated to isobaric purification and precise mass measurements of exotic nuclei. I will present the current status of PIPERADE, which is currently undergoing offline commissioning at LP2iB in Bordeaux. While the Time-of-Flight Ion-Cyclotron Resonance (ToF-ICR) technique is already well established and has yielded promising results, current efforts are focused on the implementation and optimization of the Phase-Imaging Ion-Cyclotron Resonance (PI-ICR) method. The current level of precision achieved will be presented. Although PI-ICR is a well-established technique, its deployment at PIPERADE requires careful tuning of the trap configuration and beamline parameters to meet performance expectations. Some of the encountered and resolved issues will also be discussed during the presentation. The setup is scheduled to be relocated to the DESIR facility in 2027, with first on-line experiments planned for 2028. These developments will pave the way for precise mass measurements at DESIR, extending the accessible range of exotic nuclei and contributing to the facility’s scientific programme.

Precision Mass Measurements With The Canadian Penning Trap For Nuclear Astrophysics

11:30 AM - 12:00 PM
Room: Galileo & Einstein Understanding the reaction rates of nuclei relevant to nucleosynthesis processes relies in part on nuclear masses, often far from the valley of stability. The Canadian Penning Trap (CPT) has long measured such masses, and has recently concluded a decade-long campaign at the CARIBU facility, measuring over 200 nuclei produced through the spontaneous fission of $^{252}$Cf. One focus of these measurements was masses of interest to understanding the formation of the rare-earth peak in the astrophysical r-process [1,2,3], and another was on measurement of the ground and isomeric states of ``astromers'' or astrophysically-relevant isomers in neutron-rich nuclei along both the r- and s-process paths [4,5]. The future of the CPT's studies for nuclear astrophysics will occur at the currently-commissioning N=126 Factory, where multi-nucleon transfer reactions will produce nuclei further from stability at rates that make Penning trap mass measurements possible. Measurements at the N=126 Factory will begin with masses of interest for the formation of the heaviest $A\sim195$ r process abundance peak, but will also extend the CPT's rare earth peak campaign farther from stability.

Room: Galileo & Einstein The rapid neutron capture (r-) process is responsible for producing half of the elements heavier than iron in the Universe. Most of the exotic neutron-rich nuclei along the r-process path are currently not experimentally accessible, making theoretical predictions essential, e.g., for nuclear masses, reaction rates, and fission properties. Here we employ ab initio masses for nuclei around the N=82 shell closure that were calculated with the Valence Space In-Medium Similarity Renormalization Group (VS-IMSRG) method. We show how these state-of-the-art mass calculations can be used to refine r-process predictions compared to purely phenomenological mass models.

3:30 PM - 4:00 PM
Room: Galileo & Einstein To further expand the science program at the Facility of Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB), we are developing a high-voltage Multi-Reflection Time-of-Flight (MR-ToF) device at FRIB. It is foreseen to increase the reach of FRIB’s high-precision mass measurement program, to deliver isobaric and isomeric purified ion beams to experimental stations within FRIB’s stopped and reaccelerated beam areas and to improve beam diagnostics and identification. Uniquely, FRIB’s MR-ToF device will store ions at an unprecedented beam energy of 30 keV. Simulations based on the work by the MIRACLS collaboration at ISOLDE/CERN [1,2] show that the ion throughput can be enhanced by 2 orders of magnitude when increasing the kinetic energy of the stored ions and when improving the MR-ToF design leading to a higher beam intensity of the purified ion beam. Furthermore, the raised beam energy also results in a larger energy spread tolerance enabling a higher mass resolving power in even shorter processing times [1,3] as required to access nuclei with extremely short half-lives. This contribution presents the design concept, development status, and the planned first science cases of FRIB’s MR-ToF system. The primary focus are high-precision mass measurements of the most exotic nuclei in close proximity to the driplines and the delivery of high-purity isomeric beams for decay spectroscopy studies critical to nuclear structure and astrophysics. Of particular interest is the study of astromers, nuclear isomeric states that can influence elemental abundances in astrophysical environments. Understanding the population and depopulation of these isomeric states is essential for modeling nucleosynthesis pathways.

4:00 PM - 4:30 PM
Room: Galileo & Einstein There is an astute idea of the different processes that assemble heavy elements (Z > 26) in our universe, but the production sites of some of them remain unclear. The processes that generate the most exotic nuclei such as r-process, for rapid neutron capture, and rp-process, for rapid proton capture are difficult to thoroughly describe because of the lack of experimental nuclear properties of those regions. Indeed, said properties are key inputs to calculate nucleosynthesis processes. During this talk, I will be presenting the work that revolves around nuclear mass measurements with the ISOLTRAP experiment [1] at CERN. I will focus on astrophysical motivations for mass measurements in two extremes of the nuclear chart near the magic proton number Z = 50. On the neutron-rich side, there are masses relevant to the r-process around the neutron magic number N = 82 as shown in sensitivity studies of different models [2]. On the neutron-deficient side, the region around 100Sn is a key area for the rp-process, as it is considered the “end point” of the process [3] with the Sn-Sb-Te cycle. In this context, I will be looking at the recently evaluated masses in the region including, the ones measured by ISOLTRAP, and their effect on the rp-process. Then, I will present the measurement method at ISOLTRAP and its challenges. As we are going for more exotic nuclei over time, the current techniques of production and measurements are reaching their limits. That is why we are working on technical developments to overcome some of these issues, mainly contaminations, and low yield cases. These advances are/will be used during next measurements of some interesting nuclei for the mentioned nucleosynthesis processes, such as, 96-98Cd [4] and 126-129Ag [5]. [1] Lunney, D. et al., J.

4:30 PM - 5:00 PM
Room: Galileo & Einstein Atomic masses are indispensable in nuclear structure and astrophysics research, and Penning traps enable the most precise mass measurements achievable to date [1]. TRIGA-Trap is a high-precision, double Penning-trap mass spectrometer located in the reactor hall of the TRIGA (Training, Research, Isotopes, General Atomic) research reactor in Mainz, Germany [2]. At TRIGA-Trap, mass measurements of heavy radioactive nuclides $-$ particularly actinides $-$ are performed with the PI-ICR (Phase-Imaging Ion-Cyclotron Resonance) technique [3]. This method offers high sensitivity, resolving power and accuracy, while requiring relatively short measurement times [3]. Latest mass measurements of actinides, including $^{244}$Pu, $^{241}$Am, $^{243}$Am, $^{248}$Cm, and $^{249}$Cf have achieved uncertainties at the parts-per-billion (ppb) level and will be included in the next AME (Atomic Mass Evaluation) dataset [4,5]. Precise mass values of actinides are crucial inputs to nucleosynthesis calculations of r-process pathways. In addition, such measurements allow the exploration of nuclear structure through trends in mass filters, such as $S_{2n}$ (two-neutron separation energies) and $\delta V_{p,n}$ (average $p$-$n$ interaction of the most loosely-bound two nucleons), as well as their differentials [4]. Furthermore, the predictive capabilities of various nuclear shell models for heavy and deformed nuclei can be assessed. Recently, mass measurements in the Pu isotopic chain $-$ including $^{238}$Pu, $^{239}$Pu, $^{240}$Pu, and $^{242}$Pu $-$ have been performed. This will enhance the current dataset and help contribute to ongoing nuclear structure and astrophysical studies. This presentation will provide an overview of the current status of the TRIGA-Trap experiment, highlight recent results, and outline future prospects. **References** [1] J. Dilling, K. Blaum, M.

Room: Galileo & Einstein The nuclear two-photon or double gamma (2$\gamma$) decay is a rare second-order electromagnetic process in which an excited nucleus emits two gamma rays simultaneously [1]. Its branching ratio is significantly lower than that of competing first-order processes such as internal conversion, pair creation, or single-photon emission, making its experimental observation extremely challenging. However, in the Experimental Storage Ring (ESR) at GSI, these competing decay modes can be suppressed by storing fully stripped ions and selecting a 0$^+ \rightarrow$ 0$^+$ transition with excitation energy below the electron-positron pair creation threshold (1022 keV) [2, 3]. Under these conditions, the two-photon decay becomes the only available decay channel. In this talk, we will report on the current status of the analysis of an experiment investigating the 2$\gamma$ decay of $^{98}\mathrm{Mo}$, which has a first excited $0^+$ state at 734.75 keV. The experiment was performed at the GSI facility in Darmstadt, employing the unique conditions in the Experimental Storage Ring. Fully stripped $^{98}\mathrm{Mo}$ ions were produced using the projectile fragmentation of $^{100}\mathrm{Mo}$ primary beam on a $^{9}$Be target in the transfer line to the ESR. These ions were then transported and stored in the ESR, which was operated in the isochronous mode. To monitor and detect the revolving ions, two non-destructive Schottky detectors [4] were used at different operation frequencies (245 and 410 Hz). These detectors allow for precision measurement of the ions’ revolution frequencies, enabling extraction of both the nuclear half-life and mass. In addition, the revolution frequency provides particle identification via the ions’ mass-to-charge ratios. The preliminary results indicate that the measured half-life of $^{98}\mathrm{Mo}$ is consistent with the expected theoretica estimates based on extrapolation from previously studied $0^+ \rightarrow 0^+$ nuclear transitions [1].

Room: Galileo & Einstein TRIUMF's Ion Trap for Atomic and Nuclear science (TITAN) specializes in high-precision measurements and isobaric separation of exotic nuclei using advanced electromagnetic traps. These precise mass measurements are crucial for investigating nuclear structure and studying astrophysical processes involving isotopes far from the valley of stability. TITAN’s Multiple-Reflection Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometer (MR-TOF-MS) enables the study of short-lived and rare nuclei through its fast measurement cycles (on the order of milliseconds) and exceptional sensitivity. This presentation highlights recent developments and experimental results achieved with the MR-TOF-MS at TITAN. The recent results include first-time mass measurement of neutron-rich $^{136-138}$Sn isotopes near $N=82$ and their implications for studying the 2$^{nd}$ abundance peak in the rapid neutron capture process (*r*-process) [1].

Room: Galileo & Einstein Approximately half of the nuclei heavier than iron are produced by the rapid neutron capture process ($r$ process). [1] The r process can be simulated with nuclear reaction network codes for which nuclear input data is essential. Particularly neutron capture reaction rates and $\beta$-decay $Q$ values are important, both of which are dependent on nuclear masses. However, many neutron-rich nuclei have measured masses with rather large uncertainties, and the isomeric states might be even lesser known. [2] Improving the accuracy of the measured masses for these nuclei also leads to more precise reaction rates which in turn lead to reduced uncertainties in the $r$-process simulations. The improved masses also affect the beta decay $Q$ values which are important for the heating rate of the $r$ process. JYFLTRAP, a double Penning trap mass spectrometer [3], at the IGISOL facility has been utilised to accurately measure the masses of several neutron-rich isotopes. Combined with the phase-imaging ion cyclotron resonance (PI-ICR) technique [4], several low-lying isomeric states have been successfully resolved [5,6]. While currently not widely used in astrophysical simulations, isomeric states can have substantial effect on the $r$-process outcome. [7] In my presentation, example cases of measured isomeric states are presented with updated reaction rates and their effects on the $r$-process abundances and heating rate.

Room: Galileo & Einstein Bound-state beta decay is an exotic nuclear process in which the emitted electron is created directly into a vacant atomic orbital rather than being released into the continuum. This rare decay mode becomes significantly more probable in highly charged ions and requires long-duration storage measurements, conditions that are uniquely achievable at storage ring facilities. To date, all experimental studies of bound-state beta decay have been conducted at the Experimental Storage Ring (ESR) at the GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research in Darmstadt, Germany. In this talk, I will present recent results from the FAIR Phase-0 program at the ESR, with a focus on the first-ever direct measurement of bound-state beta decay in fully ionized thallium ($^{205}$Tl$^{81+}$). The experimentally determined half-life deviates significantly from theoretical estimates, with potential implications for our understanding of elemental abundances in the early universe [1] and solar neutrinos [2]. I will also discuss the next planned experiment at the ESR: a measurement of both the continuum and bound-state beta decay of $^{134}$Cs, a key waiting-point nucleus along the *s*-process nucleosynthesis path.

Room: Galileo & Einstein A Multi-Reflection Time-of-Flight Mass-Spectrometer (MR-ToF-MS) [1], a device that rapidly separates ions based on their mass-over-charge ratios, has been incorporated to the Ion-Guide Isotope-Separator On-Line (IGISOL) facility [2]. At IGISOL, a variety of radioactive beams can be produced via fusion-evaporation, fission or multinucleon-transfer reactions. The continuous ion beam is accelerated to 30 kV, and mass-separated with a dipole magnet before it is injected to a radio-frequency quadrupole cooler and buncher (RFQ-CB). To facilitate narrow ion bunches for the MR-ToF-MS measurements, a miniaturized radiofrequency quadrupole cooler-buncher was recently commissioned at IGISOL [3]. It delivers ion bunches with small longitudinal emittance to the MR-ToF-MS, which consists of a stack of mirror and lens electrodes on both sides of the trap. The MR-ToF-MS is operated utilizing a pulsed drift tube to trap ions on closed paths between the mirror electrodes, where ion masses disperse over time-of-flight. In this overview, the IGISOL MR-ToF-MS, and the recent on-line measurement results, such as the mass measurements of the isomeric states of the N= Z nucleus 94Ag, are presented. References [1] W. R.

Room: Galileo & Einstein The CARIBU facility just conpleted an upgrade to nuCARIBU where the fission products are now obtained from neutron-induced fission of 235U instead of the spontaneous fission of 252Cf used previously. This new source is more intense and should provide access to even more exotic nuclides and allow extending the mass measurement campaigns on very neutron-rich isotopes that were performed at CARIBU over the last decade. This new campaign will use an MR-TOF spectrometer instead of the Penning trap mass spectrometer used previously, sacrificing the utmost accuracy for higher sensitivity for the shortest-lived isotopes. The novel facility and its expected reach will be presented.

Room: Galileo & Einstein The ISOLTRAP experiment [1] is a multi-ion-trap mass spectrometer located at ISOLDE/CERN for high-precision mass measurements of artificially produced, short-lived, exotic radionuclides far from stability. Experimentally, ISOLTRAP uses multi-reflection time-of-flight and Penning-trap mass spectrometry for absolute and relative atomic mass measurements. Following Einstein's famous mass-energy equivalence, $E=mc^{2}$, the measured masses can be related to nuclear binding energies which reflect the underlying interactions and structure in the nucleus. Knowledge of the binding energies therefore allows the study of nuclear structure and nuclear astrophysics while precise mass measurements have also applications in fundamental physics such as neutrino or weak interaction studies. This contribution will highlight recent mass measurements at ISOLTRAP with a focus on the neutron-deficient $^{97, 98}\mathrm{Cd}$ ground states in vicinity of the self-conjugate doubly-magic $^{100}\mathrm{Sn}$ and the high-lying 25/2+ isomer $^{97n}\mathrm{Cd}$ as well as the first mass measurements of the neutron-rich $^{209,210,212}\mathrm{Hg}$. In addition, recent technical developments at ISOLTRAP, such as the first online experiments using a linear Paul trap for mass-selective re-trapping [2] and a temperature stabilization system for the multi-reflection time-of-flight mass spectrometer will be presented, which pave the way for mass measurements of more exotic nuclides at ISOLDE.

10:50 AM - 11:20 AM
Room: Galileo & Einstein In the quest to measure the masses of the most exotic species available at TRIUMF, the TITAN facility has transitioned from a Penning-trap to a Multi-Reflection Time-Of-Flight (MR-TOF) mass spectrometer. The latter has permitted measurements of yields with species less than 0.01 particles per second as well as half-life determinations. With an extraordinary dynamic range, TITAN has tackled both sides of the valley of stability, moving closer to the driplines. For studies of the rapid-proton-capture process, measurements of Ga-60 and Sr-74 have been performed. More recent collaborations with beam development have permitted measurements within the r-process pathway like Zn-83 and Sn-138. A selection of recent developments, results, and their impact will be shown.

The Crust Of Accreting Neutron Stars: Role Of Nuclear Binding Energies
- Nikolai Shchechilin (Universite Libre de Bruxelles)
11:50 AM - 12:10 PM
Room: Galileo & Einstein The crust of neutron stars in soft X-ray transients is heated up by nuclear reactions induced by hydrostatic compression during periods of active accretion. These periods alternate with quiescent phases, during which X-ray telescopes in space have monitored a gradual decrease in the thermal emission from the surface of a dozen neutron stars [1]. The exact location of heating sources and the crustal composition represent crucial parameters for the detailed modeling of the neutron star crust cooling and the correct interpretation of observational data [2]. They depend on the nuclear reaction flows which extend up to the neutron-drip line and beyond and are mainly governed by the binding energies of extremely neutron-rich nuclei. A large part of these nuclides is not yet accessible to terrestrial nuclear facilities. Hence, the reaction networks are forced to rely on theoretical predictions for nuclear masses. In this talk, I will show to what extent the nuclear evolution is sensitive to the applied nuclear mass model [3-5] and identify the key neutron-rich isotopes that are of particular interest for future laboratory measurements. In addition, I will present our latest efforts in building nuclear mass tables along with the relevant nuclear physics input for the wide range of astrophysical applications. References 1.

Room: Galileo & Einstein The synthesis of elements via the rapid-neutron capture process depends sensitively on the one-neutron separation energy, which in turns is influenced by nuclear structure effects such as shell closure and deformation. It has already been demonstrated for the light isotopes that standard magic numbers such as 20, 28 vanish while new ones emerge as nuclei gets more neutron rich. Such situation can be expected for the N = 82 and 126 shell closures relevant for the r-process. In between shells, the nucleus is also observed to get deformed, which affect the pathway of the r-process. In this talk I will present mass measurements, using the Canadian Penning Trap (CPT) at the former CARIBU facility, of neutron-rich Rh isotopes, which lie in a region of rapid shape transitions. I will also discuss planned measurements using the CPT at the N=126 Factory aimed at studying changes in the N = 126 shell closure.

Room: Galileo & Einstein The Nuclear Physics European Collaboration Committee (NuPECC) recently published its Long Range Plan (LRP) 2024 for European Nuclear Physics [1]. The document is a result of a large community effort, involving researchers in various meetings, workshops and thematical working groups. Nuclear masses and their importance for nuclear astrophysics is highlighted throughout the document, from the fundamental questions regarding the origins of elements to the recently developed methods opening new opportunities, yielding recommendations concerning methods, radioactive beam facilities as well as theoretical, computational and collaborative aspects in nuclear astrophysics. In this contribution, I will give a brief overview on the highlighted nuclear astrophysics themes and the role of nuclear masses in the NuPECC LRP2024, together with its relevant recommendations.

Room: Galileo & Einstein High precision mass measurement using ion traps continue to play an important role in shaping our understanding of the nucleus. State-of-the-art spectrometers nowadays can reach far into the neutron-rich terra incognita, away from the valley of stability, where new structure phenomena including e.g. weakening or disappearance of classical nuclear shells or rapid shape transitions can be observed and studied via their signatures in the mass surface. At the same time, rapid changes in the mass surface directedly impact the rapid neutron-capture process pathway and thus our understanding of the origin of heavy elements. In this talk we will discuss technical aspects of high precision mass measurements using ion traps tailored for ISOL and In-Flight facilities, particularly drawing from TRIUMF’s Ion Trap for Atomic and Nuclear science (TITAN) [1] located at the ISAC (TRIUMF, Vancouver) ISOL type facility and the FRS Ion Catcher experiment [2] located at the GSI/FAIR (Darmstadt, Germany) In-Flight facility. Among others, we will highlight recent results of mass measurements of neutron-rich isotopes e.g. investigating the evolution of neutron-rich tin and gallium isotopes and their impact on r-process network calculations but also discuss the emergence of features in the mass surface beyond N = 116 in ytterbium. Finally, we will give an outlook towards future mass measurement campaigns pushing the limits of known masses beyond the Sn-132 and Pb-208 diagonal and discuss links between mass measurements reveling nuclear structure and astrophysical implications.

Room: Galileo & Einstein Machine Learning has become a powerful tool in science. Various machine learning approaches including Neural Networks, Support Vector Machines, Gaussian Process Regression, and Ensemble of Trees have been used to either model binding energies directly or to improve binding energy predictions from existing models. This talk will discuss the successes, benefits, and disadvantages of various approaches. Rules will be proposed with the goal of helping to advance the applicability of Machine Learning based binding energy models. Additionally, a composite model called the Four Model Tree Ensemble will be discussed which fits the Atomic Mass Evaluation 2020 data with a standard deviation of 76 keV and an independent compilation including 33 more recent measurements with a standard deviation of 376 keV. A discussion of extrapolations approaching the neutron dripline will also be included.

Room: Galileo & Einstein Nuclear masses of neutron-deficient N$\sim$Z nuclei are pivotal for modeling astrophysical processes, such as the rapid proton-capture (rp) and $\nu$p processes, which drive nucleosynthesis in X-ray bursts and proton-rich supernova ejecta. These masses determine proton separation energies, reaction Q-values, and waiting points, directly influencing reaction flows, light curves, and p-nuclei abundances. This talk presents recent advances in high-precision mass measurements at the Ion Guide Isotope Separator On-Line (IGISOL) facility in Finland and the Rare-RI Ring at RIKEN, Japan, focusing on their technical innovations and astrophysical impacts. At IGISOL, the JYFLTRAP double Penning trap, coupled with an inductively heated hot-cavity catcher laser ion source, has enabled mass measurements of exotic nuclides, like $^{95-97}$Ag, with $\sim$1 keV/c$^2$ precision, using time-of-flight ion-cyclotron resonance (TOF-ICR) and phase-imaging ion-cyclotron resonance (PI-ICR) techniques to achieve a relative precision of 10$^{-8}$. These measurements, particularly of $^{95}$Ag and the $^{96}$Ag isomers, have refined reaction rates for the rp-process, impacting X-ray burst modeling, and confirmed the robustness of the N=50 shell closure. Additionally, the Multi-Reflection Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometer (MR-TOF-MS) at IGISOL has targeted the A$\sim$84 region, addressing the Zr-Nb cycle’s role in limiting rp-process flows (although some masses in this region have been measured at RIKEN with MR-TOF-MS). At RIKEN, the Rare-RI Ring employs isochronous mass spectrometry (IMS) and B$\rho$-TOF methods to access heavy N$\sim$Z nuclei (A=70–100), achieving a relative precision of 10$^{-6}$–10$^{-7}$ for exotic nuclei with half-lives of 100 ns to 1 ms. Approved experiments using a $^{124}$Xe beam aim to measure masses near $^{100}$Sn, critical for rp- and $\nu$p-process termination cycles, like Sn-Sb-Te. Technical advances, including isochronous optics and high-efficiency ion extraction, enhance measurement precision to $\sim$10–100 keV. These results will provide critical inputs for modeling waiting points and p-nuclei production in the future. The talk will highlight achievements, such as resolving the $^{96}$Ag astromer and incorporating measured masses of $^{95-96}$Ag to refine reaction rates, technical advances in all modern mass measurement techniques (existing and proposed, using Penning Trap, MR-TOF MS, IMS and B$\rho$-TOF methods with storage ring and beam line) for the A$\sim$70–100 region, and outline future plans to measure N$\sim$Z nuclei, resolving nuclear structure puzzles and refining astrophysical models. Collaborative efforts with facilities, like the FRS/SuperFRS Ion Catcher at GSI/FAIR, will further extend the reach of these techniques, paving the way for the next 25 years of nuclear mass spectrometry in astrophysics.

Impact Of Experimental Mass Of $^{70}$Kr On The $^{68}$Se Waiting-Point In Rp-Process
- Xing Xu (Institute of Modern Physics, CAS)
4:20 PM - 4:40 PM
Room: Galileo & Einstein The recent mass measurement of $^{70}$Kr using the $B\rho$-defined isochronous mass spectrometry yields a mass excess of $-41320(140)$ keV, indicating a 220-keV increase in binding energy compared to the AME2020 prediction. We utilize this experimental mass to probe its impact on the potential waiting point $^{68}$Se in $r$p-process and quantitatively constrain the $2p$-capture reaction flow that can bypass this waiting point. Our investigation shows that the more tightly bound nature of $^{70}$Kr enhances this $2p$-capture reaction flow up to a factor of four. While this enhancement reduces the effective half-life of $^{68}$Se, the nucleus remains a waiting point. The dominate uncertainty in determining the effective half-life of and reaction flow around $^{68}$Se originates from the large experimental error in the $^{70}$Kr mass. A more precise $^{70}$Kr mass measurement is highly desired.
