Abstract

The impact of nuclear physics on astrophysical r-process models is discussed, emphasizing the importance of β-decay properties of neutron-rich nuclei. Several r-process motivated β-decay experiments performed at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory are presented. The experiments include the measurement of β-decay half-lives and neutron emission probabilities of nuclei in regions around ⁷⁸Ni₅₀; ⁹⁰Se₅₆; ¹⁰⁶Zr₆₆ and ¹²⁰Rh₇₄, as well as spectroscopic studies of ¹²⁰Pd₇₄. A summary on the different experimental techniques employed, data analysis, results and impact on model calculations is presented.
