An investigation into the morphology of radio sources
(University of Western Cape, 2021)
Radio galaxies are some of the most unusual and powerful objects in the Universe
and are therefore vital for so many reasons. Studies of Radio-Loud Active
Galactic Nuclei (AGN) gives us the potential to enhance our ...
Measuring transitional matrix elements using first-order perturbation theory in Coulomb excitation
(University of the Western Cape, 2019)
The aim of nuclear structure physics is to study the interplay between singleparticle
and collective degrees of freedom in nuclei and to explain how nuclei
get excited and decay under di erent external conditions, such ...
The interstellar medium scaling relations in cosmological simulations
(University of the Western Cape, 2022)
This work presents the scaling relations for the redshift zero galaxies in the SIMBA1
cosmological hydrodynamic simulations. The aim is to test the degree to which the
SIMBA simulations reproduce the physical properties ...
E2/M1 mixing in the Jπ= 5/2+ to 3/2+ transition in 21Na and its relation to the 20Ne(p,y ) stellar reaction rate
(University of the Western Cape, 2022)
In the above, M is the total mass of the molecular cloud, R is its radius, k is Boltzmann's constant, G is
the gravitational constant, T is the cloud temperature, m is the mean molecular weight, and is the cloud
molecular ...
Pre-equilibrium cross section calculations with a realistic effective nucleon-nucleon interaction
(University of the Western Cape, 1995)
The principle aim of this work is to improve the way in which pre-equilibrium double differential
cross-sections are currently calculated [1, 2, 3, 4]. The theoretical basis for these
calculations is the Multistep Direct ...
