EMMA is a new experiment designed for cosmic-ray composition studies around the knee energy operating at the shallow depth underground in the Pyhäsalmi mine, Finland. The array has sufficient coverage and resolution to determine the multiplicity, the lateral density distribution and the arrival direction of high-energy muons on an event by event basis. Preliminary results on the muon multiplicity extracted using one detector station of the array are presented.

Structure of 115Ag studied by β− decays of 115Pd and 115mPd
Rissanen, Juho; Kurpeta, Jan; Elomaa, Viki-Veikko; Eronen, Tommi; Hakala, Jani; Jokinen, Ari; Kankainen, Anu; Moore, Iain; Penttilä, Heikki; Plochocki, A.; Saastamoinen, Antti; Urban, W.; Weber, Christine; Äystö, Juha (American Physical Society, 2012)The excited levels of 115Ag have been studied via the beta decay of 115Pd and 115Pdm. The beta-decay schemes for both states have been considerably extended, especially the scheme following the decay of 115Pdm which ... -

Among these, the ... -
Superfluid properties of the inner crust of neutron stars
Pastore, Alessandro; Baroni, S.; Losa, C. (American Physical Society, 2011)We investigated the superfluid properties of the inner crust of neutron stars, solving the Hartree-FockBogoliubov equations in spherical Wigner-Seitz cells. Using realistic two-body interactions in the pairing channel, we ... -
