Motivations for Early High-Profile FRIB Experiments
read the original abstract
This white paper is the result of a collaboration by those that attended a workshop at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB), organized by the FRIB Theory Alliance (FRIB-TA), on Theoretical Justifications and Motivations for Early High-Profile FRIB Experiments. It covers a wide range of topics related to the science that will be explored at FRIB. After a brief introduction, the sections address: (II) Overview of theoretical methods, (III) Experimental capabilities, (IV) Structure, (V) Near-threshold Physics, (VI) Reaction mechanisms, (VII) Nuclear equations of state, (VIII) Nuclear astrophysics, (IX) Fundamental symmetries, and (X) Experimental design and uncertainty quantification.

Impact of nuclear masses on r-process nucleosynthesis: bulk properties versus shell effects
r-process abundances are insensitive to bulk nuclear mass variations but driven by local shell effects despite their minor contribution to neutron separation energies.
