DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Mathis Wiedeking (Lawrence Berkeley National Laborat
 ory)\n\n【Abstruct】\nUnderstanding how atomic nuclei absorb and emit γ
  radiation is of central importance to nuclear physics\, nuclear astrophys
 ics and applications. Over the past decade\, we have focused on developing
  and applying innovative experimental and analytical methods to study the 
 nuclear quasi-continuum\, with particular emphasis on photon strength func
 tions (PSF) and nuclear level densities (NLD). These quantities are key in
 puts for modeling reaction rates within the Hauser-Feshbach statistical fr
 amework\, which in turn supports nucleosynthesis calculations in stellar a
 nd explosive astrophysical environments\, as well as a wide range of appli
 ed modeling efforts from medical isotope production and nuclear energy to 
 nonproliferation and national security.\nIn this seminar\, I will present 
 an overview of recent advances in PSF and NLD measurements\, including ext
 ensions to the Oslo Method\, as well as newly established techniques such 
 as the Shape Method. These analytical approaches enable the systematic and
  consistent extraction of statistical nuclear properties across wide regio
 ns of the nuclear chart. I will highlight how these efforts have contribut
 ed to studies of i-process and p-process nucleosynthesis.\nThis material i
