We present the performance of Multi-gap timing RPCs under irradiation by fully stripped relativistic ions (gamma*beta=2.7, Z=1-6). A time resolution of 80 ps at high efficiency has been obtained by just using standard `off the shelf 4-gap timing RPCs from the new HADES ToF wall. The resolution worsened to 100 ps for ~ 1 kHz/cm2 proton flux and for ~ 100 Hz/cm2 Carbon flux. The chambers were operated at a standard field of E=100 kV/cm and showed a high stability during the experiment, supporting the fact that RPCs are a convenient choice when accommodating a very broad range of ionizing particles is needed. The data provides insight in the region of very highly ionizing particles (up to x 36 mips) and can be used to constrain the existing avalanche and Space-Charge models far from the usual `mip valley. The implications of these results for the general case of detection based on secondary processes (n, gamma) resulting in highly ionizing particles with characteristic energy distributions will be discussed, together with the nature of the time-charge correlation curve.

The evolution of the traditional nuclear magic numbers away from the valley of stability is an active field of research. Experimental efforts focus on providing key spectroscopic information that will shed light into the structure of exotic nuclei an
d understanding the driving mechanism behind the shell evolution. In this work, we investigate the Z = 6 spin-orbit shell gap towards the neutron dripline. To do so, we employed $^{A}$N(p,2p)$^{A-1}$C quasi-free scattering reactions to measure the proton component of the 2$^+_1$ state of $^{16,18,20}$C. The experimental findings support the notion of a moderate reduction of the proton 1p$_{1/2}$-1p$_{3/2}$ spin-orbit splitting, at variance to recent claims for a prevalent Z = 6 magic number towards the neutron dripline.
The nuclear shell structure, which originates in the nearly independent motion of nucleons in an average potential, provides an important guide for our understanding of nuclear structure and the underlying nuclear forces. Its most remarkable fingerpr
int is the existence of the so-called `magic numbers of protons and neutrons associated with extra stability. Although the introduction of a phenomenological spin-orbit (SO) coupling force in 1949 helped explain the nuclear magic numbers, its origins are still open questions. Here, we present experimental evidence for the smallest SO-originated magic number (subshell closure) at the proton number 6 in 13-20C obtained from systematic analysis of point-proton distribution radii, electromagnetic transition rates and atomic masses of light nuclei. Performing ab initio calculations on 14,15C, we show that the observed proton distribution radii and subshell closure can be explained by the state-of-the-art nuclear theory with chiral nucleon-nucleon and three-nucleon forces, which are rooted in the quantum chromodynamics.
Multi-step effects between bound, resonant, and non-resonant states have been investigated by the continuum-discretized coupled-channels method (CDCC). In the CDCC, a resonant state is treated as multiple states fragmented in a resonance energy regio
n, although it is described as a single state in usual coupled-channel calculations. For such the fragmented resonant states, one-step and multi-step contributions to the cross sections should be carefully discussed because the cross sections obtained by the one-step calculation depend on the number of those states, which corresponds to the size of the model space. To clarify the role of the multi-step effects, we propose the one-step calculation without model-space dependence for the fragmented resonant states. Furthermore, we also discuss the multi-step effects between the ground, $2^{+}_{1}$ resonant, and non-resonant states in $^6$He for proton inelastic scattering.
The evolution of the N=50 gap is analyzed as a function of the occupation of the proton f5/2 and p3/2 orbits. It is based on experimental atomic masses, using three different methods of one or two-neutron separation energies of ground or isomeric sta
tes. We show that the effect of correlations, which is maximized at Z=32 could be misleading with respect to the determination of the size of the shell gap, especially when using the method with two-neutron separation energies. From the methods that are the least perturbed by correlations, we estimate the N=50 spherical shell gap in 78Ni. Whether 78Ni would be a rigid spherical or deformed nucleus is discussed in comparison with other nuclei in which similar nucleon-nucleon forces are at play.
A dense form of matter is formed in relativistic heavy ion collisions. The constituent degrees of freedom in this dense matter are currently unknown. Long-range, forward-backward multiplicity correlations (LRC) are expected to arise due to multiple p
artonic interactions. Model independent and dependent arguments suggest that such correlations are due to multiple partonic interactions. These correlations are predicted in the context of the Dual Parton Model (DPM). The DPM describes soft partonic processes and hadronization. This model indicates that the underlying mechanism creating these long-range multiplicity correlations in the bulk matter is due to multiple partonic interactions. In this thesis, long-range multiplicity correlations have been studied in heavy ion (Au+Au and Cu+Cu) and hadron-hadron ({it pp}) collisions. The behavior has been studied as a function of pseudorapidity gap ($Deltaeta$) about $eta$ = 0, the centrality, atomic number, and incident energy dependence of the colliding particles. Strong, long-range correlations ($Deltaeta >$ 1.0) as a function of $Deltaeta$ are found for central collisions of %(full overlap) heavy ions at an energy of $sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV. This indicates substantial amounts of dense partonic matter are formed in central heavy ion collisions at an energy of $sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV.
