Description
A summary of recent results of research at iThemba LABS is given. This includes high-resolution measurements of the fine structure of isoscalar giant quadrupole resonances, a new programme to measure fusion barrier distributions for reactions leading to the formation of superheavy elements, measurements of high-energy γ-rays from (p,γ) reactions using the AFRODITE array of HpGe clover detectors, and a comparison of the vibrational band structures of 160Yb, measured with the AFRODITE array, with the X(5)-β2n model. A summary of future developments is given
