General Comments:

1987Po04, 1992Bo37: 44Cr produced and identified in Ni(58Ni,X), E=55 MeV/nucleon; measured fragment spectra using LISE3 spectrometer at GANIL accelerator facility.

1994Bl10, 1996Fa09: 44Cr produced in 9Be(58Ni,X), E=650 MeV/nucleon; measured fragment spectra using fragment separator at GSI accelerator facility

2007Do17: Ni(58Ni,X) E=74.5 MeV/nucleon 58Ni beam was produced at GANIL. Target was 250 mg/cm2 natural nickel. Fragments were selected by the α-LISE3 separator, identified with two micro-channel place (MCP) detectors and a setup consisting of silicon and Ge detectors by time of flight and energy loss, and implanted into double-sided silicon strip detectors (DSSSD). Measured E(p), I(p), implant-decay correlations. Deduced 44Cr T1/2, proton-emission probability.

2014Po05: Ni(58Ni,X) E=160 MeV/nucleon 58Ni beam was produced at National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory. Target was 580 mg/cm2 thick natural nickel. Products were selected by the A1900 fragment separator and identified by time of flight and energy loss information then slowed in an aluminum foil and stopped in the active volume of the optical time-projection chamber (OTPC) which was filled with a mixture of He, Ar, and n gases and used to track charged particles. Measured reaction products, half-life, E(p), production σ, proton energy distribution. See also 2012Po03.

Mass measurement: 2020Fu05: measured mass excess of g.s. using RIBBL2 separator at CSRe-HIRFL, Lanzhou.
