Firstly, it presents a precise half-life determination of 11C, leading to the most precise ft-value for a beta decay transition between mirror nuclides, an important advance in the testing of the electroweak sector of the Standard Model. Secondly, it describes a high-precision mass measurement of 56Cu, a critical nucleus for determining the path of the astrophysical rapid-proton capture process, performed by the author using the LEBIT Penning trap at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory. This new measurement resolves discrepancies in previously-reported calculated mass excesses. In addition, the thesis also presents the construction and testing of a radio-frequency quadrupole cooler and buncher that will be part of the future N 126 factory at Argonne National Laboratory aimed at producing nuclei of interest for the astrophysical rapid-neutron capture process for the first time.</p>...3231438Precision Measurements to Test the Standard Model and for Explosive Nuclear Astrophysics17481942https://www.gandhi.com.mx/precision-measurements-to-test-the-standard-model-and-for-explosive-nuclear-astrophysics-9783030307783/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3373346/b4c38d07-9b05-47c5-bd4e-5e3dc930de14.jpg?v=638385281607630000https://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3371173/b4c38d07-9b05-47c5-bd4e-5e3dc930de14.jpg?v=638385278677230000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20199783030307783_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_<p>This thesis presents two significant results in the field of precision measurements in low-energy nuclear physics.
