Biography
Paddy Regan joined the academic staff in the Physics Department at Surrey in 1994 after holding postdoctoral research positions at the University of Pennsylvania, USA and the Australian National University in Canberra. Paddy is the MSc in Radiation and Environmental Protection course coordinator. He was elected a Fellow of the Institute of Physics in 2000. He has been a Visiting Research Associate at the Wright Nuclear Structure Laboratory, Yale University since 2002 and an Adjunct Professor at the University of Notre Dame (London Programme) since 2003. From 2001 until 2010, he was the Collaboration Spokesperson for the Stopped RISING Collaboration which studied the internal structure of exotic forms of atomic nuclei following either metastable state or beta-decay. He has served as the Chair of the GSI Users Executive Committee (2009) and and as a member of the Science and Technologies Facilities Council (STFC) Education, Training and Careers (ETC) Committee (2007-2011). He is the current Chair of the PreSPEC International Steering Committee, which oversees the experimental programme for nuclear structure physics at GSI/FAIR. He is elected member of the NuSTAR Board for the FAIR project in Darmstadt, Germany.
He has successfully supervised 20 PhD students and over 100 MSc research dissertation projects to completion to date. He has coauthored more than 200 refereed papers on nuclear structure and radiation detection research in the scientific literature and given more than 80 invited international conference and workshop presentations on his research. He also pursues research into measurements of naturally occurring radioactive materials (NORM) in the environment using applications of the gamma-ray spectroscopic techniques he uses in his more fundamental research projects. He is also regularly engaged by the TV, radio and written press media on issues related to radiation and nuclear physics. In this capacity he has made over 100 mainstream TV and radio appearances on issues related to radiation physics in the last three years. In his spare time Paddy plays a poor game of squash, even worse golf and tries to do the occasional sponsored run for the Mental Health Charity MIND. He is married to Susie , a nurse, and they have four school-age children, Hannah, John, Sarah and Rebekah.
Research Interests
Paddy specialises in using gamma-ray and charged-particle spectroscopic techniques to study exotic forms of nuclear matter, with particular emphasis on unusual proton to neutron ratios and the behavour of nuclei at large angular momentum. This includes work using radioactive ion-beams, produced following projectile fragmentation reactions to study decays of excited nuclear states in very exotic nuclear species. He is also interested in the interface between how atomic nuclei generate and hold angular momentum by competing single-particle and collective (rotational and vibrational) modes. He is also intertested in measurements of naturally occurring radioactive materials (NORM) in environmental samples using applications of the gamma-ray spectroscopic techniques he uses in his more fundamental research projects.
Research Collaborations
Paddy has led experimental nuclear physics experiments at laboratories in the UK, Denmark, Australia, Canada, South Africa, France, Germany, Italy and the USA. He has been the spokesperson for a number of international programmes to produce and study the internal structure of new, radioactive isotopes, including investigations into the variation of nuclear shapes with increasing angular momentum. He is a member of the GSI-NUSTAR Board of Representatives. He is the Chair of the GSI Users Excecutive Committee and has been the Spokesperson for the Stopped Beam RISING Collaboration since 2001.

(2012) 'Multiple β - Decaying states in 194Re: Shape evolution in neutron-rich osmium isotopes'. American Physical Society Physical Review C - Nuclear Physics, 85 (3) Article number 034301 Full text is available at: http://epubs.surrey.ac.uk/532653/
Abstract
decays from heavy, neutron-rich nuclei with A∼190 have been investigated following their production via the relativistic projectile fragmentation of an E/A=1 GeV 208Pb primary beam on a ∼2.5 g/cm2 9Be target. The reaction products were separated and identified using the GSI FRagment Separator (FRS) and stopped in the RISING active stopper. γ decays were observed and correlated with these secondary ions on an event-by-event basis such that γ-ray transitions following from both internal (isomeric) and β decays were recorded. A number of discrete, β-delayed γ-ray transitions associated with β decays from 194Re to excited states in 194Os have been observed, including previously reported decays from the yrast Iπ=(6+) state. Three previously unreported γ-ray transitions with energies 194, 349, and 554 keV are also identified; these transitions are associated with decays from higher spin states in 194Os. The results of these investigations are compared with theoretical predictions from Nilsson multi-quasiparticle (MQP) calculations. Based on lifetime measurements and the observed feeding pattern to states in 194Os, it is concluded that there are three β−-decaying states in 194Re.

Abstract
The neutron-rich lead isotopes, up to Pb216, have been studied for the first time, exploiting the fragmentation of a primary uranium beam at the FRS-RISING setup at GSI. The observed isomeric states exhibit electromagnetic transition strengths which deviate from state-of-the-art shell-model calculations. It is shown that their complete description demands the introduction of effective three-body interactions and two-body transition operators in the conventional neutron valence space beyond Pb208. © 2012 American Physical Society.

Abstract
Neutron-rich isotopes around lead, beyond N= 126, have been studied exploiting the fragmentation of an uranium primary beam at the FRS-RISING setup at GSI. For the first time β-decay half-lives of Bi and Tl isotopes have been derived. The half-lives have been extracted using a numerical simulation developed for experiments in high-background conditions. Comparison with state of the art models used in r-process calculations is given, showing a systematic underestimation of the experimental values, at variance from close-lying nuclei. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.

Abstract
We report on a gamma-ray coincidence analysis using a mixed array of hyperpure germanium and cerium-doped lanthanum tri-bromide (LaBr(3):Ce) scintillation detectors to study nuclear electromagnetic transition rates in the pico-to-nanosecond time regime in (33,34)P and (33)S following fusion-evaporation reactions between an (18)O beam and an isotopically enriched (18)O implanted tantalum target. Energies from decay gamma-rays associated with the reaction residues were measured in event-by-event coincidence mode, with the measured time difference information between the pairs of gamma-rays in each event also recorded using the ultra-fast coincidence timing technique. The experiment used the good full-energy peak resolution of the LaBr(3):Ce detectors coupled with their excellent timing responses in order to determine the excited state lifetime associated with the lowest lying, cross-shell, I(π)=4(-) "intruder" state previously reported in the N=19 isotone (34)P. The extracted lifetime is consistent with a mainly single-particle M2 multipolarity associated with a f(7/2)→d(5/2) single particle transition.

Y produced in projectile fission of
U'. Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 381 (1)Full text is available at: http://epubs.surrey.ac.uk/738075/
Abstract
The population of Zr following the β decay of Y produced in the projectile fission of U at the GSI facility in Darmstadt, Germany has been studied. Y is known to decay into Zr via two states, one of high spin and the other low spin. These states preferentially populate different levels in the Zr daughter. In this paper the intensities of transitions in Zr observed are compared with those from the decay of the low-spin level studied at the TRISTAN facility at Brookhaven National Laboratory and of the high-spin level studied at the JOSEF separator at the Kernforschungsanlage Jülich. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.

Abstract
We propose to install a storage ring at an ISOL-type radioactive beam facility for the first time. Specifically, we intend to setup the heavy-ion, low-energy ring TSR at the HIE-ISOLDE facility in CERN, Geneva. Such a facility will provide a capability for experiments with stored secondary beams that is unique in the world. The envisaged physics programme is rich and varied, spanning from investigations of nuclear ground-state properties and reaction studies of astrophysical relevance, to investigations with highly-charged ions and pure isomeric beams. The TSR might also be employed for removal of isobaric contaminants from stored ion beams and for systematic studies within the neutrino beam programme. In addition to experiments performed using beams recirculating within the ring, cooled beams can also be extracted and exploited by external spectrometers for high-precision measurements. The existing TSR, which is presently in operation at the Max-Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics in Heidelberg, is well-suited and can be employed for this purpose. The physics cases as well as technical details of the existing ring facility and of the beam and infrastructure requirements at HIE-ISOLDE are discussed in the present technical design report. © 2012 EDP Sciences and Springer.

Abstract
Heavy neutron-rich nuclei were populated via relativistic energy fragmentation of a E/A=1 GeV 208Pb beam. The nuclei of interest were selected and identified by a fragment separator and then implanted in a passive plastic stopper. Delayed rays following internal isomeric decays were detected by the RISING array. Experimental information was obtained on a number of nuclei with Z=73-80 (Ta-Hg), providing new information both on the prolate-oblate transitional region as well as on the N=126 closed shell nuclei.

Neutron-rich nuclei beyond N = 126 in the lead region were populated by fragmenting a 238U beam at 1 GeV A on a Be target and then separated by the Fragment Separator (FRS) at GSI. Their isomeric decays were observed, enabling study of the shell structure of neutron-rich nuclei around the Z=82 shell closure. Some preliminary results are reported in this paper.

Abstract
The 8π spectrometer at TRIUMF-ISAC consists of 20 Compton-suppressed germanium detectors and various auxiliary devices. The Ge array, once used for studies of nuclei at high angular momentum, has been transformed into the world's most powerful device dedicated to radioactive-decay studies. Many improvements in the spectrometer have been made, including a high-throughput data acquisition system, installation of a moving tape collector, incorporation of an array of 20 plastic scintillators for β-particle tagging, 5 Si(Li) detectors for conversion electrons, and 10 BaF detectors for fast-lifetime measurements. Experiments can be performed where data from all detectors are collected simultaneously, resulting in a very detailed view of the nucleus through radioactive decay. A number of experimental programmes have been launched that take advantage of the versatility of the spectrometer, and the intense beams available at TRIUMF-ISAC. © 2006 American Institute of Physics.
