Analysis of possible systematic errors of the Oslo methodA.C. Larsen et al., Phys. Rev. C 83, 034315 (2011)
• Measure particle-g coincidences• Unfold spectra at each E 1) • Apply the first-generation
method 2)
• Ansatz: First-generation matrix P(E, E) (E - E) T(E) 3) • Normalization• Examples of level density

Summary
Oslo Seminar, Oslo, 6 December, 2012
• Simultaneous extraction of level density and g-strength function• Examples from A = 40 – 230• Number of thermal quasi-particles determines number of levels• Constant temperature level density• Fluctuations for lighter even-even nuclei
