Heavy-ion collisions and fission dynamics with the time-dependent Hartree–Fock theory and its extensions

C Simenel, AS Umar - Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics, 2018 - Elsevier
Microscopic methods and tools to describe nuclear dynamics have considerably been
improved in the past few years. They are based on the time-dependent Hartree–Fock …

General description of fission observables: GEF model code

KH Schmidt, B Jurado, C Amouroux, C Schmitt - Nuclear Data Sheets, 2016 - Elsevier

describes the observables for spontaneous fission, neutron-induced fission and, more …

Heavy-ion fusion reactions at extreme sub-barrier energies

CL Jiang, BB Back, KE Rehm, K Hagino… - The European Physical …, 2021 - Springer
The study of fusion reactions at extreme sub-barrier energies has seen an increased interest
in recent years, although difficult to measure due to their very small cross sections. Such …

How to extend the chart of nuclides?

GG Adamian, NV Antonenko, A Diaz-Torres… - The European Physical …, 2020 - Springer
In the past 85 years the number of known nuclides increased by more than a factor of ten,
resulting in 4000 presently known isotopes of 118 elements. This considerable progress we …

Coupled-channels calculations for nuclear reactions: From exotic nuclei to superheavy elements

K Hagino, K Ogata, AM Moro - Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics, 2022 - Elsevier
Atomic nuclei are composite systems, and they may be dynamically excited during nuclear
reactions. Such excitations are not only relevant to inelastic scattering but they also affect …

Advances in the direct study of carbon burning in massive stars

G Fruet, S Courtin, M Heine, DG Jenkins, P Adsley… - Physical Review Letters, 2020 - APS
The C 12+ C 12 fusion reaction plays a critical role in the evolution of massive stars and also
