The symmetry energy describes how the energy of nuclear matter rises as one goes away
from equal numbers of neutrons and protons. This is very important to describe neutron rich …

At the Laboratori Nazionali del Sud of INFN (INFN-LNS) in Catania, the construction of the
new Radioactive Ion Beams (RIBs) facility FRAISE (FRAgment In-flight SEparator) has …

We present a new experimental method to correlate the isotopic composition of intermediate
mass fragments (IMF) emitted at midrapidity in semiperipheral collisions with the emission …

Heavy-ion collisions have been widely used in the last decade to constrain the
parameterizations of the symmetry energy term of the nuclear equation of state (EOS) for …

The next years will see the completion of several new facilities at Istituto Nazionale di Fisica
Nucleare–Laboratori Nazionali del Sud (LNS) opening up new possibilities in the fields of …

In the last 15 years the FRIBs@ LNS facility has successfully produced Radioactive Ion
Beams using the In-Flight technique. We report on the current status and future perspectives …

We perform a comprehensive analysis of complete fusion cross section data with the aim to
derive, in a completely data-driven way, a model suitable to predict the integrated cross …

The gamma decay of the first excited 4.44 MeV 2+ level of 12 C, populated by inelastic
scattering of proton and 16 O beams at various energies was studied in order to test γ-ray …

In heavy ion collisions at low energy (E/A< 10–15 MeV/nucleon) the N/Z ratio in the entrance
channel is closely related to the isospin degree of freedom and can influence the reaction …

The drift of the isospin degree of freedom (IDOF) is experimentally visualized through the
wide-range angular distribution and the beam energy dependence of the isospin …
