The production of about half of the heavy elements found in nature is assigned to a specific
astrophysical nucleosynthesis process: the rapid neutron-capture process (r process) …

The astrophysical rapid neutron capture process or 'r process' of nucleosynthesis is believed
to be responsible for the production of approximately half the heavy element abundances …

This contribution reviews the present status on the available constraints to the nuclear
equation of state (EoS) around saturation density from nuclear structure calculations on …

The electric dipole response of atomic nuclei has attracted a lot of attention from
experimentalists and theorists in the last decade. This review gives an overview about the …

This review aims at giving a critical description of the theoretical researches conducted on
the low-lying dipole states traditionally denoted as Pygmy Dipole Resonances (PDR). A brief …

We use results from long-time core-collapse supernovae simulations to investigate the
impact of the late time evolution of the ejecta and of the nuclear physics input on the …

The rapid-neutron capture process (r process) is identified as the producer of about 50% of
elements heavier than iron. This process requires an astrophysical environment with an …

This review focuses on nuclear reactions in astrophysics and, more specifically, on reactions
with light ions (nucleons and α particles) proceeding via the strong interaction. It is intended …

The microscopic structure of the low-energy electric dipole response, commonly denoted as
pygmy dipole resonance (PDR), was studied for Sn 120 in a Sn 119 (d, p γ) Sn 120 …

Background: There is renewed interest in electric dipole strength distributions for a variety of
reasons including the extraction of the dipole polarizability related to properties of the …
