Determining the Equation of State (EOS) of dense neutron-rich nuclear matter is a shared
goal of both nuclear physics and astrophysics. Except possible phase transitions, the density …

In this review article we discuss the present status of direct nuclear reactions and the nuclear
structure aspects one can study with them. We discuss the spectroscopic information we can …

Abstract The Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) will be the accelerator-based
flagship research facility in many basic sciences and their applications in Europe for the …

A kinematically complete quasifree (p, pn) experiment in inverse kinematics was performed
to study the structure of the Borromean nucleus B 17, which had long been considered to …

The body of experimental measurements of intermediate-energy reactions that remove a
single nucleon from a secondary beam of neutron-or proton-rich nuclei continues to grow …

Particle knockout scattering experiments, are fundamental for mapping the structure of
atomic nuclei,,,–, but their interpretation is often complicated by initial-and final-state …

The factorization scheme, based on the impulse approximation and the spectral function
formalism, has been recently generalized to allow the description of electromagnetic nuclear …

The field of nuclear science has considerably advanced since its beginning just over a
century ago. Today, the science of rare isotopes is on the cusp of a new era with theoretical …

The first γ-ray spectroscopy of Ar 52, with the neutron number N= 34, was measured using
the K 53 (p, 2 p) one-proton removal reaction at∼ 210 MeV/u at the RIBF facility. The 2 1+ …

A brief overview of various approaches to the optical-model description of nuclei is
presented. A survey of some of the formal aspects is given which links the Feshbach …
