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 …

A summary of recent researches on nuclear dynamics with realistic microscopic quantum
approaches is presented. The Balian-Vénéroni variational principle is used to derive the …

There has been much recent interest in nuclear fission, due in part to a new appreciation of
its relevance to astrophysics, stability of superheavy elements, and fundamental theory of …

We describe the fissioning dynamics of Pu 240 from a configuration in the proximity of the
outer fission barrier to full scission and the formation of the fragments within an …

The nuclear mean-field model based on Skyrme forces or related density functionals has
found widespread application to the description of nuclear ground states, collective …

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 …

The basic concepts and recent developments in the time-dependent density-functional
theory (TDDFT) for describing nuclear dynamics at low energy are presented. The symmetry …

Multinucleon transfer processes in heavy-ion reactions at energies slightly above the
Coulomb barrier are investigated in a fully microscopic framework of the time-dependent …

Time-dependent Hartree-Fock (TDHF) theory has been a powerful tool in describing a
variety of complex nuclear dynamics microscopically without empirical parameters. In this …

The quasifission mechanism hinders fusion in heavy systems through breakup within
zeptoseconds into two fragments with partial mass equilibration. Its dependence on the …
