Atomic nuclei are quantum many-body systems of protons and neutrons held together by
strong nuclear forces. Under the proper conditions, nuclei can break into two (sometimes …

The rapid neutron capture or 'r process' of nucleosynthesis is believed to be responsible for
the production of approximately half the natural abundance of heavy elements found on the …

A recent analysis of experimental data [J. Wilson, Nature (London) 590, 566 (2021) NATUAS
0028-0836 10.1038/s41586-021-03304-w] found that the angular momenta of nuclear …

We present the first fully unrestricted microscopic calculations of the primary fission fragment
intrinsic spins and of the fission fragments' relative orbital angular momentum for U 236*, Pu …

The dynamics of low-energy-induced fission is explored using a consistent microscopic
framework that combines the time-dependent generator coordinate method (TDGCM) and …

The intrinsic spins and their correlations are the least understood characteristics of fission
fragments from both theoretical and experimental points of view. In many nuclear reactions …

We discuss how the measurement of photon angular correlations can reveal information
about the orientation of the fission fragment angular momenta. Photons from identified …

Monte-Carlo simulations to calculate the number of prompt particles emitted during fission
were performed using the Fifrelin code and compared to recent experimental data. We show …

We investigate the angular momentum removal from fission fragments (FFs) through neutron
and γ-ray emission, finding that about half the neutrons are emitted with angular momenta≥ …

We describe the new version 4.0 of the code hfbtho that solves the nuclear Hartree-Fock-
Bogoliubov problem by using the deformed harmonic oscillator basis in cylindrical …
