Shape coexistence in nuclei appears to be unique in the realm of finite many-body quantum
systems. It differs from the various geometrical arrangements that sometimes occur in a …

The authors review the present status of self-consistent mean-field (SCMF) models for
describing nuclear structure and low-energy dynamics. These models are presented as …

Nuclear charge radii are sensitive probes of different aspects of the nucleon–nucleon
interaction and the bulk properties of nuclear matter, providing a stringent test and challenge …

Metamodeling for the nucleonic equation of state (EOS), inspired from a Taylor expansion
around the saturation density of symmetric nuclear matter, is proposed and parameterized in …

We carry out state-of-the-art optimization of a nuclear energy density of Skyrme type in the
framework of the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory. The particle-hole and particle-particle …

Self-consistent mean field models are a powerful tool in the investigation of nuclear structure
and low-energy dynamics. They are based on effective energy-density functionals, often …

Nuclear Superfluidity is a monograph devoted exclusively to pair correlations in nuclei. It
begins by exploring pair correlations in a variety of systems including superconductivity in …

We discuss the pairing gap, a measure for nuclear pairing correlations, in chains of
spherical, semi-magic nuclei in the framework of self-consistent nuclear mean-field models …

We perform the first direct mass measurements of neutron-rich calcium isotopes beyond
neutron number 34 at the RIKEN Radioactive Isotope Beam Factory by using the time-of …

This book brings together various aspects of the nuclear fission phenomenon discovered by
Hahn, Strassmann and Meitner almost 70 years ago. Beginning with an historical …
