In the last few years heavy ion experiments have addressed key questions regarding the
behavior of nuclear matter at high excitation and density. Simultaneous progress in theory …

The physical and theoretical foundations are presented for the mean-field theory of nuclear
structure and dynamics. Salient features of the many-body theory of stationary states are …

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 develop a unified nuclear potential for the description of large-scale nuclear collective
motion and find that it satisfactorily reproduces experimental data for heavy-ion elastic …

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 are at least two seemingly contradictory approaches to heavy ion collisions at
intermediate energy: the nuclear gas and the nuclear liquid pictures. The idea of the nuclear …

Quantum kinetic equations are derived using the Keldysh Green's function formalism to
describe non-equilibrium processes in nuclear matter and nucleus-nucleus collisions. A …

In order to facilitate the comparison of the time-dependent Hartree-Fock approximation with
other classical theories and to help guide our intuition in understanding the underlying …

Semiclassical approaches are proposed for studying the transition between one-and two-
body processes in intermediate-energy heavy-ion collisions. The Landau-Vlasov equation is …

In the high-energy (E lab≥ 200 MeV/nucl) heavy ion-collisions, the quantum uncertainty of
nucleon energies, given by the collision frequency, is of the order of (50–100) MeV. At …
