The last decades brought impressive progress in synthesizing and studying properties of
nuclides located very far from the beta stability line. Among the most fundamental properties …

A review of perturbative many-body descriptions of several nuclear systems is presented in
this report. Examples of systems considered are symmetric and asymmetric nuclear matter …

The third edition of a classic book, Basic Ideas and Concepts in Nuclear Physics sets out in
a clear and consistent manner the various elements of nuclear physics. Divided into four …

The GSI projectile fragment separator FRS has demonstrated with many pioneering
experiments the research potential of in-flight separators at relativistic energies. Although …

New experimental data obtained mainly at the GSI/FRS facility allow one to modify the
empirical parametrization of fragmentation cross sections. It will be shown that minor …

The shell structure of atomic nuclei is associated with 'magic numbers' and originates in the
nearly independent motion of neutrons and protons in a mean potential generated by all …

Nuclear physics began one century ago during the “miraculous decade”-tween 1895 and
1905 when the foundations of practically all modern physics were established. The period …

Mass and lifetime measurements lead to the discovery and understanding of basic
properties of matter. The isotopic nature of the chemical elements, nuclear binding, and the …

The limits of nuclear stability have not been reached for most elements. Only for the lightest
elements are the minimum and maximum number of neutrons necessary to form an isotope …

We study systematically the impact of the time-even tensor terms of the Skyrme energy
density functional, ie, terms bilinear in the spin-current tensor density, on deformation …
