This review paper concerns the research devoted to the study of the properties of dipole
excitations in nuclei. The main focus is on questions related to isospin effects in these types …

This review aims at giving a critical description of the theoretical researches conducted on
the low-lying dipole states traditionally denoted as Pygmy Dipole Resonances (PDR). A brief …

The Advanced GAmma Tracking Array (AGATA) is a European project to develop and
operate the next generation γ-ray spectrometer. AGATA is based on the technique of γ-ray …

In-flight separators have played a significant role in the physics of exotic nuclei. In the last
decade, in particular, this field has expanded rapidly with the advent of the new-generation …

Abstract The Advanced GAmma Tracking Array (AGATA) has been installed at the GANIL
facility, Caen-France. This set-up exploits the stable and radioactive heavy-ions beams …

An overview of relevant results on the study of 1− states focusing on their excitation with
nuclear probes is given. Results obtained for the 90 Zr, 124 Sn, and 208 Pb nuclei using the …

Background: Multinucleon transfer reactions (MNT) are a competitive tool to populate exotic
neutron-rich nuclei in a wide region of nuclei, where other production methods have severe …

The γ decay from the high-lying states of 124 Sn was measured using the inelastic scattering
of 17 O at 340 MeV. The emitted γ rays were detected with high resolution with the AGATA …

Multinucleon transfer reactions, characterized by the exchange of many nucleons at
energies in the vicinity of the Coulomb barrier, have been extensively used in the last …

Abstract The Advanced GAmma Tracking Array (AGATA), the new generation high-
resolution γ-ray spectrometer, has seen the realization of the first phases of its construction …
