Investigation into the properties and structure of unstable nuclei far from stability is a key
avenue of research in modern nuclear physics. These efforts are motivated by the continual …

High-resolution laser spectroscopy is an established powerful tool in the study of nuclear
shape, size and multipole moments. Measurements of the hyperfine structures and isotope …

Background: Recent advances in nuclear structure theory have led to the availability of
several complementary ab initio many-body techniques applicable to light and medium …

Over three and a half decades of collinear laser spectroscopy and the COLLAPS setup have
played a major role in the ISOLDE physics programme. Based on a general experimental …

Nuclear structure theory has recently gone through a major renewal with the development of
ab initio techniques that can be applied to a large number of atomic nuclei, well-beyond the …

The first γ-ray spectroscopy of Ar 52, with the neutron number N= 34, was measured using
the K 53 (p, 2 p) one-proton removal reaction at∼ 210 MeV/u at the RIBF facility. The 2 1+ …

Within the nuclear DFT approach, we determined the magnetic dipole and electric
quadrupole moments for paired nuclear states corresponding to the proton (neutron) …

We report on the measurement of optical isotope shifts for 38, 39, 42, 44, 46–51 K relative to
47 K from which changes in the nuclear mean square charge radii across the N= 28 shell …

The low-lying structure of the neutron-rich nucleus Ar 50 has been investigated at the
Radioactive Isotope Beam Factory using in-beam γ-ray spectroscopy with Be 9 (Ca 54, Ar …

We report on the first γ-ray spectroscopy of 51, 53 K produced via the 52, 54 Ca (p, 2p)
reactions at∼ 250 MeV/nucleon. Unambiguous final-state angular-momentum assignments …
