Exotic nuclei explored at in-flight separators

T Nakamura, H Sakurai, H Watanabe - Progress in Particle and Nuclear …, 2017 - Elsevier
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 …

The Proxy-SU (3) symmetry in atomic nuclei

D Bonatsos, A Martinou, SK Peroulis, TJ Mertzimekis… - Symmetry, 2023 - mdpi.com
The microscopic origins and the current predictions of the proxy-SU (3) symmetry model of
atomic nuclei were reviewed. Beginning with experimental evidence for the special roles …

Analytic predictions for nuclear shapes, prolate dominance, and the prolate-oblate shape transition in the proxy-SU (3) model

D Bonatsos, IE Assimakis, N Minkov, A Martinou… - Physical Review C, 2017 - APS
Using a new approximate analytic parameter-free proxy-SU (3) scheme, we make simple
predictions of shape observables for deformed nuclei, namely γ and β deformation …

The discovery of isotopes

M Thoennessen - Switzerland: Springer Int. Publ, 2016 - Springer
The idea to document the discovery of all isotopes was not an ad hoc decision, but it
developed over several years. In 2003, I was asked to write a review article about the drip …

Isomeric states observed in heavy neutron-rich nuclei populated in the fragmentation of a Pb beam

SJ Steer, Z Podolyak, S Pietri, M Gorska, H Grawe… - Physical Review C …, 2011 - APS
Heavy neutron-rich nuclei were populated via the fragmentation of a E/A= 1 GeV 208 82 Pb
beam. Secondary fragments were separated and identified and subsequently implanted in a …

Microscopic analysis of prolate-oblate shape phase transition and shape coexistence in the Er-Pt region

XQ Yang, LJ Wang, J Xiang, XY Wu, ZP Li - Physical Review C, 2021 - APS
The shape transition and possible occurrence of low-energy shape coexistence and rigid
triaxial deformation are analyzed in the six even-even Er, Yb, Hf, W, Os, and Pt isotopic …

Discovery of highly excited long-lived isomers in neutron-rich hafnium and tantalum isotopes through direct mass measurements

MW Reed, IJ Cullen, PM Walker, YA Litvinov, K Blaum… - Physical review …, 2010 - APS
A study of cooled Au 197 projectile-fragmentation products has been performed with a
