Abstract Forty years ago Burbidge, Burbidge, Fowler, and Hoyle combined what we would
now call fragmentary evidence from nuclear physics, stellar evolution and the abundances …

We present nuclear reaction network calculations to investigate the influence of nuclear
structure on the rp-process between Ge and Sn in various scenarios. Due to the lack of …

▪ Abstract The proton drip-line defines the limit at which nuclei become unbound to the
emission of a proton from their ground states. Low-Z nuclei lying beyond this limit only exist …

Mass excesses of short-lived A= 2 Z-1 nuclei Ge 63, As 65, Se 67, and Kr 71 have been
directly measured to be-46 921 (37),-46 937 (85),-46 580 (67), and-46 320 (141) keV …

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 …

One-proton and two-proton separation energies are calculated for proton-rich nuclei in the
region A= 41–75. The method is based on Skyrme Hartree-Fock calculations of Coulomb …

Now 50 years since the existence of the neutron star crust was proposed, we review the
current understanding of the nuclear physics of the outer layers of accreting neutron stars …

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 …

In the last two and a half decades ion storage rings have proven to be powerful tools for
precision experiments with unstable nuclides in the realm of nuclear structure and …

For mirror nuclei with masses A= 42–95, the effects of isospin-nonconserving nuclear forces
are studied with the nuclear shell model using the Coulomb displacement energy and triplet …
