Nuclear shape coexistence is the phenomenon in which distinct shapes occur within the
same nucleus and at a similar energy. In this work, we provide an overview of the …

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 …

Nuclei around N≈ Z≈ 40 are strongly deformed and exhibit coexistence of shapes. These
phenomena have challenged nuclear models. Here, we perform ab initio coupled-cluster …

Abstract The National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory (NSCL) at Michigan State
University (MSU) is a scientific user facility that offers beams of rare isotopes at a wide range …

It is argued that there exist natural shell-model spaces optimally adapted to the operation of
two variants of Elliott's SU3 symmetry that provide accurate predictions of quadrupole …

Excited states of 133 La have been investigated to search for the wobbling excitation mode
in the low-spin regime. Wobbling bands with n_ω=0 n ω= 0 and 1 are identified along with …

We studied the proton-rich T z=-1 nucleus Kr 70 through inelastic scattering at intermediate
energies in order to extract the reduced transition probability, B (E 2; 0+→ 2+). Comparison …

Conservation laws are deeply related to any symmetry present in a physical system,.
Analogously to electrons in atoms exhibiting spin symmetries, it is possible to consider …

We report on the first γ-ray spectroscopy of low-lying states in neutron-rich Kr 98, 100
isotopes obtained from Rb 99, 101 (p, 2 p) reactions at∼ 220 MeV/nucleon. A reduction of …

The lifetimes of the first excited 2+ states in the N= Z nuclei Zr 80, Y 78, and Sr 76 have been
measured using the γ-ray line shape method following population via nucleon-knockout …
