The production of about half of the heavy elements found in nature is assigned to a specific
astrophysical nucleosynthesis process: the rapid neutron-capture process (r process) …

The last decade has witnessed both quantitative and qualitative progress in shell-model
studies, which have resulted in remarkable gains in our understanding of the structure of the …

What is the origin of the oxygen we breathe, the hydrogen and oxygen (in form of water
H2O) in rivers and oceans, the carbon in all organic compounds, the silicon in electronic …

The r-process, or the rapid neutron-capture process, of stellar nucleosynthesis is called for to
explain the production of the stable (and some long-lived radioactive) neutron-rich nuclides …

Core-collapse theory brings together many facets of high-energy and nuclear astrophysics
and the numerical arts to present theorists with one of the most important, yet frustrating …

Neutrino–nuclear responses associated with astro-neutrinos, single beta decays and double
beta decays are crucial in studies of neutrino properties of interest for astro-particle physics …

The rapid neutron capture process (r process) is believed to be responsible for about half of
the production of the elements heavier than iron and contributes to abundances of some …

This article provides an overview of the basic principles of the physics of quantum halo
systems, defined as bound states of clusters of particles with a radius extending well into …

This contribution reviews the present status on the available constraints to the nuclear
equation of state (EoS) around saturation density from nuclear structure calculations on …

We review recent studies of the evolution of collective excitations in atomic nuclei far from
the valley of β-stability. Collective degrees of freedom govern essential aspects of nuclear …
