We present a review of recent applications of self-consistent relativistic mean-field models to
exotic nuclear structure. Based on concepts of non-renormalizable effective relativistic field …

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 …

We adjust a new improved relativistic mean-field effective interaction with explicit density
dependence of the meson-nucleon couplings. The effective interaction DD-ME2 is tested in …

We study a particular class of relativistic nuclear energy density functionals in which only
nucleon degrees of freedom are explicitly used in the construction of effective interaction …

Nowadays, the Gogny force is a referent in the theoretical description of nuclear structure
phenomena. Its phenomenological character manifests in a simple analytical form that …

Background: r-process nucleosynthesis models rely, by necessity, on nuclear structure
models for input. Particularly important are β-decay half-lives of neutron-rich nuclei. At …

This review paper concerns the research devoted to the study of the properties of dipole
excitations in nuclei. The main focus is on questions related to isospin effects in these types …

By exploiting Coulomb dissociation of high-energy radioactive beams of the neutron-rich
nuclei Sn 129-132 and Sb 133, 134, their dipole-strength distributions have been measured …

The dipole strength distribution above the one-neutron separation energy was measured in
the unstable Sn 130 and the double-magic Sn 132 isotopes. The results were deduced from …

The compression-mode giant resonances, namely the isoscalar giant monopole and
isoscalar giant dipole modes, are examples of collective nuclear motion. Their main interest …
