Shape coexistence in nuclei appears to be unique in the realm of finite many-body quantum
systems. It differs from the various geometrical arrangements that sometimes occur in a …

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 …

The development, present status and future perspectives of the Monte Carlo shell model are
discussed. The development and limitation of the conventional shell model calculations are …

One of the most interesting features of nuclei is the process by which specific configurations,
manifest as collective rotational bands at intermediate spin values, gradually lose their …

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 …

Following the pioneering discovery of alpha clustering and of molecular resonances, the
field of nuclear clustering is today one of those domains of heavy-ion nuclear physics that …

Cranked relativistic Hartree–Bogoliubov theory without and with approximate particle
number projection by means of the Lipkin–Nogami method is presented in detail as an …

Time-odd mean fields (nuclear magnetism) and their impact on physical observables in
rotating nuclei are studied in the framework of covariant density functional theory (CDFT). It …

The clustering of two nuclei in a nuclear system creates configurations denoted in literature
as nuclear molecular structures. A nuclear molecule or a dinuclear system (DNS) as named …

Superdeformed and highly deformed rotational bands in the A∼ 60 mass region are studied
within cranked relativistic mean field theory and the configuration-dependent cranked …
