Recent developments (since the last review in J. of Physics G by I. Tanihata in 1996 [1]) at
RIB facilities opened possibilities of detailed studies of halo nuclei. New facilities have been …

Experimental studies on neutron halo nuclei are reviewed. The recent development of
radioactive nuclear beams enabled us to study detailed structure of nuclei far from the …

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 …

The third edition of a classic book, Basic Ideas and Concepts in Nuclear Physics sets out in
a clear and consistent manner the various elements of nuclear physics. Divided into four …

After giving a brief historical overview, we use simple few-body models to illustrate the basic
properties of halo states. Giant halos may exist in certain excited levels, although this is still …

The basic concepts and recent developments in the time-dependent density-functional
theory (TDDFT) for describing nuclear dynamics at low energy are presented. The symmetry …

An exclusive measurement has been made of the Coulomb dissociation of the two-neutron
halo nucleus Li 11 at 70 MeV/nucleon at RIKEN. Strong low-energy (soft) E 1 excitation is …

The fusion of 6 He with a 209 Bi target has been studied at energies near to and below the
Coulomb barrier. Despite the weak binding of the valence neutrons in 6 He, little evidence is …

Recent developments in precision mass spectrometry of radioactive isotopes (RI) and some
selected related physics subjects are reviewed. In the last decades, besides conventional …

We have measured the excitation energy spectrum of the 10Be+ n system in the Coulomb
dissociation of the one-neutron-halo nucleus 11Be on a Pb target at 72A MeV. We have …
