The authors review the present status of self-consistent mean-field (SCMF) models for
describing nuclear structure and low-energy dynamics. These models are presented as …

Progress in the theoretical description of superheavy nuclei (SHN) during about the last 25
years is reviewed with the main focus on their structure and properties. This quarter of …

A thorough analysis of all stages of heavy ion fusion reaction leading to the formation of a
heavy evaporation residue has been performed. The main goal of the analysis was to gain …

In recent years the body of experimental data on nuclei with masses A≃ 250 has increased
dramatically. Nuclei that had been out of reach for experimental studies have now become …

Mean field and beyond mean field methods implemented with the D1S force are used in
large scale calculations to study the structure properties of fifty five even–even actinides at …

Quasifission competes with fusion, and can suppress the cross sections for formation of
heavy elements by orders of magnitude. Its understanding is important both to map out …

Abstract The cranked relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov theory has been applied for a
systematic study of the nuclei around 254 No, the heaviest element for which detailed …

Within the concept of the dinuclear system (DNS), a dynamical model is proposed for
describing the formation of superheavy nuclei in complete fusion reactions by incorporating …

New physics opportunities are opening up by the Advanced Gamma Tracking Array, AGATA,
as it evolves to the full 4 π π instrument. AGATA is a high-resolution γ γ-ray spectrometer …

Spontaneous fission properties of transuranium isotopes are reviewed. Specific emphasis
was laid on brief historical overviews of theoretical descriptions and experimental …
