Laser spectroscopy illuminates the shell closure
Tim E. Lellinger, Liss V. Rodriguez, Patrick Muller +29
Atomic nuclei are strongly correlated quantum many-body systems, and how their shell structure evolves with increasing neutron excess remains a central open question in nuclear phy…
Finite-range pairing in nuclear density functional theory
Sudhanva Lalit, Paul-Gerhard Reinhard, Kyle Godbey +1
Pairing correlations are ubiquitous in low-energy states of atomic nuclei. To incorporate them within nuclear density functional theory, often used for global computations of nucle…
The mass of Sn and Bayesian extrapolations to the proton drip line
Christian M. Ireland, Georg Bollen, Scott E. Campbell +23
The favorable energy configurations of nuclei at magic numbers of neutrons and protons are fundamental for understanding the evolution of nuclear structure. The ${Z=50}…
Puzzling Isotonic Odd-Even Staggering of Charge Radii in Deformed Rare Earth Nuclei
Endre Takacs, Hunter Staiger, Steven A. Blundell +16
The nuclear charge radius is a fundamental observable that encodes key aspects of nuclear structure, deformation, and pairing. Isotonic (constant neutron number) systematics in the…
Extreme Ultraviolet Spectroscopy of Highly Charged Lu and Yb Ions for Nuclear Charge Radius Determination
Hunter Staiger, Endre Takacs, Steven A. Blundell +16
We report a high-precision determination of the natural-abundance-averaged nuclear charge-radius difference between Yb and Lu using extreme ultraviolet (EUV) spectroscopy of highly…
Toroidal dipole mode in nuclei
Valentin Nesterenko, Petr Vishnevskiy, Anton Repko +2
A short review on the toroidal dipole mode (TDM) in nuclei is done. The appearance of TDM in nuclei is justified. The experimental manifestation of TDM in (e,e') reaction in 58Ni i…
