Direct reactions in inverse kinematics at low energies are essential tools to study the shell structure of unstable nuclei. Transfer reactions allow to determine the distribution of the spectroscopic strength, necessary to investigate the shell evolution across the nuclear landscape. Proton-induced elastic and inelastic scattering give access to unique information about collectivity and matter...

The region surrounding the neutron number N = 60 for the Sr and Zr isotopic chains is an interesting example of shape evolution. Starting from the N = 50 closed spherical shell, and removing a few neutrons, the Sr and Zr isotopes become well deformed. On the neutron-rich side of these isotopic chains, N = 56 is observed to become an effective sub-shell closure with $^{96}$Zr exhibiting the...

The neutron-rich A=100 mass region has recently risen up a high interest of the nuclear structure community. When going from N=58 to N=60, a rapid shape transition occurs from spherical to well deformed ground state shape, similar to what is observed in the rare earths region. This region firstly accessible by fission [1] has been later studied by mass and laser spectroscopy (e.g. [2]), which...

In this contribution we discuss the potentials of a new technique of optical orientation of radioactive ions trapped in an open Paul trap, permitting to reach a very high degree of polarization, for beta decay experiments.
More precisely, laser polarization of the alkali-earth ions 23Mg+ and 39Ca+ in a Paul trap and detection of the emitted electron and recoil ion shall enable the...
