Remarkable advances have been made toward achieving the long-sought-after dream of describing properties of nuclei starting from realistic nucleon-nucleon interactions in the last two decades. The ab initio models were very successful in pushing the limits of their applicability toward nuclear systems with ever more nucleons and exotic neutron to proton ratios. Predictions of these models...

The atomic mass is a unique identifier of each nuclide, akin to a human fingerprint, and manifests the sum of all interactions among its constituent particles. Hence it provides invaluable insights into many disciplines from forensics to metrology. At TRIUMF Ion Trap for Atomic and Nuclear science (TITAN), Penning trap mass spectrometry is performed on radioactive nuclides, particularly...

Excited states in $^{62}$Ni were populated with a (p, p') reaction using the 14UD Pelletron accelerator at the Australian National University. The proton beam had an energy of 5 MeV and was incident upon a self-supporting $^{62}$Ni target of 1.2 mg/cm$^2$. Electric monopole transition strengths were measured from simultaneous detections of the internal conversion electrons and $\gamma$-rays...

The region below $^{68}$Ni has recently attracted great attention, from both experimental and theoretical studies, due to the observation of a sub-shell closure at N=40 and Z=28. The collectivity in the region is revealed in the even-even Fe and Cr isotopes by the low energy of the first 2$^+$ states and the enhanced $B(E2;2^+\rightarrow0^+)$ reduced transition probabilities, which peak at...
