Evolution of nuclear structure, shapes, and fission

Invited oral contribution

Modern nuclear structure theory is rapidly evolving towards regions of short-lived nuclei far from stability. The principal objective is to build a consistent microscopic theoretical framework that will provide a unified description of bulk properties, nuclear excitations and reactions. Stringent constraints on the microscopic approach to nuclear dynamics, effective nuclear...

Evolution of nuclear structure, shapes, and fission

Invited oral contribution

The review will concentrate on the spin, charge radii and static moments measured by laser spectroscopic techniques and the physics question these studies can address. In recent years most results have been obtained by high resolution laser spectroscopy using the collinear beams technique (for example by the COLLAPS collaboration at ISOLDE and a UK collaboration at the IGISOL...

32. Highly deformed states, clusterization and fission in the actinide region

Prof. Attila Krasznahorkay (Institute of Nuclear Research, Atomki)

Evolution of nuclear structure, shapes, and fission

Invited oral contribution

The predicted variety of exotic nuclear shapes, and heavy clusterizations in the actinide region still represent big challenges for the contemporary experimental investigations. Recently, the fission probability as a function of the excitation energy has been measured with high energy resolution using the (d,pf) reaction on different targets in order to study exotic nuclear...

44. Review of some recent theoretical developments devoted to the fission process

Dr Heloise Goutte (CEA)

12/10/2005, 11:30

Invited oral contribution

In the past few years, experimental studies have revealed many interesting features of the fission process, such as for instance i) a transition between single and double-humped mass distributions with a triple- humped structure for some Thorium isotopes, ii) a bimodality in the Total Kinetic Energy distributions of some fermium and transfermium isotopes. From a theoretical point of...
