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...

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...

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...
