Superfluidity and superconductivity are remarkable manifestations of quantum coherence at a macroscopic scale. The existence of superfluidity has been experimentally confirmed in many condensed matter systems, in He-3 and He-4 liquids, in nuclear systems including nuclei and neutron stars, in both fermionic and bosonic cold atoms in traps, and it is also predicted to show up in dense quark...
Isomers close to the doubly magic nucleus 78Ni (Z=28, N=50) provide essential information on the shell evolution and shape coexistence far from stability. We have performed high-precision mass measurements of isomeric states close to 78Ni with the JYFLTRAP double Penning trap mass spectrometer [1] at the Ion Guide Isotope Separator On-Line (IGISOL) facility. The existence of a long-lived...
Exotic light-nuclei with low particle separation energy can exhibit a very extended matter distribution, the so-called nuclear halo [1, 2]. At collision energies around the Coulomb barrier, the presence of a halo enhances the coupling between the elastic and reaction channels, such as breakup, transfer, and fusion, as compared to stable well-bound nuclei. The Coulomb barrier scattering of...
The presence at low energy of pair of nuclear levels differing in orbital angular momentum by two units, which can be ascribed to single-particle states in the shell model, is common place in many odd-mass nuclei located near closed shells. Such single-particle states can be labelled with the radial quantum number n$_r$, the orbital angular momentum $l$ and the total angular momentum $j$, and...
A rigorous few-body scattering theory as proposed by Faddeev and extended by Yakubovsky and Alt, Grassberger and Sandhas is implemented in the momentum-space framework. Past applications include the nucleon-deuteron scattering, three-cluster nuclear reactions, and four-nucleon scattering. Recent and ongoing extensions of this framework will be presented.
First, we made a two-fold extension...
