The problem of the divergences which arise in beyond mean-field calculations, when a zero-range effective interaction is employed, has not been much considered so far. Some of us have proposed, quite recently, a scheme to regularize a…
Properties of asymmetric nuclear matter are derived from various many-body approaches. This includes phenomenological ones like the Skyrme Hartree-Fock and relativistic mean field approaches, which are adjusted to fit properties of nuclei,…
We investigate the ternary fissions of $^{252}$Cf (spontaneous) and $^{236}$U (neutron-induced) into medium-mass fragments, as reported by the Dubna group, using the Hartree-Fock plus BCS method with the SLy6 Skyrme interaction. Compared to…
Background: Fission barriers of actinide nuclei have been mostly and for long been microscopi- cally calculated for even-even fissioning systems. Calculations in the case of odd nuclei have been performed merely within a so-called…
Nucleus-nucleus interaction potentials in heavy-ion fusion reactions are extracted from the microscopic time-dependent Hartree-Fock theory. When the center-of-mass energy is much higher than the Coulomb barrier energy, extracted potentials…

We present a large scale survey of life-times for spontaneous fission in the regime of super-heavy elements (SHE), i.e. nuclei with Z=104-122. This is done on the basis of the Skyrme-Hartree-Fock model. The axially symmetric fission path is…
The surface energy is one of the fundamental properties nuclei, appearing in the simplest form of the semi-empirical mass formula. The surface enery has an influence on e.g. the shape of a nucleus and its ability to deform. This in turn…
Relativistic effects are investigated in nuclear matter calculations employing renormalized low-momentum nucleon-nucleon ($NN$) interactions. It is demonstrated that the relativistic effects cure a problem of non-relativistic low-momentum…

A microscopic mean-field description of heavy ion collisions is performed in the framework of the time dependent Hartree-Fock theory using a Skyrme energy density functional. A good agreement with experiments is obtained on the position of…
The mean-field approximation based on effective interactions or density functionals plays a pivotal role in the description of finite quantum many-body systems that are too large to be treated by ab initio methods. Some examples are…
We find that for simple metal clusters a single-electron description of the ground state employing self-interaction correction (SIC) in the framework of local-density approximation strongly contaminates the high energy photoionization cross…
We present a systematics of fission barriers and fission lifetimes for the whole landscape of super-heavy elements (SHE), i.e. nuclei with Z>100. The fission lifetimes are also compared with the alpha-decay half-lives. The survey is based…
[Background] While the tensor interaction has been shown to significantly affect the nuclear structure of exotic nuclei, its influence on nuclear reactions has only recently been investigated. The primary reason for this neglect is the fact…
