We study the correlation between the thickness of the neutron skin in finite nuclei and the nuclear symmetry energy for isotopic chains of even-even Ni, Sn, and Pb nuclei in the framework of the deformed self-consistent mean-field Skyrme…
We propose two new sources of a substantial tensor polarization of sea partons in the deuteron: the diffractive nuclear shadowing which depends on the alignment of nucleons in the polarized deuteron and the nuclear excess of pions in the…

The role of pairing correlations for nucleon pairs with isospin $T=1$ and $T=0$ is investigated for nuclei in the mass region $12 \leq A \leq 42$. For that purpose the two-nucleon densities resulting from nuclear shell-model calculations in…
When skyrmions representing nucleons are put on crystal lattice and compressed to simulate high density, there is a transition above the normal nuclear matter density $n_0$ from a matter consisting of skyrmions with integer baryon charge to…

It has been shown in the past that in a shell model calculation, restricted to 1Hbar*Omega 1p-1h configurations, the energy splitting between the lowest J=0-, T=0 and J=0-, T=1 states in 16O is mainly due to the tensor component of the…

We consider two competing sets of nuclear magic numbers, namely the harmonic oscillator (HO) set (2, 8, 20, 40, 70, 112, 168, 240,...) and the set corresponding to the proxy-SU(3) scheme, possessing shells 0-2, 2-4, 6-12, 14-26, 28-48,…

The accurate measurement of neutron skin thickness of $^{208}$Pb by the PREX Collaboration suggests a large value of the nuclear symmetry energy slope parameter, $L$, whereas the smaller $L$ is preferred to account for the small…
We investigate the possibility that some nuclei show density distributions with a depletion in the center, a semi-bubble structure, by using a Hartree-Fock plus Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer approach. We separately study the proton, neutron and…
The compressibility of nuclear matter has received significant attention in the last decade and a variety of approaches have been employed to extract this fundamental property of matter. Recently, significant differences have emerged…
The density dependence of nuclear symmetry energy remains poorly constrained. Starting from precise empirical values of the nuclear volume and surface symmetry energy coefficients and the nuclear saturation density, we show how in the ambit…

The formation of neutrino spectra in a supernova depends crucially on strength and inelasticity of weak interactions in hot nuclear matter. Neutrino interactions with nonrelativistic nucleons are mainly governed by the dynamical structure…
