The conventional Skyrme interaction is generalized by adding zero-range charge-symmetry-breaking and charge-independence-breaking terms, and the corresponding energy density functional is derived. It is shown that the extended model…

Spin-isospin transitions in nuclei away from the valley of stability are essential for the description of astrophysically relevant weak interaction processes. While they remain mainly beyond the reach of experiment, theoretical modeling…

Recent experimental data have revealed large mirror energy differences (MED) between high-spin states in the mirror nuclei 67Se and 67As, the heaviest pair where MED have been determined so far. The MED are generally attributed to the…
Symmetry energy coefficients of explicitly isospin asymmetric nuclear matter at variable densities (from .5$\rho_0$ up to 2 $\rho_0$) are studied as generalized screening functions. An extended stability condition for asymmetric nuclear…
The isospin-dependent component of the effective nucleon-nucleon interaction that causes the $\Delta T=1$ (p, p') and (p, n) reactions off nuclei is studied. It is shown that the corrections to the impulse approximation comes from the…
Isospin symmetry is a fundamental concept in nuclear physics. Even though isospin symmetry is partially broken, it holds approximately for most nuclear systems, which makes exceptions very interesting from the nuclear structure perspective.…
The one- plus two-body isospin nonconserving nuclear interactions are included in the prediction of ground state energies of fp shell nuclei using spectral distribution theory. This in turn is used to calculate the linear term in the…
