The short-range nuclear attraction is stronger in the isoscalar channel than in the isovector channel, as evidenced by the existence of the deuteron and not the dineutron. Nevertheless, apart from light N=Z nuclei, pairing is only seen in…

We perform ab initio calculations of three-point mass differences in the odd- and even-mass $^{39-49}$Ca isotopes to probe nuclear superfluidity via empirical neutron pairing gaps. We also quantify the sensitivity of those gaps to the…
[Background] Nuclear pairing is a well-established many-body correlation, particularly among like particles in a spin-singlet state. However, the strength of spin-triplet proton-neutron (pn) pairing in nuclei has remained a long-standing…
Central collisions induced by high energy radioactive beams can be used as a novel means to obtain crucial information about the high density ({\rm HD}) behaviour of nuclear symmetry energy. This information is critical for understanding…
We calculate a \Lambda\Lambda pairing gap in binary mixed matter of nucleons and \Lambda hyperons within the relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov model. Lambda hyperons to be paired up are immersed in background nucleons in a normal state. The…
