The shell model within the $2s1d0g_{7/2}0h_{11/2}$ shell is applied to calculate nuclear structure properties of the even Z=52 - 62, N=82 isotones. The results are compared with experimental data and with the results of a quasiparticle…
Nuclear shape transition and oblate-prolate coexistence in $N=Z$ nuclei are investigated within the configuration space ($2p_{3/2}$, $1f_{5/2}$, $2p_{1/2}$, and $1g_{9/2}$). We perform shell model calculations for $^{60}$Zn, $^{64}$Ge, and…

In the present work we calculate the allowed $\beta^-$-decay half-lives of nuclei with $Z = 20 -30$ and N $\leq$ 50 systematically under the framework of the nuclear shell model. A recent study shows that some nuclei in this region belong…
The region near Z=28, N=40 is a subject of great interest for nuclear structure studies due to spectroscopic signatures in $^{68}$Ni suggesting a subshell closure at N=40. Trends in nuclear masses and their derivatives provide a…
The effective interaction GXPF1 for shell-model calculations in the full $pf$ shell is tested in detail from various viewpoints such as binding energies, electro-magnetic moments and transitions, and excitation spectra. The semi-magic…

Experimental energy spectrum and B(E2) values in 68Ni and 90Zr indicate a double-magic character in these neutron-rich nuclei with N or Z=40. The data nevertheless do not show any pronounced irregularity in two-nucleon separation energy. To…

Nuclear mass measurements of isotopes are key to improving our understanding of nuclear structure across the chart of nuclides, in particular for the determination of the appearance or disappearance of nuclear shell closures. We present…
