The evolution of the N=28 shell closure is investigated far from stability. Using the latest results obtained from various experimental techniques, we discuss the main properties of the N=28 isotones, as well as those of the N=27 and N=29…
Nuclear structures of the atomic nuclei can be theoretically investigated by using nuclear shell model. Generally, a doubly closed-shell nucleus has been considered as inert core and the nucleons outside the core are taken into account in…
In a molecule subjected to no external fields, motion of nuclei is governed by a function V of nuclear coordinates. This function (potential energy) is a sum of two terms: Coulomb repulsion between nuclei and the electronic effective…

(abridged) We consider a secular orbital evolution of a supermassive binary black hole (SBBH) with unequal masses $M_p$ and $M_s < M_p$ in a central part of a non-spherical nuclear star cluster (NSC). When the mass of NSC inside the orbit…

Isospin symmetry of atomic nuclei is explicitly broken by the charge-dependent interactions, primarily the Coulomb force. Within the nuclear density functional theory, isospin is also broken spontaneously. We propose a projection scheme…
Evolution of quadrupole deformations in $sd$ and $pf$ shell nuclei with mass A= 18$\sim$56 is studied by using deformed Skyrme Hartree-Fock (HF) model with pairing correlations. We point out that the quadrupole deformations of the nuclei…
The self-consistent mean-field (SCMF) theory describes many properties of the ground state and excited states of the atomic nucleus, such as masses, radii, deformations and giant resonance energies. SCMF models are based on the independent…

A consistent theory is developed of the volume energy oscillations of spherical nuclei due to sharpness of the Fermi distribution boundary for quasiparticles. The lowest value of the oscillating part of the energy corresponds to a magic…
We study the quantum evolution in dimension three of a system composed by a test particle interacting with an environment made of $N$ harmonic oscillators. At time zero the test particle is described by a spherical wave, i.e. a highly…
