It is a well-established fact that intranuclear-cascade models generally fail to consistently reproduce the cross sections for one-proton and one-neutron removal from stable nuclei by a high-energy proton beam. We use simple shell-model…

The variation of total nuclear level densities (NLDs) and level density parameters with proton number $(Z)$ are studied around the $\beta$-stable isotope, $Z_{0}$, for a given mass number. We perform our analysis for a mass range $A=40$ to…

Neutron-capture reactions on very neutron-rich nuclei are essential for heavy-element nucleosynthesis through the rapid neutron-capture process, now shown to take place in neutron-star merger events. For these exotic nuclei, radiative…
