The pygmy dipole resonances and photon strength functions in stable and unstable Ni and Sn isotopes are calculated within the microscopic self-consistent version of the extended theory of finite fermi systems which includes phonon coupling…
Single-particle removal reactions are becoming an important tool for studying radioactive nuclei. The nuclei far from stability may reveal new regions of large deformation. We discuss the influence of the projectile deformation on the…

In this contribution we show that the theory of neutron transfer to the continuum reactions is an useful tool to study different characteristics of the single particle structure of nuclei. In one example we discuss properties of the single…
Background. One important ingredient for many applications of nuclear physics to astrophysics, nuclear energy, and stockpile stewardship are cross sections for reactions of neutrons with rare isotopes. Since direct measurements are often…
We apply the complex scaling method to the calculation of scattering phase shifts and extract the contributions of resonances in a phase shift and a cross section. The decomposition of the phase shift is shown to be useful to understand the…
We have calculated the strength distributions of the dipole response in spherical nuclei, ranging all over the periodic table. The calculations were performed within two microscopic models: the discretized quasiparticle random phase…
Background: The electric giant-dipole resonance (GDR) is the most established collective vibrational mode of excitation. A charge-exchange analog, however, has been poorly studied in comparison with the spin (magnetic) dipole resonance…
We theoretically investigate the elastic scattering of 50-MeV $\Sigma^-$ hyperons from $^{28}$Si and $^{208}$Pb in order to clarify the radial distribution of $\Sigma$-nucleus (optical) potentials. The angular distributions of differential…

The pygmy dipole resonance has been studied in the proton-magic nucleus 124Sn with the (a,a'g) coincidence method at E=136 MeV. The comparison with results of photon-scattering experiments reveals a splitting into two components with…
The semiclassical, dynamical description of diffraction dissociation of weakly bound nuclei is applied to analyze the decay-energy spectra of $^{15}$C that have been measured at 68 MeV/nucleon on a Pb target. The optical potentials that are…
In the present work the so-called Higher Tamm-Dancoff Apporximation method is presented for the generalized case of isovector and isoscalar residual interactions treated simultaneously. The role of different particle-hole excitations and of…
We point out that after presenting our results on high $n$-$p$ momentum sensitivity of the $(d,p)$ cross sections in [Phys. Rev. Lett. 117 162502 (2016)] the last paragraph of our Letter refers to a need of going beyond the leading order of…
The Coulomb dissociation is studied of the $^8L$i nuclei on Pb target at energies 40.3 and 69.5 MeV/nucleon, in the experiment NSCL #03038. The $^{6,7}$Li, $^{4,6}$He, and $^2$H fragments were identified. The resonance decay and the direct…
The Faddeev AGS equations are solved for coupled-channels $\bar{K}NN-\pi\Sigma{N}$ system with quantum numbers $I=1/2$ and $S=0$. Using separable potentials for $\bar{K}N-\pi\Sigma$ interaction, we have calculated the transition probability…
One-nucleon transfer reactions, in particular (d,p) reactions, have played a central role in nuclear structure studies for many decades. Present theoretical descriptions of the underlying reaction mechanisms are insufficient for addressing…
