The reduced transition probabilities $B(E2; 0^+_{g.s.}\rightarrow2_1^+,2^+_2)$ in $^{70}$Zn and the full $B(E2; 0^+_{g.s.}\rightarrow2^+)$ strength up to S$_n$=7.79 MeV in $^{68}$Ni have been determined at the LISE/GANIL facility using the…
The nuclear electric dipole moment is a very sensitive probe of CP violation beyond the standard model, and for light nuclei, it can be evaluated accurately using few-body calculational methods. In this talk, we present the deuteron,…
Two-proton (2$p$) radioactivity represents a rare decay mode that has been experimentally observed only in a selected few nuclei. The exploration of 2$p$ emission is crucial for elucidating the structure, mass, and nucleon-nucleon…
