A survey of the experimental data on the charge and strong hadronic radii is given. A new, however preliminary value of the \Sigma^- charge radius allows to include also hyperons in the systematics. The presented data on the hadronic radii…
We discuss a cornucopia of potential astrophysical signatures and constraints on magnetically charged black holes of various masses. As recently highlighted, being potentially viable astrophysical candidates with immense electromagnetic…
This article describes experiments in space which measure charged cosmic ray particles in the range from $10\,\mathrm{GV}$ to $10^5\,\mathrm{GV}$ of magnetic rigidity $p/(Ze)$. In this energy range, cosmic rays are expected to originate…
The possible exotic nuclear properties in the neutron-rich Ca, Ni, Zr, and Sn isotopes are explored with the continuum Skyrme Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory formulated with the Green's function method. The available experimental two-neutron…
We report nuclear charge radii for the isotopes $^{104-134}$Sn, measured using two different collinear laser spectroscopy techniques at ISOLDE-CERN. These measurements clarify the arch-like trend in charge radii along the isotopic chain and…
Based on the relativistic Hartree-Fock formalism and one of the most advanced Lagrangian PKA1, we investigate the properties of the exotic nucleus 48Si. We found that 48Si may be an atypical nucleus characterized by i) the onset of doubly…
The strictly reversible, thermodynamically equilibrium nature of the free rotation of a body makes it possible to obtain a number of bounds on the rotational characteristics within individual rotational bands of nonspherical nuclei. As a…
The binding energy of an isotope is a sensitive indicator of the underlying shell structure as it reflects the net energy content of a nucleus. Since magic nuclei are significantly lighter, or more bound, compared to their neighbors, the…
The interaction of a kink and a monochromatic plane wave in one dimensional scalar field theories is studied. It is shown that in a large class of models the radiation pressure exerted on the kink is negative, i.e. the kink is {\sl pulled}…
The properties of $\isotope[12]{C}$, $\isotope[16]{O}$, and $\isotope[20]{Ne}$ nuclei in strong magnetic fields $B\simeq 10^{17}\,$G are studied in the context of strongly magnetized neutron stars and white dwarfs. The SKY3D code is…
It is shown that high-energy features of the cosmic ray spectrum, in particular the kink around 4 PeV and the corresponding change in spectral index, may be explained from interactions between highly energetic cosmic protons and relic Big…
The density dependence of the nuclear symmetry energy remains a central open problem in nuclear physics. Parity violating electron scattering experiments have provided largely model-independent determinations of the neutron skin thickness…
In order to find the selection rules that can be applied to the electromagnetic transitions when the chiral geometry is achieved, a model for a special configuration in triaxial odd-odd nuclei is constructed which exhibits degenerate chiral…
We use the nuclear density functional theory to determine nuclear electric quadrupole and magnetic dipole moments in all one-particle and one-hole neighbours of eight doubly magic nuclei. We align angular momenta along the intrinsic…
Control over quantum electrodynamics (QED) radiative corrections is critical for precise determination of neutrino oscillation probabilities from observed (anti)neutrino detection rates. It is particularly important to understand any…
For twenty years research into the anomalies in the HF spectra was going in a wrong direction by fighting the related Bohr-Weisskopf effect. As a way out, the model-independent way is proposed of estimating the nuclear radii from the…
Nuclear spins and precise values of the magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole moments of the ground-states of neutron-rich $^{76-78}$Cu isotopes were measured using the Collinear Resonance Ionization Spectroscopy (CRIS) experiment at…
We present moments and transition probabilities in the neighboring odd-mass nuclei of $^{208}$Pb calculated fully self-consistently from the s.p. properties of $^{208}$Pb with polarization corrections from its excitations, both given from…
Spectropolarimetry of core collapse supernovae has shown that they are asymmetric and often, but not universally, bi-polar. The Type IIb SN1993J and similar events showed large scatter in the Stokes parameter plane. Observational programs…
Some aspects of description of the Bohr-Weisskopf effect in hyperfine splitting of the H- and Li-like ions of 209Bi are considered by application of the surface and volume models of the nuclear currents. Extension of these models, used in…
