IceCube has observed 80 astrophysical neutrino candidates in the energy range 0.02 < E_\nu/PeV < 2. Deep inelastic scattering of these neutrinos with nucleons on Antarctic ice sheet probe center-of-mass energies $\sqrt{s} \sim$ 1 TeV. By…

Gamma decays were observed in $^{56}$Ca and $^{58}$Ca following quasi-free one-proton knockout reactions from $^{57,59}$Sc beams at $\approx 200$ MeV/nucleon. For $^{56}$Ca, a $\gamma$ ray transition was measured to be 1456(12) keV, while…

Throughout the nuclear chart, particle-hole correlations give rise to giant resonances and, together with the proton-neutron interaction, deformation and rotational bands. In order to shed light on many-body correlations in open-shell…

Isotopes in the region of the nuclear chart below $^{68}\mathrm{Ni}$ have been the subject of intense experimental and theoretical effort due to the potential onset of a new ``island of inversion'' when crossing the harmonic oscillator…

The time-dependent version of nuclear density functional theory, using functionals derived from Skyrme interactions, is able to approximately describe nuclear dynamics. We present time-dependent results of calculations of dipole resonances,…
