By using a phenomenologically successful Woods-Saxon potential, I study the shape and shell structure of (A) neutron drip line nuclei with 10 \leq N \leq 60, (B) neutron-rich nuclei related to the r- process with 40 \leq N \leq 90, and (C)…
Short-range correlation pairs (SRCs) -- core of nuclear structure, composed of highly off-shell nucleons -- are mostly studied via electron-nucleon scattering, leaving a gap in meson-based probes. We propose probing SRC off-shell nucleons…
