Whether at phenomenological or microscopic levels, most theoretical approaches to charge transport through molecular junctions postulate or attempt to justify microscopically the existence of a dominant molecular orbital (MO). Within such…
We have completed measurements of two low-lying excited-state electric-dipole (E1) transition amplitudes in lead. Our measured reduced matrix elements of the $(6s^2 6p^2)^3P_1 \to (6s^2 6p7s)^3P_0$ transition at 368.3 nm and the 405.8 nm…

The excited states of unstable $^{20}$O were investigated via $\gamma$-ray spectroscopy following the $^{19}$O$(d,p)^{20}$O reaction at 8 $A$MeV. By exploiting the Doppler Shift Attenuation Method, the lifetime of the 2$^+_2$ and 3$^+_1$…
Based on the adiabatic picture for heavy-ion reactions, in which the neck formation in the one-body system is taken into account, we propose a two-step model for fusion cross sections at deep subbarrier energies. This model consists of the…
Purpose: We aim to investigate the role of a few neutron transfer channels on the dynamics of fusion reactions around the Coulomb barrier by judicially selecting 11 different $^{28,30}$Si-induced systems. These reactions are chosen in such…
The multinucleon transfer reactions near barrier energies has been investigated with a multistep model based on the dinuclear system (DNS) concept, in which the capture of two colliding nuclei, the transfer dynamics and the de-excitation…
The processes of electron excitation, capture, and ionization were investigated in proton collisions with atomic hydrogen in the initial $n=1$ and $n=2$ states at impact energies from 1 to 300 keV. The theoretical analysis is based on the…
We report the first direct measurement of differential transfer cross sections using a Recoil Mass Spectrometer. Absolute differential $1p$ and $2p$-stripping cross sections at $\theta_\mathrm{c.m.}=180^\circ$ have been determined for the…
A new asymptotic theory is proposed for the peripheral sub- and above-barrier transfer $A$($x$, $y$)$B$ reaction within the three-body ($A$, $a$ and $y$) model, where $ x$= $y$ + $a$, $B$= $A$ + $a$ and $ a$ is a transferred particle. In…
We propose a method to probe weakly bound s-wave neutron components near the neutron emission threshold in heavy nuclei using Coulomb-assisted neutron transfer reactions. Weakly bound s-wave neutrons have large asymptotic amplitudes, which…

No lines have been observed for transitions between the doublet and quartet levels of B I. Consequently, energy levels based on observation for the latter are obtained through extrapolation of wavelengths along the iso-electronic sequence…
A characteristic feature of collective and particle-hole excitations in neutron-rich nuclei is that many of them couple to unbound neutron in continuum single-particle orbits. The continuum random phase approximation (cRPA) is a powerful…
