We derive asymptotic normality of kernel type deconvolution estimators of the density, the distribution function at a fixed point, and of the probability of an interval. We consider the so called super smooth case where the characteristic…
Cosmological determinations of the number of relativistic neutrino species, $N^{ }_{\rm eff}$, are becoming increasingly accurate, and further improvements are expected both from CMB and BBN data. Given this context, we update the…
The full relaxed-density potential between spherical nuclei is considered as a sum of the macroscopic and shell-correction contributions. The macroscopic part of the potential is related to a nucleus-nucleus potential obtained in the…
Properties of symmetric and asymmetric nuclear matter have been investigated in the relativistic Dirac-Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approach based on projection techniques using the Bonn A potential. The momentum, density, and isospin dependence…
There are many complementing strategies to estimate the extrapolation errors of a model which was calibrated in least-squares fits. We consider the Skyrme-Hartree-Fock model for nuclear structure and dynamics and exemplify the following…
Density functional theory is a preferred microscopic method for calculation of nuclear properties over the whole nuclear chart. Besides ground-state properties, which are calculated by Hartree-Fock theory, nuclear excitations can be…
The $^{12}{\rm C}(\alpha,\gamma)^{16}$O reaction, determining the survival of carbon in red giants, is of interest for nuclear reaction theory and nuclear astrophysics. A specific feature of the $^{16}$O nuclear structure is the presence of…

Angular distribution measurements of $^2$H($^7$Be,$^7$Be)$^2$H and $^2$H($^7$Be,$^8$B)$n$ reactions at $E_{c.m.}\sim$~4.5 MeV were performed to extract the astrophysical $S_{17}(0)$ factor using the asymptotic normalization coefficient…
A hitherto unexplored method for the experimental determination of the photon strength function up to the neutron separation energy was developed at the Radiation Source ELBE in Dresden. It was applied to various heavy nuclei,…
The temperature dependence of the symmetry energy for isotopic chains of even-even Ni, Sn, and Pb nuclei is investigated in the framework of the local density approximation (LDA). The Skyrme energy density functional with two Skyrme-class…
This paper introduces a family of recursively defined estimators of the parameters of a diffusion process. We use ideas of stochastic algorithms for the construction of the estimators. Asymptotic consistency of these estimators and…

Fixed-$t$ subtracted dispersion relations are presented for Compton scattering off the nucleon at energies $E_\gamma \leq 500$ MeV, as a formalism to extract the nucleon polarizabilities from the data with a minimum of model dependence. The…
The reliability of a previous $\alpha$-particle optical-model potential (OMP) on nuclei with mass number 45$\leq$$A$$\leq$209 was proved for emitted $\alpha$ particles as well, for proton--induced reactions on Zn isotopes [Phys. Rev. C {\bf…
The proton transfer ${\rm{^7Be}}$($d$,$n$)${\rm{^8B}}$ reaction at the energy of 4.5 MeV (c.m.) has been analysed within the modified DWBA. New estimates and their uncertainties are obtained for values of the asymptotic normalization…
