Background: Nuclear deformation provides a crucial characteristic of nuclear structure. Conventionally, the quadrupole deformation length of a nucleus, $\delta_{2}$, has often been determined based on a macroscopic model through a deformed…
The approach exposed in the recent paper (A. Shebeko, P. Papakonstantinou, E. Mavrommatis, Eur. Phys. J. A 27, 143 (2006)) has been applied in studying center-of-mass motion effects on the nucleon density and momentum distributions in…
The overlap of the nucleons in nuclei plays an important role in understanding the nuclear dependence of deep inelastic scattering data. It is shown that the nuclear modification of the higher twist scale can be essentially determined by…
The nuclear compressibility has a role in nuclear physics in several ways. Its relationship to the giant monopole is well known and has been subject of much theoretical work. Less well known is its affect on in nuclear structure, namely…

We explore the influence of the deformation on the nuclear matrix elements of the neutrinoless double beta decay (NME), concluding that the difference in deformation -or more generally in the amount of quadrupole correlations- between…
We study the charge and mass distributions within a nucleon and compute the associated squared radii based on a potential model approach. Different constituent quark configurations such as $\Delta$, $Y$, and quark-diquark are considered and…

Examples of the change of neutron shell-structure in both weakly-bound and resonant neutron one-particle levels in nuclei towards the neutron drip line are exhibited. It is shown that the shell-structure change due to the weak binding may…
