Masses of superheavy (SH) nuclei with $Z=98-128$, including odd and odd-odd nuclei, are systematically calculated within the microscopic-macroscopic model based on the deformed Woods-Saxon potential. Ground states are found by minimizing…
Proton emission, $\alpha$ decay, and cluster radioactivity play an important role in nuclear physics. We show that high-frequency alternative electric fields could deform Coulomb barriers that trap the charged particle, and raise the…
Evolution of quadrupole deformations in $sd$ and $pf$ shell nuclei with mass A= 18$\sim$56 is studied by using deformed Skyrme Hartree-Fock (HF) model with pairing correlations. We point out that the quadrupole deformations of the nuclei…

We present a possibility that the system with Z = 20, N = 40, 60Ca, has a large deformation, even though it has both proton and neutron magic numbers, symbolizing a spherical nucleus. This large deformation corresponds to the so-called…
Odd-odd nuclei around double shell closures are a direct source of information on the proton-neutron interaction between valence nucleons. We have performed shell-model calculations for doubly odd nuclei close to $^{208}$Pb, $^{132}$Sn and…

Measurements of the beta-decay properties of r-process nuclei below A=110 have been completed at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory, at Michigan State University. Beta-decay half-lives for Y-105, Zr-106,107 and Mo-111, along…

Atomic nuclei in general can have deformed shapes and nearly all these shapes are symmetric with respect to reflection. Only a few Actinide nuclei have stable reflection asymmetric pear shapes in their ground state and exhibit…
