Odd-odd 136Cs nuclei have been produced in the 18O + 208Pb and 12C + 238U fusion-fission reactions and their gamma rays studied with the Euroball array. The high-spin level scheme has been built up to ~ 4.7 MeV excitation energy and spin I…
We present a study of Y(4260) properties using the initial-state radiation process e^+e^- -> gamma_{ISR} Y(4260). The Y(4260) resonance is reconstructed in the pi^+ pi^- J/\psi decay mode, using data collected by the Belle detector at the…
Angular correlation spectra of $e^+e^-$ pairs produced in the $^{7}$Li($p$,$\gamma$)$^{8}$Be nuclear reaction were studied at a proton beam energy of $E_p$~=~4.0~MeV, which corresponds to the excitation energy of the Giant Dipole Resonance…
Absolute cross sections for charge exchange, ionization, stripping and excitation in K^(+) - He collisions were measured in the ion energy range 0.7 - 10 keV. The experimental data and the schematic correlation diagrams are used to analyze…
The population and decay of two-nucleon resonances offer exciting new opportunities to explore dripline phenomena. The understanding of these systems requires a solid description of the three-body (core+N+N) continuum. The identification of…
We allow up to $4 \hbar\omega$ excitations in $^8Be$ relative to the basic configuration $(0s)^4(0p)^4$ in order to see if there are low-lying intruder states in $^8Be$. We use three interactions $-\chi Q \cdot Q, -\chi Q \cdot Q$ +…
We consider various possible identifications of the quantum numbers of the resonance D(2637) recently observed by DELPHI in the $D^*\pi\pi$ channel. We argue that in spite of a good agreement of the measured mass with the quark-model…

The primordial abundance of 7Li as predicted by Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) is more than a factor 2 larger than what has been observed in metal-poor halo stars. Herein, we analyze the possibility that this discrepancy originates from…
The cross section of the process $e^+e^-\to \pi^+D^0D^{*-}$ for center-of-mass energies from 4.05 to 4.60~GeV is measured precisely using data samples collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring. Two enhancements…
We report the observation of two narrow structures at 10610MeV/c^2 and 10650MeV/c^2 in the pi^{\pm}Upsilon(nS) (n=1,2,3) and pi^{\pm}h_b(mP) (m=1,2) mass spectra that are produced in association with a single charged pion in Upsilon(5S)…
Models of the r-process are sensitive to the production rate of 9Be because, in explosive environments rich in neutrons, alpha(alpha n,gamma)9Be is the primary mechanism for bridging the stability gaps at A=5 and A=8. The alpha(alpha…
From a Bayesian analysis of the electric dipole polarizability, the constrained energy of isovector giant dipole resonance, the peak energy of isocalar giant quadrupole resonance and the constrained energy of isocalar giant monopole…
The 40Ca(alpha,gamma)44Ti reaction is believed to be the main production channel for the radioactive nuclide 44Ti in core-collapse supernovae. Radiation from decaying 44Ti has been observed so far for two supernova remnants, and a precise…
Based on 106$\times10^6 \psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII facility, a partial wave analysis of $\psi(3686)\rightarrow p\bar{p}\pi^0$ is performed. The branching fraction of this channel has been determined…
