The $\alpha$ particle preformation in the even-even nuclei from $^{108}$Te to $^{294}$118 and the penetration probability have been studied. The isotopes from Pb to U have been firstly investigated since the experimental data allow us to…

Recent theoretical work has not led to a consensus regarding the nature of the low-energy E1 strength in the 40,44,48Ca isotopes, for which high-resolution (gamma,gamma') data exist. Here we revisit this problem using the first-order…

The density of accessible levels at low spin in the (3-He,alpha gamma) reaction has been extracted for the 161,162-Dy and 171,172-Yb nuclei. The energy shift between the level densities of the even-odd and even-even isotopes is measured as…

We present the state-of-the art shell model calculations in a large model space (pf for protons, fpgd for neutrons), which allow to study simultaneously excitations across the Z=28 and N=50 shell gaps. We explore the region in the vicinity…

Generalized seniority provides a truncation scheme for the nuclear shell model, based on pairing correlations, which offers the possibility of dramatically reducing the dimensionality of the nuclear shell-model problem. Systematic…
