We study binding energies in three isotopic chains ($^{100-130}$Sn, $^{152-181}$Yb, and $^{181-202}$Pb) using the extended pairing model with Nilsson single-particle energies. The exactly solvable nature of the model means that the pairing…

No-core shell model (NCSM) calculations using ab initio effective interactions are very successful in reproducing experimental nuclear spectra. The main theoretical approach is the use of effective operators, which include correlations left…
Background: Understanding the experimental $B(E2)$ values for Sn isotopes around $^{110}$Sn has been a significant challenge in nuclear structure studies for over a decade. Both experimental data and many, though not all, calculations…
The generalized seniority scheme has long been proposed as a means of dramatically reducing the dimensionality of nuclear shell model calculations, when strong pairing correlations are present. However, systematic benchmark calculations,…
We use equations for Faddeev amplitudes to solve the shell-model problem for four nucleons in the model space that includes up to 14 hbar Omega harmonic-oscillator excitations above the unperturbed ground state. Two- and three-body…
We study the extrapolation of nuclear shell structure to the region of superheavy nuclei in self-consistent mean-field models -- the Skyrme-Hartree-Fock approach and the relativistic mean-field model -- using a large number of…
We study the extension of our translationally invariant treatment of few-body nuclear systems to heavier nuclei. At the same time we also introduce state-dependent correlation operators. Our techniques are tailored to those nuclei that can…

The spectrum and wave functions of $^{44}$Ti are studied in oblique-basis calculations using spherical and SU(3) shell-model states. Although the results for $^{44}$Ti are not as good as those previously reported for $^{24}$Mg, due…
Pairing rotations and pairing vibrations are collective modes associated with a field, the pair field, which changes the number of particles by two. Consequently, they can be studied at profit with the help of two-particle transfer…
Nuclear many-body theory is used to study nuclear matter and finite nuclei at extreme isospin. In-medium interactions in asymmetric nuclear matter are obtained from (Dirac-) Brueckner theory. Neutron skin formation in Ni and Sn isotopes is…
