This work establishes a deep connection between two seemingly distant branches of nuclear physics: nuclear structure and relativistic heavy-ion collisions. At the heart of this connection is the recent discovery made at particle colliders…
Recent high-energy heavy ion collision experiments have revealed that some atomic nuclei exhibit unusual softness and significant shape fluctuations. In this work, we use the fully self-consistent mean-field theory to identify all even-even…
We investigate the dynamical properties of asymmetric nuclear matter at low density. The occurrence of new instabilities, that lead the system to a dynamical fragment formation, is illustrated, discussing in particular the charge symmetry…
A semiclassical analysis is made of the origin of an undulating pattern in the smoothed level density for a reflection-asymmetric superdeformed oscillator potential. It is suggested that, when the octupole-type deformation increases, an…
The transition from order to chaos in atomic nuclei has been studied analytically and numerically using a quadrupole--quadrupole residual interaction. This interaction leads to chaotic behaviour, but the critical energy $E_C\simeq 12.6$…
The study of exotic nuclei---nuclei with the ratio of neutron number $N$ to proton number $Z$ deviating much from that of those found in nature---is at the forefront of nuclear physics research because it can not only reveal novel nuclear…
We investigate the decay process from a time dependent potential well in the semiclassical regime. The classical dynamics is chaotic and the decay rate shows an irregular behavior as a function of the system parameters. By studying the…
The dynamics of nuclear collective motion is investigated in the case of reflection-asymmetric shapes. The model is based on a new parameterization of the octupole and quadrupole degrees of freedom, valid for nuclei close to the axial…
The ground states of some nuclei are described by densities and mean fields that are spherical, while others are deformed. The existence of non-spherical shape in nuclei represents a spontaneous symmetry breaking.
We study the interplay between regular and chaotic dynamics at the critical point of a generic first-order quantum phase transition in an interacting boson model of nuclei. A classical analysis reveals a distinct behavior of the coexisting…
A set of moderately deformed $s-d$ shell nuclei is employed for testing the reliability of the nuclear ground state wave functions which are obtained in the context of a BCS approach and offer a simultaneous consideration of deformation and…
Nematic shells are colloidal particles coated with nematic liquid crystal molecules which may freely glide and rotate on the colloid's surface while keeping their long axis on the local tangent plane. We describe the nematic order on a…
We propose a new method of the $\beta$-$\gamma$ constraint for quadrupole deformation in antisymmetrized molecular dynamics (AMD) to describe various cluster and shell-model structures in the ground and excited states of light nuclei. We…
We discuss the features of instabilities in asymmetric nuclear matter, in particular the relation between the nature of fluctuations, the types of instabilities and the properties of the interaction. We show a chemical instability appears…
Relationship between quantum shell structure and classical periodic orbits is briefly reviewed on the basis of semi-classical trace formula. Using the spheroidal cavity model, it is shown that three-dimensional periodic orbits, which are…
Quantum chaos is usually characterized through its statistical implications on the energy spectrum of a given system. In this work we propose a decoherent mechanism for sensing quantum chaos. The chaotic nature of a many-body quantum system…
The last decade has witnessed both quantitative and qualitative progresses in Shell Model studies, which have resulted in remarkable gains in our understanding of the structure of the nucleus. Indeed, it is now possible to diagonalize…
We present the results of a phenomenological study of unpolarized nuclear structure functions for a wide kinematical region of x and Q^2. As a basis of our phenomenology we develop a model which takes into account a number of different…
Various applications of quantum algebraic techniques in nuclear structure physics, such as the su$_q$(2) rotator model and its extensions, the use of deformed bosons in the description of pairing correlations, and the construction of…
The Projected Shell Model with zero-, two- and four-quasiparticle configurations is used to investigate the level statistics, i.e. chaoticity, of high spin spectroscopy. The model can describe many high spin phenomena and with the present…
