Spin-dependent interactions play essential roles in nuclear structure and reactions. One of the best known examples is the spin asymmetry found in nucleon elastic scattering, which is a direct manifestation of the spin-orbit interaction. Since the spin-orbit interaction is expected to work in the surface region, it is natural to expect that such interaction could be strongly modified by the...

The atomic nuclei have dual features, the single-particle shell nature and collective modes, which are competing with each other to express the actual nuclear structure. Here we demonstrate the precision analysis of this competition by focusing on the magnetic moment of an isomeric state of a neutron-rich nucleus 75Cu, where an intriguing shell evolution has been reported.

The nuclear driplines are defined by instability with respect to particle emission, and therefore the entire spectra of the systems beyond the driplines are continuous. The first emission threshold in the light even systems is often, due to pairing interaction, the threshold for two-neutron or two-proton emission, and therefore one has to deal with three-body continuum. Such continuum provides...

Halo nuclei exhibit an uncommon nuclear structure with a larger matter radius compared to stable nuclei [1]. This large size is qualitatively understood as due to the loose binding of one or two valence neutrons, which have then a high probability of presence at a large distance from the other nucleons. They thus form a sort of halo around the compact core of the nucleus. The best known...

A basic picture of nuclear excited states can be described by one-particle one-hole (1p1h) excitation. Experimental data of inelastic scatterings of nucleon-nucleus reaction are reasonably reproduced theoretically in this picture. However, it is known that higher-order configurations are important for a better understanding of the excited states. This may apply to the inelastic scattering....

The magic number 28 appears in the $pf$ shell because of the spin-orbit interaction. However, in some $N \approx 28$ neutron-rich nuclei, the neutron magic number 28 disappears. This leads to the quadrupole deformation of the ground state, the reduction of the excited energies and so on. In what region of the nuclear chart, does the magic number disappear? This is one of the interesting...

Heavy-ion charge exchange reactions at intermediate energies have drawn much attention because they have great advantages for determination of spin-isospin strength with better resolution and selectivity than that with nucleon probes such as (p,n) reaction. Such reactions could be used to extract values of GT strengh which is important for electron capture and beta-decay rates, and electron...

The future ARIEL facility, under development at TIRUMF, Vancouver, BC, will produce radioactive ion beams from photofission with unprecedented purities and intensities in the mass A=100 region. The first stage of ARIEL is the $4.24M CANadian Rare Isotope Facility with Electron Beam Ion Source (CANREB), which will go online in 2019.
Within an international collaboration of the University of...

Transfer reactions are powerful tools to study the structure of atomic nuclei. The recently commissioned OEDO beamline of CNS and RIKEN can provide beams with the necessary intensities at low energies (10-20 MeV/u) offering experimental access to regions of the nuclear chart which were hitherto not accessible for transfer studies.
To utilize OEDO for transfer reactions, a detector array...

Nuclear symmetry energy, temperature and density at the time of the intermediate mass fragment formation are determined using two novel methods, i.e., a self-consistent method and a chemical potential method.
(1) In a self-consistent manner, the yields of primary hot fragments are experimentally reconstructed for multifragmentation events in the reaction system ^64Zn + ^112Sn at 40...

The couplings between single-particle/hole degrees of freedom and collective and non-collective excitations are of primary importance in nuclear physics, as they are responsible for many phenomena observed in atomic nuclei, from the damping of giant resonances, to the quenching of spectroscopic factors and the anharmonicity of vibrational spectra [1].
