Invited talk
Over the last decade we have made a number of measurements using both fusion evaporation and deep inelastic reactions to study neutron rich nuclei to high spin. In addition, the ATLAS facility is in the middle of commissioning the CARIBU facility which will provide re-accelerated radioactive ion beams produced from a 252Cf 1Cu fission source. This talk will give some examples of our past...

Contribution talk
We study the development of deformation in low-lying states of neutron-rich Cr isotopes around N=40, where recent experiments suggest the development of deformation. Recently, we have developed a method for determining microscopically the five-dimensional quadrupole collective Hamiltonian, which is a standard tool to describe the quadrupole collective motions. This method consists of the...

The dominance of intruder configurations in the well-known “island of inversion” surrounding 32Mg has been attributed to a reduced N=20 sd-fp shell gap arising from the tensor monopole component of the effective nucleon-nucleon interaction. At higher masses, a similar mechanism results in a narrowing of the N=40 harmonic oscillator shell closure below Z=28. First evidence for a weakening of...
