We analyze recently-measured total reaction cross sections for 24-38Mg isotopes incident on 12C targets at 240 MeV/nucleon by using the folding model and antisymmetrized molecular dynamics(AMD). The folding model well reproduces the measured reaction cross sections, when the projectile densities are evaluated by the deformed Woods-Saxon (def-WS) model with AMD deformation. Matter radii of 24-38Mg are then deduced from the measured reaction cross sections by fine-tuning the parameters of the def-WS model. The deduced matter radii are largely enhanced by nuclear deformation. Fully-microscopic AMD calculations with no free parameter well reproduce the deduced matter radii for 24-36Mg, but still considerably underestimate them for 37,38Mg. The large matter radii suggest that 37,38Mg are candidates for deformed halo nucleus. AMD also reproduces other existing measured ground-state properties (spin-parity, total binding energy, and one-neutron separation energy) of Mg isotopes. Neutron-number (N) dependence of deformation parameter is predicted by AMD. Large deformation is seen from 31Mg with N = 19 to a drip-line nucleus 40Mg with N = 28, indicating that both the N = 20 and 28 magicities disappear. N dependence of neutron skin thickness is also predicted by AMD.

The ground-state properties of neutron-rich 106Nb and its beta decay into 106Mo have been studied using the CARIBU radioactive-ion-beam facility at Argonne National Laboratory. Niobium-106 ions were extracted from a 252Cf fission source and mass sepa rated before being delivered as low-energy beams to the Canadian Penning Trap, as well as the X-Array and SATURN beta-decay-spectroscopy station. The measured 106Nb ground-state mass excess of -66202.0(13) keV is consistent with a recent measurement but has three times better precision; this work also rules out the existence of a second long-lived, beta-decaying state in 106Nb above 5 keV in excitation energy. The decay half-life of 106Nb was measured to be 1.097(21) s, which is 8% longer than the adopted value. The level scheme of the decay progeny, 106Mo, has been expanded up to approximately 4 MeV. The distribution of decay strength and considerable population of excited states in 106Mo of J >= 3 emphasises the need to revise the adopted Jpi = 1- ground-state spin-parity assignment of 106Nb; it is more likely to be J => 3.
Microscopic investigations for the observed properties of the recently reported five unstable new isotopes are carried out. The ground state properties are calculated in the relativistic mean field (RMF) framework and the results reproduce the experi ment well as expected. The {alpha} - decay lifetimes are calculated in the double folding model using WKB approximation which requires the relevant Q values of {alpha} - decay and the {alpha} - daughter potential. The latter is obtained by folding the effective M3Y nucleon nucleon potential with the RMF nucleon density distributions for the daughter nucleus and that of the {alpha} particle which is assumed to be of Gaussian shape. the corresponding decay half - lives obtained by using available phenomenological expression are also presented, discussed and compared. It is observed that the Q values calculated in the RMF framework , though reasonably agree with the experiment, are not accurate enough for the reliable WKB calculation of decay half- lives. We therefore, advocate that the use of accurate (e.g. experimental) Q values is crucial for the reliable description of the experimental {alpha} - decay half-lives.
We compute the binding energy of neutron-rich oxygen isotopes and employ the coupled-cluster method and chiral nucleon-nucleon interactions at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order with two different cutoffs. We obtain rather well-converged results i n model spaces consisting of up to 21 oscillator shells. For interactions with a momentum cutoff of 500 MeV, we find that 28O is stable with respect to 24O, while calculations with a momentum cutoff of 600 MeV result in a slightly unbound 28O. The theoretical error estimates due to the omission of the three-nucleon forces and the truncation of excitations beyond three-particle-three-hole clusters indicate that the stability of 28O cannot be ruled out from ab-initio calculations, and that three-nucleon forces and continuum effects play the dominant role in deciding this question.
The ground-state bands (GSBs) in the even-even hafnium isotopes $^{170-184}$Hf are investigated by using the cranked shell model (CSM) with pairing correlations treated by the particle-number conserving (PNC) method. The experimental kinematic moment s of inertia are reproduced very well by theoretical calculations. The second upbending of the GSB at high frequency $hbaromegaapprox0.5$ MeV observed (predicted) in $^{172}$Hf ($^{170,174-178}$Hf) attributes to the sudden alignments of the proton high-$j$ orbitals $pi1i_{13/2}$ $(1/2^{+}[660])$, $pi1h_{9/2}$ $(1/2^{-}[541])$ and orbital $pi1h_{11/2}$ $(7/2^{-}[523])$. The first upbendings of GSBs at low frequency $hbaromega=0.2-0.3$ MeV in $^{170-178}$Hf, which locate below the deformed neutron shell $N=108$, attribute to the alignment of the neutron orbital $ u1i_{13/2}$. For the heavier even-even isotopes $^{180-184}$Hf, compared to the lighter isotopes, the first band-crossing is delayed to the high frequency due to the existence of the deformed shells $N=108,116$. The upbendings of GSBs in $^{180-184}$Hf are predicted to occur at $hbaromegaapprox0.5$MeV, which come from the sharp raise of the simultaneous alignments of both proton $pi1i_{13/2}$, $pi1h_{9/2}$ and neutron $ u2g_{9/2}$ orbitals. The pairing correlation plays a very important role in the rotational properties of GSBs in even-even isotopes $^{180-184}$Hf. Its effects on upbendings and band-crossing frequencies are investigated.
Starting from the quasiparticle random phase approximation based on the Skyrme interaction SLy5, we study the effects of phonon-phonon coupling~(PPC) on the low-energy electric dipole response in $^{40-58}$Ca. Using the same set of parameters we desc ribe available experimental data for $^{40,44,48}$Ca and give prediction for $^{50-58}$Ca. The inclusion of the PPC results in the formation of low-energy $1^-$ states. There is an impact of the PPC effect on low-energy $E1$~strength of $^{40,44,48}$Ca. The PPC effect on the electric dipole polarizability is discussed. We predict a strong increase of the summed $E1$~strength below 10MeV, with increasing neutron number from $^{48}$Ca till $^{58}$Ca.
