Particle-$gamma$ coincidences from the $^{89}$Y($p,p gamma$)$^{89}$Y and $^{89}$Y($d,p gamma$)$^{90}$Y reactions were utilized to obtain $gamma$-ray spectra as function of excitation energy. The Oslo method was used to extract the level density from the particle-$gamma$ coincidence matrices. The impact of the $N=50$ shell closure on the level densities is discussed within the framework of a combinatorial quasi-particle model.

The gamma-strength functions and level densities in the quasi-continuum of 147;149Sm isotopes have been extracted from particle-coincidences using the Oslo method. The nuclei of interest were populated via (p,d) reactions on pure 148;150Sm targets an d the reaction products were recorded by the Hyperion array. An upbend in the low-energy region of the gSF has been observed. The systematic analysis of the gSF for a range of Sm isotopes highlights the interplay between scissors mode and the upbend. Shell-model calculations show reasonable agreement with the experimental gSFs and confirm the correspondence between the upbend and scissors mode.
The nuclear level densities of $^{194-196}$Pt and $^{197,198}$Au below the neutron separation energy have been measured using transfer and scattering reactions. All the level density distributions follow the constant-temperature description. Each gro up of isotopes is characterized by the same temperature above the energy threshold corresponding to the breaking of the first Cooper pair. A constant entropy excess $Delta S=1.9$ and $1.1$ $k_B$ is observed in $^{195}$Pt and $^{198}$Au with respect to $^{196}$Pt and $^{197}$Au, respectively, giving information on the available single-particle level space for the last unpaired valence neutron. The breaking of nucleon Cooper pairs is revealed by sequential peaks in the microcanonical caloric curve.
A thick neutron skin emerges from the first determination of root mean square radii of the proton distributions for $^{17-22}$N from charge changing cross section measurements around 900$A$ MeV at GSI. Neutron halo effects are signaled for $^{22}$N f rom an increase in the proton and matter radii. The radii suggest an unconventional shell gap at $N$ = 14 arising from the attractive proton-neutron tensor interaction, in good agreement with shell model calculations. $Ab$ $initio$, in-medium similarity re-normalization group, calculations with a state-of-the-art chiral nucleon-nucleon and three-nucleon interaction reproduce well the data approaching the neutron drip-line isotopes but are challenged in explaining the complete isotopic trend of the radii.
New data for the $^mbox{nat}$V(p,x) reactions have been measured in the range 26-70 MeV, with production of the nuclides $^{47}$Sc, $^{43}$Sc, $^{44m}$Sc, $^{44g}$Sc, $^{46}$Sc, $^{48}$Sc, $^{42}$K, $^{43}$K, $^{48}$V, $^{48}$Cr, $^{49}$Cr, and $^{51 }$Cr. The focus is on the production of $^{47}$Sc, a $beta^-$-emitter suitable for innovative radiotheranostic applications in nuclear medicine. The measured cross sections for this radionuclide and its contaminants are compared with the theoretical excitation functions calculated with the TALYS code. In view of novel radiopharmaceutical applications, it is essential to accurately describe these cross-sections for the evaluation of yields, purities, and dose releases. Hence, we optimize the level-density parameters of the microscopic models in the TALYS code to obtain the best possible descriptions of the new data. We consider different irradiation conditions to estimate the production yields from the cross sections determined in this work.
Nuclei in the upper-$sd$ shell usually exhibit characteristics of spherical single particle excitations. In the recent years, employment of sophisticated techniques of gamma spectroscopy has led to observation of high spin states of several nuclei ne ar A$simeq$ 40. In a few of them multiparticle, multihole rotational states coexist with states of single particle nature. We have studied a few nuclei in this mass region experimentally, using various campaigns of the Indian National Gamma Array setup. We have compared and combined our empirical observations with the large-scale shell model results to interpret the structure of these nuclei. Indication of population of states of large deformation has been found in our data. This gives us an opportunity to investigate the interplay of single particle and collective degrees of freedom in this mass region.
