A new paradigm for nuclear structure that includes blocking effects of tensor interactions is proposed. All of the recently discovered magic numbers (N=6, 14, 16, 32 and 34) in neutron-rich nuclei can be explained by the blocking effects. A large amount of binding energy is gained by high-momentum correlated pairs of nucleons produced by the tensor interaction. Such tensor correlations strongly depend on the configuration space available for exciting nucleons to 2p-2h states. When additional neutrons occupy a new orbital, the previously available configuration may be lost, resulting in a sudden loss of binding energy otherwise gained by the 2p-2h excitations. Such tensor blocking effects enlarge the energy gaps at all observed new magic numbers. Tensor blocking also explains consistently the observed peculiar configurations of neutron-rich nuclei at the borders of shells.

Pauli blocking is carefully investigated for the processes of $NN rightarrow N Delta$ and $Delta rightarrow N pi$ in heavy-ion collisions, aiming at a more precise prediction of the $pi^-/ pi^+$ ratio which is an important observable to constrain the high-density symmetry energy. We use the AMD+JAM approach, which combines the antisymmetrized molecular dynamics for the time evolution of nucleons and the JAM model to treat processes for $Delta$ resonances and pions. As is known in general transport-code simulations, it is difficult to treat Pauli blocking very precisely due to unphysical fluctuations and additional smearing of the phase-space distribution function, when Pauli blocking is treated in the standard method of JAM. We propose an improved method in AMD+JAM to use the Wigner function precisely calculated in AMD as the blocking probability. Different Pauli blocking methods are compared in heavy-ion collisions of neutron-rich nuclei, ${}^{132}mathrm{Sn}+{}^{124}mathrm{Sn}$, at 270 MeV/nucleon. With the more accurate method, we find that Pauli blocking is stronger, in particular for the neutron in the final state in $NN rightarrow N Delta$ and $ Delta to Npi$, compared to the case with a proton in the final state. Consequently, the $pi^-/pi^+$ ratio becomes higher when the Pauli blocking is improved, the effect of which is found to be comparable to the sensitivity to the high-density symmetry energy.
We calculate the ground, first intrinsic excited states and density distribution for neutron-rich thorium and uranium isotopes, within the framework of relativistic mean field(RMF) approach using axially deformed basis. The total nucleon densities ar e calculated, from which the cluster-structures inside the parent nuclei are determined. The possible modes of decay, like {alpha}-decay and b{eta} -decay are analyzed. We find the neutron-rich isotopes are stable against {alpha}-decay, however they are very much unstable against b{eta} -decay. The life time of these nuclei predicted to be tens of second against b{eta} -decay.

Both the incompressibility Ka of a finite nucleus of mass A and that ($K_{infty}$) of infinite nuclear matter are fundamentally important for many critical issues in nuclear physics and astrophysics. While some consensus has been reached about the $K _{infty}$, accurate theoretical predictions and experimental extractions of $K_{tau}$ characterizing the isospin dependence of Ka have been very difficult. We propose a differential approach to extract the Kt and Ki independently from the Ka data of any two nuclei in a given isotope chain. Applying this new method to the Ka data from isoscalar giant monopole resonances (ISGMR) in even-even Pb, Sn, Cd and Ca isotopes taken by U. Garg {it et al.} at the Research Center for Nuclear Physics (RCNP), Osaka University, Japan, we find that the $^{106}$Cd-$^{116}$Cd and $^{112}$Sn-$^{124}$Sn pairs having the largest differences in isospin asymmetries in their respective isotope chains measured so far provide consistently the most accurate up-to-date Kt value of $K_{tau}=-616pm 59$ MeV and $K_{tau}=-623pm 86$ MeV, respectively, largely independent of the remaining uncertainties of the surface and Coulomb terms in expanding the $K_{rm A}$, while the $K_{infty}$ values extracted from different isotopes chains are all well within the current uncertainty range of the community consensus for $K_{infty}$. Moreover, the size and origin of the Soft Sn Puzzle is studied with respect to the Stiff Pb Phenomenon. It is found that the latter is favored due to a much larger (by $sim 380$ MeV) Kt for Pb isotopes than for Sn isotopes, while the Ki from analyzing the Ka data of Sn isotopes is only about 5 MeV less than that from analyzing the Pb data.

Effect of the tensor force on $beta$?-decay is studied in the framework of the proton-neutron random-phase-approximation (RPA) with the Skyrme force. The investigation is performed for even-even semi-magic and magic nuclei, $^{34}$Si, $^{68}$, $^{78} $Ni and $^{132}$Sn. The tensor correlation induces strong impact on low-lying Gamow-Teller state. In particular, it improves the ?$beta$-decay half-lives. $Q$ and $ft$ values are also investigated and compared with experimental data.

The scope of the paper is to apply a state-of-the-art beyond mean-field model to the description of the Gamow-Teller response in atomic nuclei. This topic recently attracted considerable renewed interest, due, in particular, to the possibility of per forming experiments in unstable nuclei. We study the cases of $^{48}$Ca, $^{78}$Ni, $^{132}$Sn and $^{208}$Pb. Our model is based on a fully self-consistent Skyrme Hartree-Fock plus random phase approximation. The same Skyrme interaction is used to calculate the coupling between particles and vibrations, which leads to the mixing of the Gamow-Teller resonance with a set of doorway states and to its fragmentation. We compare our results with available experimental data. The microscopic coupling mechanism is also discussed in some detail.
