Thermal neutron capture gamma-ray spectroscopy and prompt gamma-ray spectroscopy of fission fragments are powerful tools to obtain detailed nuclear structure information for nuclides close to stability and medium mass neutron-rich isotopes. The power of coupling a high-efficiency Ge detector array with an intense pencil-like neutron beam provided by the ILL reactor, has been recently...
In-beam gamma-ray spectroscopy experiments have been actively performed at Radioactive Isotope Beam Factory (RIBF) of the RIKEN Nishina Center owing to the high secondary beam intensities from the BigRIPS fragment separator [1]. These experiments mostly employed the DALI2 NaI array with the very high $\gamma$-ray detection efficiency [2], and the Zero Degree Spectrometer [1] and the SAMURAI...
The proton-rich doubly-magic self-conjugate nucleus $^{100}$Sn and neighboring nuclei are a site of unique nuclear phenomena and a test bed for modern nuclear models. The $^{100}$Sn nucleus is one of the fastest known Gamow-Teller $\beta$ emitters. Due to close proximity of the proton drip line, nuclei with Z>50 and N>50 near $^{100}$Sn form an island of $\alpha$ and proton emitters which...
Laser spectroscopy techniques provide nuclear-model independent access to nuclear electromagnetic moments, spins and charge radii. Advances in radioactive ion beam instrumentation and laser technologies have enabled the study of a wide range of elements and isotopes, pushing out far from the valley of stability towards the drip lines. In this contribution, I will present experimental progress...
