What is Radioactive beams, nuclear dynamics and astrophysics ERICE-SICILY: 16–24 September 2006 about?
This volume contains the lectures and contributions to the Erice School on Nuclear Physics 2006 and is devoted to physics with radioactive beams. Radioactive beams open up the prospect of studying the properties of nuclei far away from the valley of stability. This enables us to study the structure and reactions of nuclei which are important for the processes in stars (regular burning, novae and super-novae explosions) and even in the big bang: element formation in stars involve nuclei far away from the valley of stability. Heavier elements are formed by neutron capture in novae and super-novae explosions. The availability of beams with short-lived radioactive nuclei has paved the way for the exploration of the structure and dynamics of complex nuclei in regions of the nuclear chart which were not accessable in the past. In particular, one is now able to study the structure and the dynamics of complex nuclei in regions far away from stability on which we have only very little information. Exotic nuclei far from the valley of stability show new closed shells, and familiar ones are disappearing. Atomic nuclei display many astonishing regularities and simple excitation patterns. The r
