We have developed indirect techniques to determine reaction rates at stellar energies for radioactive nuclei that are important in stellar evolution. The work to date has focused on measurements that are relevant for (p,gamma) reactions. The techniques that we have developed include determinations of Asymptotic Normalization Coefficients from transfer reactions to fix direct capture reaction...

The study of neutron-rich nuclei with unusually large neutron/proton ratio is challenging the conventional description of the structure of nuclei. Almost a decade of investigation has established that when moving from the region of β-stability to the drip line, the shell structure undergoes important modifications with the possible disappearance of the usual shell gaps and the emergence of new...
