NUSTAR comprises the current nuclear structure, astrophysics and reactions programme at GSI and its proposed continuation and extension at FAIR. NUSTAR relies on the availability of exotic rare isotope beams produced by fragmentation reactions and fission of relativistic heavy ions. The fragment separator FRS and a versatile set of instruments, including gamma arrays, particle spectrometers...

The experimental nuclear physics group at LLNL is actively investigating exotic nuclei in a variety of regions of the chart of nuclides – from light nuclei to super heavy elements. The experimental nuclear physics effort at LLNL is centered on investigating nuclei at the extremes—in particular, extremes of spin, isospin, neutron richness, excitation energy, decay and detectability, mass, and...

Deformed, axially-symmetric nuclei in the trans-fermium region are known to exhibit high-K isomerism, because of the presence of high-$\Omega$ orbitals near both the proton and neutron Fermi surfaces. The properties of such isomers provide important information on the single-particle structures and on the role played by the pairing, and residual nucleon-nucleon interactions in the region. It...

Limits for spectroscopy of heavy elements were pushed down to 10 nb level with tagged prompt spectroscopy of 246Fm. The developments done within this collaboration to enable this experiment opened the way for prompt gamma-ray spectroscopy of Super Heavy Elements (SHE). In parallel we developed synthesis of a new isotopic MIVOC compound at IPHC Strasbourg that was successfully accelerated in...
