Research

The journey of nuclear physics over the past century has unraveled mysteries of celestial formations and the diversity of elements on Earth. From tapping into the incredible energy released during the splitting of atomic nuclei to successfully predicting the behavior of stable ones, our progress has been remarkable.

Yet, when we venture into the world of exotic isotopes—those significantly different from their stable counterparts, often with brief lifetimes—our conventional models stumble. My research focuses on exploring these challenges by studying unstable isotopes. More specifically, my focus centers on the study of nuclear structure of tin isotopes through transfer- and Coulomb excitation reactions. The experimental components of these studies will take place at ISOLDE, utilizing the Miniball and ISS setups.
