This is a collection of perspective pieces contributed by the participants Institute for Nuclear Theory’s Program on Physics Precision which was held virtually from April 19 to May 7, 2021. The represents reflections vibrant and engaged community researchers status theoretical research in low-energy nuclear physics, challenges ahead, new ideas strategies make progress structure reaction effecti...

In cores of supernovae and crusts of neutron stars, nuclei can adopt interesting shapes, such as rods or slabs, etc., which are referred to as nuclear “pasta.” In recent years, we have studied the pasta phases focusing on their dynamical aspects with a quantum molecular dynamic (QMD) approach. In this article, we review these works. We also focus on the treatment of the Coulomb interaction.

Pursuant to Article 1 of the Convention signed in Paris on 14th December 1960, and which came into force on 30th September 1961, the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) shall promote policies designed: to achieve the highest sustainable economic growth and employment and a rising standard of living in member countries, while maintaining financial stability, and thus to ...

Modern concepts of nuclear reactors cooled with supercritical water are presented together with a short history. The supercritical water-cooled CANDU ((CANada Deuterium Uranium) is a registered trademark of AECL) reactor concept is fully discussed. Also, thermophysical properties at critical and supercritical pressures as well as heat transfer and hydraulic resistance at these conditions are pr...

The author reviewed present status and progress of endocrine nuclear medicine including thyroid, parathyroid, adrenocortical, adrenomedullary and somatostatin receptor imaging and also radionuclide therapy of Basedow's disease, metastatic foci of post-operative thyroid cancer and malignant neural crest tumor. Relatively new imaging agents include 99mTc-MIBI and 99mTc-tetrofosmin for parathyroid...
