The extremely neutron-rich nucleus ${}^{19}\mathrm{C}$ has been studied by Coulomb dissociation into ${}^{18}\mathrm{C}+n$ at $67A\mathrm{MeV}$.

A β-decaying high-spin isomer in (96)Cd, with a half-life T(1/2)=0.29(-0.10)(+0.11) s, has been established stopped beam rare isotope spectroscopic investigations at GSI (RISING) experiment.

We present a novel technique for studying the quenching of shell gaps in exotic isotopes. The method is based on extracting Gamow-Teller ($\ensuremath{\Delta}L=0$, $\ensuremath{\Delta}S=1$) transition strengths [$B(\mathrm{GT})$] to low-lying states from charge-exchange reactions at intermediate beam energies. These are very sensitive configuration mixing between cross-shell orbitals, and this thus provides an important complement other tools currently used study mixing. This work focuses...
