The Nuclear Shell Model towards the Drip Lines
Applications of configuration-mixing methods for nuclei near the proton and neutron drip lines are discussed. A short review of magic numbers is presented. Prospects for advances in the regions of four new “outposts” are highlighted: <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/...
