Foreword

This proceedings volume contains the invited lectures and contributions presented at the InternationalSummer School on Nuclear Physics held at Trei Brazi a summer resort of the Bioterra University nearthe city of Predeal Romania on 9ndash20 July 2012

The long tradition of International Summer Schools on Nuclear Physics in Romania dates as far backas 1964 with the event being scheduled every two years During this period of almost 50 years manyoutstanding nuclear scientists have lectured on various topics related to nuclear physics and particlephysics This year we celebrate the 80th birthday of Aureliu Sandulescu one of the founders of theRomanian school of theoretical nuclear physics He was Serban Titeicarsquos PhD student one of WernerHeisenbergrsquos PhD students and he organized the first edition of this event Aureliu Sandulescursquos majorcontributions to the field of theoretical nuclear physics are related in particular to the prediction of clusterradioactivity the physics of open quantum systems and the innovative technique of detecting superheavynuclei using the double magic projectile 48Ca (Calcium) nowadays a widely used method at the JINRmdashDubna and GSImdashDarmstadt laboratories The title of the event lsquoDynamics of Open Nuclear Systemsrsquois in recognition of Aureliu Sandulescursquos great personality The lectures were attended by Romanian andforeign Master and PhD students and young researchers in nuclear physics About 25 reputable professorsand researchers in nuclear physics delivered lectures during this period According to a well-establishedtradition an interval of two hours was allotted for each lecture (including discussions) Therefore wekept a balance between the school and conference format Two lectures were held during the morningand afternoon sessions After lecture sessions three or four oral contributions were given by youngscientists This was a good opportunity for them to present the results of their research in front ofrenowned professors and researchers in nuclear physics This proceedings volume is organized into fourchapters which reflects the traditional chapter structure of nuclear physics textbooks but seen from theperspective of open quantum systems

physics of exotic nuclei heavy ion reactions and multi-fragmentation symmetries and phase transitionsof open quantum systems The stability of the atomic nucleus is an important and always interestingdiscussion point especially in the context of newly discovered nuclear systems close to the stability linesuch as protonneutron rich or superheavy nuclei Several lectures and contributions were focused onnuclear structure models describing low-lying states This includes the status of density functional theorynew developments in BohrndashMottelsohn Hamiltonian and shell-model theory protonndashneutron correlationsshape coexistence back-bending phenomena and the thermodynamics of open quantum systems Opensystems in astrophysics such as supernovae and neutron stars were presented in detail by several lecturersImportant topics connected to the status of the equation of state hyperonic and quark matter and neutrinophysics as well as the applications of nuclear structure in astrophysics were also on the Schoolrsquos agenda

There were many discussions and questions both during and after presentations An open and friendlyatmosphere characterized our School although different opinions quite often divided the participantsMany discussions continued during coffee breaks and excursions organized in the beautiful surroundingsWe hope that this proceedings volume will be useful for future reference to both young scientists andsenior researchers working in various fields of nuclear physics

We cannot end without expressing our many thanks to the National Authority for Scientific Researchand the Romanian Academy (Elias Foundation) for their financial support We acknowledge the HoriaHulubei National Institute of Physics and Nuclear Engineering and Bioterra University for their importantcontribution in organizing the School
