The nucleus 150 Nd was Coulomb excited using 14 N , 58 Ni and 92 Mo beams. The overall result of the experiments performed consists of 780 measured gamma yields, which combined with available spectroscopic data gave about 800 data points to overdetermine the set of matrix elements needed to describe the observed processes. A number of E1, E2 and E3 matrix elements coupling the low-lying states has been determined in a model-independent way. In addition, an influence of E4 moments, competing with double E2 excitations, was tested with the low energy 14 N beam. Possible interpretations of the unusual electromagnetic structure found experimentally may pose the challenge to the theorists.

Low-energy Coulomb excitation is capable of providing unique information on static electromagnetic moments of short-lived excited nuclear states, including non-yrast states. The process selectively populates low-lying collective states and is therefore ideally suited to study phenomena such as shape coexistence and development of exotic deformation (triaxial or octupole shapes). Historically, these experiments were restricted to stable isotopes. However, the advent of new facilities providing intense beams of short-lived radioactive species has opened the possibility to apply this powerful technique to a much wider range of nuclei. We discuss the observables that can be measured in a Coulomb-excitation experiment, their relation to nuclear structure parameters with an emphasis on the nuclear shape, and present some recent examples of Coulomb-excitation studies that provided outcomes relevant for the Shell Model.

Coulomb excitation is one of the rare methods available to obtain information on static electromagnetic moments of short-lived excited nuclear states, including collective non-yrast levels. It is thus an ideal tool to study shape coexistence and shape evolution throughout the nuclear chart. Historically, these experiments were limited to stable isotopes, however the advent of new facilities, providing intense beams of short-lived radioactive species, has opened the possibility to apply this powerful technique to a much wider range of nuclei. Here, we present some recent complex Coulomb-excitation studies and use the example of superdeformed states in 42Ca to demonstrate the sensitivity of the method to second-order effects such as relative signs of electromagnetic matrix elements and quadrupole moments.

Abstract.The electric dipole response of neutron-rich nuclei is discussed from an experimental perspective using selected examples. After introducing the main experimental method, which is relativistic Coulomb excitation in conjunction with invariant-mass spectroscopy, the response of neutron-rich nuclei is discussed separately for light halo nuclei and heavier neutron-rich nuclei. Finally, the perspective for constraining the equation of state of neutron-rich matter close to saturation density from measurements of the dipole response of neutron-rich nuclei is discussed.
