The two-neutron halo is a unique three-body system that has pushed the frontier of nuclear structure to discover new phenomena. An interesting question is whether the correlation of the two-neutrons can sustain a coherent oscillation giving rise to a soft dipole resonance. While this has been a subject of investigation since several years, a conclusive answer is not yet reached. The proton...

The studies of the structure and the spectroscopy of neutron-rich nuclei are important for our understanding of the evolution of the nuclear structure towards the drip-line. They have shown that the shell model picture established in the valley of stability is modified, and that local magic numbers may appear.
Low-lying resonances or new magic shells represent stringent tests for the nuclear...

The study of the Isoscalar Giant Monopole Resonance (ISGMR) and the Isoscalar Giant Quadrupole Resonance (ISGQR) in stable nuclei have provided relevant information on both nuclear matter and nuclear structure in the past decades. For instance, the ISGMR centroid can be linked to the incompressibility modulus of the infinite nuclear matter. Values for exotic nuclei would help in constraining...
