Nuclear Structure Physics
Theory of Collective Motions in Finite Fermion Systems

I am particularly interested in exploring new modes of collective excitations in rapidly rotating superdeformed nuclei and of developing microscopic models of them. I am also trying to understand the origins of deformed shell structures from the viewpoint of semiclassical periodic-orbit theory. My major aim in these studies is to understand regular and chaotic modes of motion in finite Fermion systems in a unified manner.
