TL;DR: Calculations with the self-consistent relativistic quasiparticle time-blocking approximation and the quAsiparticle phonon model are in qualitative agreement with the experimental results and predict a low-lying isoscalar component dominated by neutron-skin oscillations and a higher-lying more isovector component on the tail of the giant dipole resonance.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed to install a storage ring at an ISOL-type radioactive beam facility for the first time, which can provide a capability for experiments with stored secondary beams that is unique in the world.

TL;DR: The exploration of the unique properties of stored and cooled beams of highly-charged ions as provided by heavy-ion storage rings has opened novel and fascinating research opportunities in the realm of atomic and nuclear physics research as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: Microscopic calculations in the quasiparticle phonon model including complex configurations of up to three phonons agree well with the experimental data in the total integrated strength, in the shape and the fragmentation of the resonance, which allows to draw conclusions on the damping mechanism of the pygmy dipole resonance.

TL;DR: The Darmstadt High-Intensity Photon Setup (DHIPS) for photon-scattering and photodissociation experiments at the superconducting electron linear accelerator S-DALINAC has been improved as discussed by the authors.
