Isospin symmetry breaking in the mirror pair $^{73}$Sr-$^{73}$Br
Abstract
The recent experimental observation of isospin symmetry breaking (ISB) in the ground states of the mirror pair Sr - Br is theoretically studied using large-scale shell model calculations. The large valence space and the successful PFSDG-U effective interaction used for the nuclear part of the problem capture possible structural changes and provide a robust basis to treat the ISB effects of both electromagnetic and non-electromagnetic origin. The calculated shifts and mirror-energy-differences are consistent with the inversion of the = 1/2 states between Sr - Br, and suggest that the role played by the Coulomb interaction is dominant. An isospin breaking contribution of nuclear origin is estimated to be keV.
