Systematic study of proton-neutron pairing correlations in the nuclear shell model

Nuclear Theory 2015-05-28 v2

Abstract

A shell-model study of proton-neutron pairing in 2p1f2p1f shell nuclei using a parametrized hamiltonian that includes deformation and spin-orbit effects as well as isoscalar and isovector pairing is reported. By working in a shell-model framework we are able to assess the role of the various modes of proton-neutron pairing in the presence of nuclear deformation without violating symmetries. Results are presented for 44^{44}Ti, 45^{45}Ti, 46^{46}Ti, 46^{46}V and 48^{48}Cr to assess how proton-neutron pair correlations emerge under different scenarios. We also study how the presence of a one-body spin-obit interaction affects the contribution of the various pairing modes.
