Toroidal high-spin isomers in light nuclei with N not equal to Z

Nuclear Theory 2016-03-16 v2

Abstract

The combined considerations of both the bulk liquid-drop-type behavior and the quantized aligned rotation with cranked Skyrme-Hartree-Fock approach revealed previously [Phys. Lett. B 738 (2014) 401] that even-even, N=Z, toroidal high-spin isomeric states have general occurrences for light nuclei with A between 28 and 52. We find that in this mass region there are in addition N not equal to Z toroidal high-spin isomers when the single-particle shells for neutrons and protons occur at the same cranked frequency ω\hbar \omega. Examples of N not equal to Z toroidal high-spin isomers, 1636^{36}_{16}S20_{20}(II=74\hbar) and 1840^{40}_{18}Ar22_{22}(II=80,102\hbar), are located and examined. The systematic properties of these N not equal to Z toroidal high-spin isomers fall into the same regular (muti-particle)-(muti-hole) patterns as other N=Z toroidal high-spin isomers.
