New experimental information has been recently obtained on the odd-odd nucleus 134-I. We interpret the five observed excited states up to the energy of ~3 MeV on the basis of a realistic shell-model calculation, and make spin-parity…
We recently formulated a rule for isomeric states for a system of 4 nucleons with isospin T=1, namely that if the nucleons are in a single j shell then states with angular momenta J=2 and J=(2j-1) are either isomeric or ground states…
We show that correlated Gaussians with good angular momentum and parity provide flexible basis functions for specific elongated shape. As its application we study linear-chain states of four-alpha particles in variation-after-projection…
The first investigation of the single-particle structure of the bound states of 17C, via the d(16C, p) transfer reaction, has been undertaken. The measured angular distributions confirm the spin-parity assignments of 1/2+ and 5/2+ for the…
We investigate Hamiltonians with attractive interactions between pairs of fermions coupled to angular momentum J. We show that pairs with spin J are reasonable building blocks for the low-lying states. For systems with only a J = Jmax…
Nuclei exhibit both single-particle and collective degrees of freedom, with the latter often subdivided into vibrational and rotational motions. Experimentally identifying the relative roles of these collective modes is extremely…
A study is carried out of the role of the aligned neutron-proton pair with angular momentum J=9 and isospin T=0 in the low-energy spectroscopy of the $N=Z$ nuclei $^{96}$Cd, $^{94}$Ag, and $^{92}$Pd. Shell-model wave functions resulting…
For natural parity states of several odd-A nuclei a comparison of shell model calculations in the full pf configuration space with the Nilsson diagram and particle-rotor predictions shows that prolate strong coupling applies at low…
Shell model calculations reveal that the ground and low-lying yrast states of the $N=Z$ nuclei $^{92}_{46}$Pd and $^{96}$Cd are mainly built upon isoscalar spin-aligned neutron-proton pairs each carrying the maximum angular momentum J=9…
The shell structures for weakly interacting fermions in harmonic oscillator traps at zero temperature undergo several transitions depending on the number of particles in the trap and their interaction strength. Calculations of the one and…
This work is dedicated to the study of even-even 8-14 Be isotopes using the particle-particle Random Phase Approximation that accounts for two-body correlations in the core nucleus. A better description of energies and two-particle…
We point out a simplicity that arises when we use an interaction in which only an energy with odd J is non-zero. The emphasis is on J=J_{\text{max}} and in particular J=9^{+} in the g_{9/2} shell. It is noted that high overlaps can be…
The angular motion of a few-body system is described with global vectors which depend on the positions of the particles. The previous study using a single global vector is extended to make it possible to describe both natural and unnatural…
The shape phase structure and its transition of the nucleus in the transitional region between the U(5) and SU(3) symmetries is restudied within the framework of coherent-state theory with angular momentum projection in IBM-1. The certain…
In this Brief Report, we propose general expressions for 6j and 9j coefficients arising in the study of the J-pairing interaction of identical fermions in a single-j shell. In the literature such coefficients are available only for a number…
Recently we proposed [62] a fast computing scheme for generalized seniority on spherical single-particle basis. This work redesigns the scheme to make it applicable to deformed single-particle basis. The algorithm is applied to the…
In the single j shell there is a two to one relationship between the spectra of certain even-even and neighbouring odd mass nuclei e.g. the calculated energy levels of J=0^+ states in ^{44}Ti are at twice the energies of corresponding…
We obtain wave functions for 2 protons and 2 neutrons in the g_{9/2} shell expressed as column vectors with amplitudes D(J_{p},J_{n}). When we use a quadrupole-quadrupole interaction (Q.Q) we get, in many cases, a very strong overlap with…
We demonstrate a general method to measure the quantum state of an angular momentum of arbitrary magnitude. The (2F+1) x (2F+1) density matrix is completely determined from a set of Stern-Gerlach measurements with (4F+1) different…
Experimentally observed heaviest $N \approx Z$ nuclei, Ru isotopes, are investigated by the shell model on a spherical basis with the extended $P+QQ$ Hamiltonian. The energy levels of all the Ru isotopes can be explained by the shell model…
