We discuss characteristic features of SU(3) partial dynamical symmetry in relation to nuclear spectroscopy and compare with previous broken-SU(3) calculations for ^{168}Er.
We present an example of a partial dynamical symmetry (PDS) in an interacting fermion system and demonstrate the close relationship of the associated Hamiltonians with a realistic quadrupole-quadrupole interaction, thus shedding new light…
We examine several types of symmetries which are relevant to quantum phase transitions in nuclei. These include: critical-point, quasidynamical, and partial dynamical symmetries.
In this work nuclear structure properties of $^{86,87,88,89}$Y isotopes have been investigated using large-scale shell-model calculations within the full $f_{5/2}pg_{9/2}$ model space. The calculations have been performed with JUN45 and…
Complete diagonalizations in the pf major shell, lead to very good agreement with the experimental data (level schemes, transitions rates, and static moments) for the A=47 and A=49 isotopes of Ca, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, and Mn. Gamow-Teller and M1…
We introduce the notion of a partial dynamical symmetry for which a prescribed symmetry is neither exact nor completely broken. We survey the different types of partial dynamical symmetries and present empirical examples in each category.
Partial dynamical symmetry describes a situation in which some eigenstates have a symmetry which the quantum Hamiltonian does not share. This property is shown to have a classical analogue in which some tori in phase space are associated…
The role of discrete (or point-group) symmetries in alpha-cluster nuclei is discussed in the framework of the algebraic cluster model which describes the relative motion of the alpha-particles. Particular attention is paid to the discrete…
Performing a shell model calculation for heavy nuclei has been a long-standing problem in nuclear physics. Here we propose one possible solution. The central idea of this proposal is to take the advantages of two existing models, the…
We introduce the notions of partial dynamical symmetry (PDS) and quasi dynamical symmetry (QDS) and demonstrate their relevance to nuclear spectroscopy, to quantum phase transitions and to mixed systems with regularity and chaos. The…
This overview focuses on the notion of partial dynamical symmetry (PDS), for which a prescribed symmetry is obeyed by a subset of solvable eigenstates, but is not shared by the Hamiltonian. General algorithms are presented to identify…
We show that distinct emergent symmetries, such as partial dynamical symmetry and quasi dynamical symmetry, can occur simultaneously in the same or different eigenstates of the Hamiltonian. Implications for nuclear spectroscopy in the…
We propose the use of partial dynamical symmetry (PDS) as a selection criterion for higher-order terms in situations when a prescribed symmetry is obeyed by some states and is strongly broken in others. The procedure is demonstrated in a…
In this contribution, I discuss the role of symmetries and algebraic methods in nuclear structure physics. In particular, I review some recent developments in nuclear supersymmetry and indicate possible applications for light nuclei in the…
We discuss a hierarchy of broken symmetries with special emphasis on partial dynamical symmetries (PDS). The latter correspond to a situation in which a non-invariant Hamiltonian accommodates a subset of solvable eigenstates with good…
Recent studies show that for systems with four identical fermions in the $j=9/2$ shell two special states, which have seniority $v=4$ and total spins I=4 and 6, are eigenstates of any two-body interaction. These states have good seniority…
We use the empirical evidence that F-spin multiplets exist in nuclei for only selected states as an indication that F-spin can be regarded as a partial symmetry. We show that there is a class of non-F-scalar IBM-2 Hamiltonians with partial…
According to the analysis based on the fermion dynamical symmetry model, nuclei previously regarded as SO(6)-like (e.g. $^{128}$Xe and $^{196}$Pt) are shown to be more akin to the transitional nuclei between SO(7) and SO(6) symmetries.
In the present work we report comprehensive set of shell model calculations for arsenic isotopes. We performed shell model calculations with two recent effective interactions JUN45 and jj44b. The overall results for the energy levels and…
We consider the possibility of identifying nuclei exhibiting the SU(3) dynamical symmetry as those having excitation energy ratio R4/2 >= 3.25. For this purpose, we consider the level statistics of some of these nuclei and perform…
