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_{max} and in particular J=9+ in the g_{9/2} shell. It is noted that high overlaps can be deceptive. In…
In order to treat tensor force explicitly, we propose a microscopic model for nuclear structure based on antisymmetrized molecular dynamics (AMD). As a result of the present study, it is found that some extentions of the AMD method are…

There exist in nature a few nuclear isomers with very low (eV) excitation energies, and the combination of low energy and narrow width makes them possible candidates for laser-based investigations. The best candidate is the lowest-energy…
It is noted that in a calculation with 4 nucleons with isospin 1 in a single j shell (f_{7/2}, g_{9/2}, h_{11/2}) the state with median angular momentum J = (J_{max}+1)/2 lies very low in energy becoming either an isomeric state or a ground…
