The recently-proposed effective shell-model interaction, the pairing-plus-multipole Hamiltonian with the monopole interaction obtained by empirical fits starting from the monopole-based universal force (PMMU), is systematically applied to…
The particle-hole symmetry (equivalence) of the full shell-model Hilbert space is straightforward and routinely used in practical calculations. In this work we show that this symmetry is preserved in the subspace truncated at a certain…

Elements of nuclear symmetry energy evaluated from different energy density functionals parametrized by fitting selective bulk properties of few representative nuclei are seen to vary widely. Those obtained from experimental data on nuclear…
The T2K collaboration has recently reported their results, which gives the best-fit values of the atmospheric mixing angle $\sin^2 \theta_{23} = 0.53$ and the Dirac CP-violating phase $\delta = -1.89$ for normal neutrino mass ordering. We…
Two Bi2201 model systems are employed to demonstrate how, beside the Cu-O \sigma-band, a second band of purely O2p\pi character can be made to cross the Fermi level owing to its sensitivity to the local crystal field. This result is…

We consider two competing sets of nuclear magic numbers, namely the harmonic oscillator (HO) set (2, 8, 20, 40, 70, 112, 168, 240,...) and the set corresponding to the proxy-SU(3) scheme, possessing shells 0-2, 2-4, 6-12, 14-26, 28-48,…
The recent developments of radioactive nuclear beams has opened up the possibility of exploring a wide variety of nuclei far from the valley of beta-stability. Of late several theoretical studies have come up in the past for describing…
