The role of L=0 pairing interactions (both T=0 and T=1) in three selected bands with the total isospin T=0 in 22Na, 48Cr and 90Rh nuclei is discussed in the spherical shell model. These bands were selected requiring termination in a most…
We have performed shell-model calculations for nuclei below 100Sn, focusing attention on the two N=Z nuclei 96Cd and 92Pd, the latter having been recently the subject of great experimental and theoretical interest. We have considered nuclei…
The nucleus 49Cr has been studied analysing gamma-gamma coincidences in the reaction 46Ti(alpha,n)49Cr at the bombarding energy of 12 MeV. The level scheme has been greatly extended at low excitation energy and several new lifetimes have…
We apply an {\it ab-initio} approach to the nuclear structure of odd-mass nuclei straddling $^{48}Ca$. Starting with the NN interaction, that fits two-body scattering and bound state data we evaluate the nuclear properties of $A = 47$ and…

We perform shell model calculations for $^{48}$Cr using GXPF1A and FPD6 interactions by varying single particle energies. We find a scaling behavior which leads to the finding that many different sets of interactions with vastly different…
New experimental data on the behaviour of the single-particle two-dimensional correlation functions R versus Q (Q is the number of nucleons emitted from nuc- lei) and Ap (Ap is the mass of projectile nuclei) are presented in this paper. The…
The collective yrast band of the nucleus $^{48}$Cr is studied using the spherical shell model and the HFB method. Both approaches produce basically the same axially symmetric intrinsic state up to the - accurately reproduced - observed…
Calculations in the sd and pf shells reported some time ago by Satu\l a\etal\ [Phys.~Lett.~B~407, 103 (1997)] are redone for an extended analysis of the results. As in the original work, we do calculations for one mass number in each shell…
We study the dynamics of correlations in a paradigmatic setup to observe $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric physics: a pair of coupled oscillators, one subject to a gain one to a loss. Starting from a coherent state, quantum correlations (QCs) are…
In this paper, we scrutinize the ability of seniority-zero wavefunction-based methods to model different types of non-covalent interactions, such as hydrogen bonds, dispersion, and mixed non-covalent interactions as well as prototypical…
Starting from a set of different two- and three-nucleon interactions from chiral effective field theory, we use the importance-truncated no-core shell model for ab initio calculations of excitation energies as well as electric quadrupole…
We discuss L=0 vs L=2 couplings, symmetries of the pairing interaction for neutrons and protons, and the J_{max} interaction. We show that certain schematic interactions yield exponentially decreasing transition strengths.We compare shell…
The influence of the isoscalar and isovector L=0 pairing components of the effective nucleon-nucleon interaction is evaluated for several isobaric chains, in the framework of full pf shell model calculations. We show that the combined…
The competition between the isovector (T=1) and isoscalar (T=0) proton-neutron ($p-n$) correlations in $N=Z$ nuclei is investigated by calculating their correlation energies with a realistic effective interaction which reproduces observed…

Reactions that involve the direct and sudden removal of a pair of like or unlike nucleons from a fast projectile beam by a light target nucleus are considered. Specifically, we study the three two-nucleon removal channels from $^{12}${C}…
We study the behaviour of a nonrelativistic quantum particle interacting with different potentials in the spacetimes of topological defects. We find the energy spectra and show how they differ from their free-space values.
We report the first no-core shell model results for $^{48}Ca$, $^{48}Sc$ and $^{48}Ti$ with derived and modified two-body Hamiltonians. We use an oscillator basis with a limited $\hbar\Omega$ range around $45/A^{1/3}-25/A^{2/3} = 10.5 MeV$…
