All nuclei with even numbers of protons and of neutrons have ground states with zero angular momentum. This is ascribed to the pairing force between nucleons, but simulations with random interactions suggest a much broader many-body…
In the single j-shell, the configuration of an even-even Ti isotope consists of 2 protons and n neutrons. The I=0 wave function can be written in terms of D(J,Jv)'s, which are the probability amplitudes for the 2 protons to couple to J and…
We explore generic ground-state and low-energy statistical properties of many-body bosonic and fermionic one- and two-body random ensembles (TBRE) in the dense limit, and contrast them with Random Matrix Theory (RMT). Weak differences in…
We consider symmetries which arise when two-body interaction matrix elements with isopin T=0 are set equal to a constant in a single-j -shell calculation. The nucleus ^{96} Cd is used as an example.
Combining analytical and numerical methods, we investigate properties of the two-body random ensemble (TBRE). We compare the TBRE with the Gaussian orthogonal ensemble of random matrices. Using the geometric properties of the nuclear shell…
The ground states of all even-even nuclei have angular momentum, $I$, equal to zero, I=0, and positive parity, $\pi=+$. This feature was believed to be a consequence of the attractive short-range interaction between nucleons. However, in…
The symmetries of the $t=1$ and $t=0$ pair-fields are different. The consequences for rotational spectra are discussed. For $t=1$, the concept of spontaneous breaking and subsequent restoration of the isospin symmetry turns out to be…
The two-body random ensemble (TBRE) for a many-body bosonic theory is mapped to a problem of random polynomials on the unit interval. In this way one can understand the predominance of 0+ ground states, and analytic expressions can be…
The relativistic two-body problem is considered for spinless particles subject to an external macroscopic electromagnetic field. When this field is made of the monochromatic superposition of two counter-propagating plane waves (and provided…
Recent calculations using random two-body interactions showed a preponderance of J(P)=0(+) ground states, despite the fact that there is no strong pairing character in the force. We carry out an analysis of a system of identical particles…
We investigate the motion of one and two charged non-relativistic particles on a sphere in the presence of a magnetic field of uniform strength. For one particle, the motion is always circular, and determined by a simple relation between…
We calculate the equation of state of pure neutron matter, comparing the G-matrix calculation with the in-medium T-matrix result. At low densities, we obtain similar energies per nucleon, however some differences appear at higher densities.…
Symmetric nuclear matter is studied in the self-consistent, in-medium $T$-matrix approach. One-body spectral function, optical potential, and scattering width are calculated. Properties of quasi-particle excitations at the Fermi surface are…
A cranked mean-field model with two-body T=1 and T=0 pairing interactions is presented. Approximate projection onto good particle-number is enforced via an extended Lipkin-Nogami scheme. Our calculations suggest the simultaneous presence of…
We study the range of the elements of the neutrino mass matrix m_nu in the charged lepton basis. Neutrino-less double beta decay is sensitive to the ee element of m_nu. We then analyze the phenomenological implications of single texture…
There has been a great deal of attention to the low lying energy spectum in a nucleus becuse of the abundance of experimetal data. Likewise ,perhaps to a lesser extent but still significant the high end for a given configuratiion has been…
The density matrix of a two-level system (spin, atom) is usually determined by measuring the three non-commuting components of the Pauli vector. This density matrix can also be obtained via the measurement data of two commuting variables,…
The two-body t-matrix is calculated directly as function of two vector momenta for different Malfliet-Tjon type potentials. At a few hundred MeV projectile energy the total amplitude is quite a smooth function showing only a strong peak in…
We discuss how the thermalization of an elementary quantum system is modified when the system is placed in an environment out of thermal equilibrium. To this aim we provide a detailed investigation of the dynamics of an atomic system placed…
