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_{\text{max}} and in particular J=9^{+} in the g_{9/2} shell. It is noted that high overlaps can be…
The $^{4}$He nucleus is a well bound and highly correlated four-nucleon system that is also found in form of $\alpha$-clusters as substructure in nuclear many-body systems. The standard single-particle shell model cannot represent these…
The low-lying structures of the midshell $\nu g_{9/2}$ Ni isotopes $^{72}$Ni and $^{74}$Ni have been investigated at the RIBF facility in RIKEN within the EURICA collaboration. Previously unobserved low-lying states were accessed for the…
Excitation energies of the $T$=1 states in even-even as well as $T$=0 and $T$=1 states in odd-odd $N$=$Z$ nuclei are calculated within the mean-field approach. It is shown that the underlying structure of these states can be determined in a…
The spectral and statistical properties of nuclei $^{46}$V and $^{48}$Cr are studied in the framework of nuclear shell model. A microscopical effective Hamiltonian derived from the CD-Bonn \textit{NN} potential is employed. The calculations…
Recent experiments have reached the neutron-rich Cr isotope with N=40 and confirmed enhanced collectivity near this sub-shell. The current data focus on low-spin spectroscopy only, with little information on the states where high-j…
For single-$j$ shells with $j={7/2}, {9/2}$ and 11/2, we relate the large probability of $I^+$ ground states to the largest (smallest) coefficients $\alpha^J_{I(v \beta)} = <nv \beta I |$ $A^{J \dagger} \cdot A^J | n v\beta I>$, where $n$…
Shell model calculations using realistic interactions reveal that the ground and low-lying yrast states of the $N=Z$ nucleus $^{92}_{46}$Pd are mainly built upon isoscalar neutron-proton pairs each carrying the maximum angular momentum J=9…
Unlike their lighter counterparts, most odd-odd N=Z nuclei with mass A > 40 40 have ground states with isospin T=1, suggesting an increased role for the isovector pairing interaction. A simple SO(5) seniority-like model of this interaction…
Background: The ground state neutron density of a medium mass nucleus contains fundamental nuclear structure information and is at present relatively poorly known. Purpose: We explore if parity violating elastic electron scattering can…
The properties of nuclei with extreme neutron-to-proton ratios, far from those naturally occurring on Earth, are key to understand nuclear forces and how nucleons hold together to form nuclei. $^7$H, with six neutrons and a single proton,…
The excitation energies of single analog states in even-odd Ti isotopes and double analog states in even-even Ti isotopes are microscopically described in a single j-shell formalism. A projection procedure for generalized BCS states has…
The $6^{+}_{1}$ and $6^{+}_{2}$ in $^{48}$Ti form a nearly degenerate doublet. In a single j shell calculation with the matrix elements from experiment the $6^{+}_{1}$ changes sign under the interchange of protons and neutron holes (odd…
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…
Background: Whether or not the $\alpha$ ($^4$He nucleus) clustering exists in the medium-mass region of nuclear systems is a fundamental and intriguing question. However, the recent analysis of the $\alpha$ knockout reaction on $^{48}$Ti…
We consider the ratio RE4 = B(E2,4\rightarrow2)/B(E2,2\rightarrow 0) for the lowest 2^{+} and 4^{+} states in even-even nuclei. In the rotatonal and vibrational models and the shell model calculations here considered, RE4 is greater than…
Experimentally observed heaviest $N \approx Z$ nuclei, Ru isotopes, are investigated by the shell model on a spherical basis with the extended $P+QQ$ Hamiltonian. The energy levels of all the Ru isotopes can be explained by the shell model…
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…
For each of the (9/2), (11/2) and (13/2) single j shells we have only one state with J=j V=3 for a five particle system. For four identical particles there can be more than one state of seniority four. We note some ``ratio'' relations for…
The spin and parity ($J^{\pi}$) assignments in even-even nuclei were reviewed across the nuclear chart using the Evaluated Nuclear Structure Data File (ENSDF). The prevalence of 2$^+_1$ first or lowest excited states is confirmed. The…
