Symmetry plays an important role in understanding the nuclear structure properties from the rotation of a nucleus to the spin, parity and isospin of nuclear states. This simplifies the complexity of the nuclear problems in one way or the…

Excited states in low-energy spectra in $^{70-76}$Ni are considered. To this end, pairing forces in form of surface delta interaction are employed to account for formation of the ground state multiplet with seniority $\nu = 2$ states. The…

We present a study of the spectroscopic factors for the (d,p) stripping reactions to the ${11/2}^-$ states in the chain of odd-mass Sn (A = 115 - 131) isotopes by using a multi-j generalized seniority approach. The results are in line with…
The concept of seniority plays a central role in nuclear structure physics by classifying many-body states according to the number of unpaired nucleons. While exact seniority conservation holds in single-$j$ systems with $j \leq 7/2$,…
Symmetries are known to play an important role in the low lying level structure of Sn isotopes, mostly in terms of the seniority and generalized seniority schemes. In this paper, we revisit the multi-j generalized seniority approach for the…
