We calculate ground-state properties of a many-quark system in the string-flip model using variational Monte Carlo methods. The many-body potential energy of the system is determined by finding the optimal grouping of quarks into hadrons.…
This paper gives an extended model of the atomic nucleus - we call it the YY model, which allows a new description for strong forces from the well-known Standard Model. The forces that hold the nucleus together (protons and neutrons) can be…
The Skyrme model is a classical field theory which has topological soliton solutions. These solitons are candidates for describing nuclei, with an identification between the numbers of solitons and nucleons. We have computed numerically,…

We suggest that the emergence of a large deformation in the magnesium, Mg, nuclides, especially at the Z = 12, N = 12, should be associated with an octahedral deformed shape. Within the framework of molecular geometrical symmetry, we find a…
