A simple model based on the group SO(5) suggests that both the like-particle and neutron-proton components of isovector pairing correlations in odd-A nuclei are Pauli blocked. The same effect emerges from Monte Carlo Shell-model…
The unitary correlation operator method (UCOM) and the similarity renormalization group theory (SRG) are compared and discussed in the framework of no-core Monte Carlo shell model (MCSM) calculations for $^{3}$H and $^{4}$He. The treatment…
It is noted that in a calculation with 4 nucleons with isospin 1 in a single j shell (f_{7/2}, g_{9/2}, h_{11/2}) the state with median angular momentum J = (J_{max}+1)/2 lies very low in energy becoming either an isomeric state or a ground…
Statistical shell model (also called spectral distribution method or statistical spectroscopy method) based on random matrix theory and spherical shell model gives a theory for calculating neutrinoless double beta decay nuclear transition…
Neutron-rich Nd and Sm isotopes are known to exhibit shape phase transition as a function of neutron number. Among them, $^{150}$Nd and $^{150}$Sm are important not only because they are transitional nuclei, but also the parent and daughter…
In previous works we examined the spectra for systems of 2 protons and 2 neutrons, in a single j shell calculation, by obtaining matrix elements from experiment. More recently we considered schematic interactions in the same model space. We…
A novel comparison between the data and the theory is proposed for the nonmesonic (NM) weak decay of hypernuclei. Instead of confronting the primary decay rates, as is usually done, we focus attention on the effective decay rates that are…
We have adopted the multistep shell model in the complex energy plane to study nuclear excitations occurring in the continuum part of the spectrum. In this method one proceeds by solving the shell model equations in a successive manner.…
We study a trapped system of fermions with an attractive zero-range two-body interaction using the Shell-Model Monte Carlo method. The method provides {\em ab initio} results in the low $N$ limit where mean-field theory is not applicable.…
Supersymmetric model contributions to the neutron electric dipole moment arise via quark electric dipole moment operators, whose matrix elements are usually calculated using the Naive Quark Model (NQM). However, experiments indicate that…
We introduce a method for isospin restoration in the calculation of nuclear matrix elements (NME) for $0\nu\beta\beta$ and $2\nu\beta\beta$ decay within the framework of interacting boson model (IBM-2). With this method, we calculate NME…
The one- plus two-body isospin nonconserving nuclear interactions are included in the prediction of ground state energies of fp shell nuclei using spectral distribution theory. This in turn is used to calculate the linear term in the…
A method for making realistic estimates of the density of levels in even-even nuclei is presented making use of the Monte Carlo shell model (MCSM). The procedure follows three basic steps: (1) computation of the thermal energy with the…
Shell model calculations reveal that the ground and low-lying yrast states of the $N=Z$ nuclei $^{92}_{46}$Pd and $^{96}$Cd are mainly built upon isoscalar spin-aligned neutron-proton pairs each carrying the maximum angular momentum J=9…
The three main contributions to the nuclear Hamiltonian - monopole, quadrupole and pairing - are analyzed in a shell model context. The first has to be treated phenomenologically, while the other two can be reliably extracted from the…
The use of dynamical symmetries or spectrum generating algebras for the solution of the nuclear many-body problem is reviewed. General notions of symmetry and dynamical symmetry in quantum mechanics are introduced and illustrated with…
An ensemble of neural networks is employed to extrapolate no-core shell model (NCSM) results to infinite model space for light nuclei. We present a review of our neural network extrapolations of the NCSM results obtained with the Daejeon16…
As is well known, one can arrange the parameters of the O(N) non-linear sigma model to reproduce the low energy S-matrix elements of the renormalizable O(N) linear sigma model. In this note we provide details which are necessary in order to…
We describe the ground state of the isovector pairing Hamiltonian in self-conjugate nuclei by a product of collective quartets of different structure built from two neutrons and two protons coupled to total isospin T=0. The structure of the…
