A search for the self-consistent solutions for the chiral rotational bands in the N=75 isotones, 130Cs, 132La, 134Pr and 136Pm is performed within the Skyrme-Hartree-Fock cranking approach using SKM* and SLy4 parametrizations. The…

Adopting the fully quantal triaxial particle rotor model, the candidate chiral doublet bands in odd-$A$ nuclei $^{103}$Rh and $^{105}$Rh with $\pi g_{9/2}^{-1}\otimes\nu h^{2}_{11/2}$ configuration are studied. For the doublet bands in both…
Applying a relatively simple particle-rotor model to odd-odd nuclei, possible presence of multi chiral pair-bands is looked for, where chiral pair-bands are defined not only by near-degeneracy of the levels of two bands but also by almost…
It is shown that the rotating mean field of triaxial nuclei can break the chiral symmetry. Two nearly degenerate $\Delta I =1 $ rotational bands originate from the left-handed and right-handed solution.
Following the reports of candidate chiral doublet bands observed in cesium isotopes, the possible chiral candidates and the evolution of three-dimensional rotation in $^{120-134}{\textrm{Cs}}$ are investigated within the microscopic…
