A systematic analysis of the $\alpha$ + core structure is performed in the ground state bands of even-even nuclei of the $22 \leq Z \leq 42$ region in terms of the Local Potential Model. The $\alpha$ + core interaction is described by the…
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_{max} and in particular J=9+ in the g_{9/2} shell. It is noted that high overlaps can be deceptive. In…

The rotating nuclei represent one of most interesting subjects for theoretical and experimental studies. They open a new dimension of nuclear landscape, namely, spin direction. Contrary to the majority of nuclear systems, their properties…
