The superdeformed band, recently discovered in Ca-40 is analysed in an spherical shell model context. Two major oscillator shells, sd and pf are necessary to describe it. The yrast band of the fixed 8p-8h configuration fits extremely well…
Large scale shell model calculations in two major oscillator shells (sd and pf) describe simultaneously the super-deformed excited band of 36Ar and its low-lying states of dominant sd character. In addition, several two particle two hole…
Deformed states in $^{40}$Ca are investigated with a method of antisymmetrized molecular dynamics. Above the spherical ground state, rotational bands arise from a normal deformation and a superdeformation as well as an oblate deformation.…
It has been debated whether the experimentally-identified superdeformed rotational band in $^{40}$Ar [E. Ideguchi, et al., Phys. Lett. B 686 (2010) 18] has an axially or triaxially deformed shape. Projected shell model calculations with…
With the use of the symmetry-unrestricted cranked SHF method in the 3D coordinate-mesh representation, a systematic search for the SD and HD rotational bands in the N=Z nuclei from 32S to 48Cr has been done, and SD and HD solutions have…

A rotational band with five $\gamma$-ray transitions ranging from 2$^{+}$ to 12$^{+}$ states was identified in $^{40}$Ar. This band is linked through $\gamma$ transitions from the excited 2$^{+}$, 4$^{+}$ and 6$^{+}$ levels to the low-lying…
The structures of the ground and excited states of sd-shell nuclei: Ca-40 and Ar-36 were studied with a method of antisymmetrized molecular dynamics. Recently observed rotational bands were described with deformed intrinsic states which are…
Background: The observation of the superdeformed (SD) bands in $^{60,62}$Zn indicates that the particle number 30 is a magic particle number, where two and four neutron single-particles are considered to be promoted to the intruder…
The projected shell model implements shell model configuration mixing in the projected deformed basis. Our analysis on the recently observed superdeformed band in $^{36}$Ar suggests that the neutron and proton 2-quasiparticle and the…
Experimentally observed superdeformed (SD) rotational bands in $^{36}$Ar and $^{40}$Ar are studied by the cranked shell model (CSM) with the paring correlations treated by a particle-number-conserving (PNC) method. This is the first time…
We study the shape coexistence of differently deformed states within $^{28}$Si using shell-model and beyond-mean-field techniques. Experimentally, $^{28}$Si exhibits shape coexistence between an oblate ground state and an excited prolate…
