A generic explanation for the recently observed anomalous crossing frequencies in odd proton rare earth nuclei is given. As an example, the proton ${1\over 2} [541]$ band in $^{175}$Ta is discussed in detail by using the angular momentum…
Structure of two sets of mirror nuclei: 47V - 47Cr and 49Cr - 49Mn, as well as 49V and 51Mn, is studied using the projected shell model. Their yrast spectra are described as an interplay between the angular momentum projected states around…

A systematic study of 2-quasiparticle bands of the proton-rich odd-odd nuclei in the mass A ~ 70-80 region is performed using the projected shell model approach. The study includes Br-, Rb-, and Y-isotopes with N = Z+2, and Z+4. We describe…
Rotational bands with (neutron h_11/2)^1 (proton h_11/2)^1 configurations are studied using a particle-rotor model in which a proton and a neutron quasiparticles interacting through a zero-range force are coupled with a triaxial rotor. It…

A particle rotor model with a quasi-neutron coupled with a triaxially deformed rotor is applied to study signature splitting for bands with intruder orbital $\nu7/2^{+} [633]$ and non-intruder orbital $\nu5/2^{-}[512]$ in $^{173}$W.…
It has been conjectured that the string and unification scales may be substantially lower than previously believed, perhaps a few TeV. In scenarios of this type, orbiting detectors such OWL or AIRWATCH can observe spectacular phenomena at…
The microscopic analysis of experimental data in $^{160,162}$Tm is presented within the two-quasiparticle-phonon model. The model includes the interaction between odd quasiparticles and their coupling with core vibrations. The coupling…
