Background: Symmetries are a powerful way to characterize nuclear wave functions. A true dynamical symmetry, where the Hamiltonian is block-diagonal in subspaces defined by the group, is rare. More likely is a quasidynamical symmetry:…
Double-$\gamma$ vibrations in deformed nuclei are studied in the context of the interacting boson model with special reference to their anharmonic character. It is shown that large anharmonicities can be obtained with interactions that are…
The Quasi-SU(3) symmetry was uncovered in full pf and sdg shell-model calculations for both even-even and odd-even nuclei. It manifests itself through a dominance of single-particle and quadrupole-quadrupole terms in the Hamiltonian used to…
