Digital Nuclear Shell Model

Mixed Symmetry Nuclear Shell Model

A mixed-symmetry nuclear shell-model scheme for carrying out calculations in regimes where there is a competition between two or more modes is proposed. A one-dimensional toy model is used to demonstrate the concept. The theory is then applied to 24Mg and 44T i. For lower pf -shell nuclei such as 44−48T i and 48Cr there is strong SU(3) symmetry breaking due to the spin-orbit interaction. Howeve...

Beyond the nuclear shell model

© 2007 American Institute of Physics, S-0031-9228-0711-030-9 Nuclei, the fuel that burns in stars, make up 99.9% of all baryonic matter in the universe.1 The complex nature of the nuclear forces among protons and neutrons generates a broad range and diversity of nuclear phenomena. Developing a comprehensive description of nuclei and their reactions represents one of the great intellectual oppor...

Effective interactions for the nuclear shell model

Various perturbative and non-perturbative many-body techniques are discussed in this work. Especially, we will focus on the summation of so-called Parquet diagrams with emphasis on applications to finite nuclei. Here, the subset of two-body Parquet equations will be discussed. A practical implementation of the corresponding equations for studies of effective interactions for finite nuclei is ou...
