Nuclear shell structure and chaotic dynamics in hexadecapole deformation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The effect of an axially symmetric hexadecapole term is investigated in a strongly deformed quadrupole potential. While the system is nonintegrable and shows significant chaotic behaviour classically, the quantum mechanical treatment not only produces a general smoothing effect with regard to chaos but even yields a pronounced shell structure at certain hexadecapole strength parameter values for oblate and prolate deformation.

Evolution of deformations in medium-mass nuclei
Evolution of quadrupole deformations in sd and pf shell nuclei with mass A= 18∼56 is studied by using deformed Skyrme Hartree-Fock (HF) model with pairing correlations. We point out that the quadrupole deformations of the nuclei with the isospin T=0 and T=1 show strong mass number dependence as a clear manifestation of dynamical evolution of deformation in nuclear many-body systems. The competi...
متن کاملChaos in axially symmetric potentials with octupole deformation.
Classical and quantum mechanical results are reported for the single particle motion in a harmonic oscillator potential which is characterized by a quadrupole deformation and an additional octupole deformation. The chaotic character of the motion is strongly dependent on the quadrupole deformation in that for a prolate deformation virtually no chaos is discernible while for the oblate case the ...

A major property of confined Fermi system is the quantisation of single particle motion. It leads to a bunching of levels in the single particle spectrum, known as shells, and gives rise to magic numbers in finite Fermi systems. Consequently, a spherical symmetry leads to very strong shell effects manifested in the stability of the noble gases, nuclei and metallic clusters [1, 2]. Recently the ...
متن کاملMultipolar correlations and deformation effect on nuclear transi- tion matrix elements of double-β decay
The two neutrino and neutrinoless double beta decay of Zr, Mo, Ru, Pd, Te and Nd isotopes for the 0 → 0 transition is studied within the PHFB framework along with an effective two-body interaction consisting of pairing, quadrupole-quadrupole and hexadecapole-hexadecapole correlations. It is found that the effect of hexadecapolar correlations can be assimilated substantially as a renormalization...
متن کاملHyperfine structure of the metastable P2 state of alkaline-earth-metal atoms as an accurate probe of nuclear magnetic octupole moments
Measuring the hyperfine structure HFS of long-lived P2 states of divalent atoms may offer the opportunity of extracting relatively unexplored nuclear magnetic octupole and electric hexadecapole moments. Here, using relativistic many-body methods of atomic structure and the nuclear shell model, we evaluate the effect of these higher nuclear moments on the hyperfine structure. We find that the se...
