Isospin symmetry breaking and the nuclear shell model
نویسندگان
چکیده
The effect of isospin symmetry breaking on level statistics has been examined with the nuclear shell model. The eigenvalues and electromagnetic transitions were calculated with the program OXBASH for the nuclide 26Al for conserved isospin and for broken isospin. The long-range correlations of the eigenvalues, as measured by ∆3, show good agreement between the experimental results and the calculations. However, there are discrepancies between data and calculations for the short-range correlations of the eigenvalues. 2004 Published by Elsevier B.V. PACS: 24.80.+y; 21.60.Cs; 24.60.Ky

Extraction of Vud from superallowed Fermi b decay by the Wilkinson techniques
The up–down element Vud of the Cabibbo–Kobayashi–Maskawa (CKM) quark mixing matrix is derived from superallowed Fermi b decays between isospin T 1⁄4 1 states using the semi-empirical techniques pioneered by D.H. Wilkinson. Rather than relying directly on the absolute magnitude of theoretical nuclear structure calculations to correct each decay for isospin symmetry breaking effects, these method...
متن کاملComparative tests of isospin - symmetry - breaking corrections to superallowed 0 + → 0 + nuclear β decay
We present a test with which to evaluate the calculated isospin-symmetry-breaking corrections to superallowed 0+ → 0+ nuclear β decay. The test is based on the corrected experimental F t values being required to satisfy conservation of the vector current (CVC). When applied to six sets of published calculations, the test demonstrates quantitatively that only one set, the one based on the shell ...
متن کامل0 Isospin Symmetry Breaking in Nuclei — ONS Anomaly —
We study the binding energy differences of the valence proton and neutron of the mirror nuclei, O N, F O, Ca K and Sc Ca, using the quarkmeson coupling model. The calculation involves nuclear structure and shell effects explicitly. It is shown that binding energy differences of a few hundred keV arise from the strong interaction, even after subtracting all electromagnetic corrections. The origi...
متن کاملIsospin-violating meson-nucleon vertices as an alternate mechanism of charge-symmetry breaking.
We compute isospin-violating meson-nucleon coupling constants and their consequent charge-symmetry-breaking nucleon-nucleon potentials. The couplings result from evaluating matrix elements of quark currents between nucleon states in a nonrelativistic constituent quark model; the isospin violations arise from the difference in the up and down constituent quark masses. We find, in particular, tha...
متن کاملPseudo-SU(4) Model and Beta Decay of pf-shell Nuclei
The pf-shell (i.e. the 2p 1 2 -2p 3 2 -1f 5 2 shell) is important for a variety of problems in nuclear structure, however, the study of this shell has been hindered by the huge size of the shell model space. In recent years there have been studies by using the Monte-Carlo shell model [1] and that based on the pseudo-SU(4) symmetry model [2]. The original Wigner Supermultiplet SU(4) model[3] is ...
