Effective theory for deformed nuclei
arXiv:1011.5026 · doi:10.1016/j.nuclphysa.2010.12.013
Abstract
Techniques from effective field theory are applied to nuclear rotation. This approach exploits the spontaneous breaking of rotational symmetry and the separation of scale between low-energy Nambu-Goldstone rotational modes and high-energy vibrational and nucleonic degrees of freedom. A power counting is established and the Hamiltonian is constructed at next-to-leading order.
