Understanding Chaos via Nuclei
arXiv:1410.3618 · doi:10.1063/1.4861698
Abstract
We use two models of nuclear collective dynamics - the geometric collective model and the interacting boson model - to illustrate principles of classical and quantum chaos. We propose these models as a suitable testing ground for further elaborations of the general theory of chaos in both classical and quantum domains.
