Robustness of chiral symmetry in atomic nuclei with reflection-asymmetric shapes

Abstract

The present paper is a comment regarding the robustness of the chirality in presence of the space-reflection asymmetry, which leads to pairs of interleaved positive- and negative-parity bands. The recent results reported in Ref. \cite{2006.12062} which introduced the $chiture$ and $chiplex$ quantum numbers to describe an ideal nuclear system with simultaneous chiral and reflection symmetry breaking, are commented.
