Playing Dice with Nuclei: Pattern out of Randomness?
arXiv:nucl-th/0111010
Abstract
We review recent results obtained in numerical studies of the nuclear shell model and the interacting boson model with random interactions, in particular the dominance of ground states with L=0 and the occurrence of vibrational and rotational bands. We discuss some possible explanations of the origin of these regular features.
