Generalized Richardson-Gaudin Nuclear Models

Abstract

The exact solvability of several nuclear models with non-degenerate single-particle energies is outlined and leads to a generalization of integrable Richardson-Gaudin models, like the $su(2)$-based fermion pairing, to any simple Lie algebra. As an example, the $so(5)\sim sp(4)$ model of T=1 pairing is discussed and illustrated for the case of ${}^{64}$Ge with non-degenerate single-particle energies.
