Three-State Mixing as a Phenomenological Framework for Multiple Shape Coexistence
Marco Siciliano
Shape coexistence represents one of the most striking manifestations of competing collective and single-particle degrees of freedom in atomic nuclei. While the coexistence and mixi…
Beyond Sphericity in a Semi-Magic Nucleus: Multiple-Shape Coexistence in Sn
