Partial conservation of seniority in nuclei
P. Van Isacker
A review is given of the relation between pairing, quasi-spin algebras and seniority. The former two concepts are closely connected, the relation being that the quasi-spin formalis…
The scientific legacy of J. P. Elliott
P. Van Isacker
James Philip Elliott, one of the towering figures of nuclear physics of the second half of the twentieth century, died on the 21st of October 2008. Obituaries appeared in the Briti…
Description of nuclei in the A100 mass region with the interacting boson model
M. Böyükata, P. Van Isacker, I. Uluer
Even--even nuclei in the mass region are investigated within the framework of the interacting boson model-1 ({IBM-1}). The study includes energy spectra and electric qua…
Effective three-body interactions in nuclei
P. Van Isacker, I. Talmi
It is shown that the three-body forces in the shell, for which recently evidence was found on the basis of spectroscopic properties of the Ca isotopes and isotone…
Pair-vibrational states in the presence of neutron-proton pairing
R. R. Chasman, P. Van Isacker
Pair vibrations are studied for a Hamiltonian with neutron-neutron, proton-proton and neutron-proton pairing. The spectrum is found to be rich in strongly correlated, low-lying exc…
