Future directions in nuclear decay at FRIB and beyond
Garrett B. King, Ayala Glick-Magid, Grigor Sargsyan +38
Motivated by the opportunities presented for studies relevant to nuclear structure, astrophysics, and fundamental symmetries with nuclear decay, the Facility for Rare Isotope B…
Symplectic no-core configuration interaction framework for nuclear structure
Anna E. McCoy, Mark A. Caprio, Patrick J. Fasano +1
We present the symplectic no-core configuration interaction (SpNCCI) framework, in which the nuclear many-body problem is solved a symmetry-adapted basis that explicitly encodes ap…
Deformation-driven intruder states in light island-of-inversion nuclei
Calvin W. Johnson, Mark A. Caprio, Shwetha L. Vittal
Islands of inversion occur when the nuclear ground state is dominated by intruder configurations, specifically particle-hole excitations across shell gaps, rather than by the naive…
Symmetry and shape coexistence in 10Be
M. A. Caprio, A. E. McCoy, P. J. Fasano +1
Within the low-lying spectrum of 10Be, multiple rotational bands are found, with strikingly different moments of inertia. A proposed interpretation has been that these bands variou…
Analytic descriptions for transitional nuclei near the critical point
M. A. Caprio, F. Iachello
Exact solutions of the Bohr Hamiltonian with a five-dimensional square well potential, in isolation or coupled to a fermion by the five-dimensional spin-orbit interaction, are cons…
