Intertwined quantum phase transitions in odd-mass Nb isotopes
A. Leviatan, N. Gavrielov, F. Iachello
A detailed analysis of odd-mass Nb isotopes, in the framework of the interacting boson-fermion model with configuration mixing, discloses the effects of an abrupt crossing of state…
Interplay between shape-phase transitions and shape coexistence in the Zr isotopes
N. Gavrielov, A. Leviatan, F. Iachello
We investigate the evolution of structure in the zirconium isotopes where one of the most complex situations encountered in nuclear physics occurs. We demonstrate the role of two c…
Intertwined Quantum Phase Transitions in the Zr Isotopes
N. Gavrielov, A. Leviatan, F. Iachello
We explore the situation of intertwined quantum phase transitions (IQPTs), for which a QPT involving a crossing of two configurations is accompanied by a shape evolution of each co…
Phase space factors and half-life predictions for Majoron emitting decay
J. Kotila, J. Barea, F. Iachello
A complete calculation of phase space factors (PSF) for Majoron emitting decay modes is presented. The calculation makes use of exact Dirac wave functions with finite nu…
Neutrinoless double electron capture
J. Kotila, J. Barea, F. Iachello
Direct determination of the neutrino mass is at the present time one of the most important aims of experimental and theoretical research in nuclear and particle physics. A possible…
Limits on sterile neutrino contributions to neutrinoless double beta decay
J. Barea, J. Kotila, F. Iachello
Nuclear matrix elements (NME) for exchange of arbitrary mass neutrinos are calculated in the interacting boson model (IBM-2). By combining the NME with the phase space factors (PSF…
