Precision masses of neutron-rich platinum and gold nuclei reveal enhanced shell strength below doubly-magic Pb

David Freire-Fernández, Rui-Jiu Chen, Usama Ahmed +63

The heaviest stable nuclei in the universe owe their existence to quantum shell structure, the grouping of protons and neutrons into discrete energy levels separated by gaps. The l…

Numerical analysis of transient orbits by the pullback method for covariant Lyapunov vector

Takayuki Yamaguchi, Makoto Iima

In order to analyze structure of tangent spaces of a transient orbit, we propose a new algorithm which pulls back vectors in tangent spaces along the orbit by using a calculation m…
