Parameter-independent predictions for nuclear shapes and B(E2) transition rates in the proxy-SU(3) model
A. Martinou, S. Peroulis, D. Bonatsos +6
Using a new approximate analytic parameter-free proxy-SU(3) scheme, we make predictions of shape observables for actinides and superheavy elements, namely beta and gamma deformatio…
A new scheme for heavy nuclei: proxy-SU(3)
D. Bonatsos, R. F. Casten, A. Martinou +5
The SU(3) symmetry realized by J. P. Elliott in the sd nuclear shell is destroyed in heavier shells by the strong spin-orbit interaction. However, the SU(3) symmetry has been used…
Parameter free predictions within the proxy-SU(3) model
A. Martinou, D. Bonatsos, I. E. Assimakis +5
Using a new approximate analytic parameter-free proxy-SU(3) scheme, we make predictions of shape observables for deformed nuclei, namely beta and gamma deformation variables, and c…
Foundations of the proxy-SU(3) symmetry in heavy nuclei
I. E. Assimakis, D. Bonatsos, N. Minkov +4
We show that within the proxy-SU(3) scheme the wave functions of the normal parity orbitals in a given nuclear shell are affected very little as a result of the replacement of the…
Proxy-SU(3): A symmetry for heavy nuclei
D. Bonatsos, I. E. Assimakis, N. Minkov +6
The SU(3) symmetry realized by J. P. Elliott in the sd nuclear shell is destroyed in heavier shells by the strong spin-orbit interaction. On the other hand, the SU(3) symmetry has…
Proxy-SU(3) symmetry in heavy nuclei: Prolate dominance and prolate-oblate shape transition
S. Sarantopoulou, D. Bonatsos, I. E. Assimakis +5
Using a new approximate analytic parameter-free proxy-SU(3) scheme, simple predictions for the global feature of prolate dominance and for the locus of the prolate-oblate shape tra…

Proxy-SU(3) symmetry in heavy nuclei: Foundations
Dennis Bonatsos, I. E. Assimakis, N. Minkov +4
An approximate SU(3) symmetry appears in heavy deformed even-even nuclei, by omitting the intruder Nilsson orbital of highest total angular momentum and replacing the rest of the i…

Proxy-SU(3) symmetry in heavy deformed nuclei
Dennis Bonatsos, I. E. Assimakis, N. Minkov +4
Background: Microscopic calculations of heavy nuclei face considerable difficulties due to the sizes of the matrices that need to be solved. Various approximation schemes have been…
