The structure of the Ζ,Ν < 50 nuclei is examined in a model space consisting of the 0g9/2, 1p1/2, 1p3/2 and the 0f5/2 hole orbitals outside the doubly closed 100Sn core. The effective interaction for this model space is derived by introducing second order corrections to the Sussex matrix elements, while the one-hole energies are deduced by a least square fit to the observed levels. The results of the calculation are found to be in very satisfactory agreement with experiment for all nuclei with 38<Ζ<46 but for Ζ<38 this agreement begins to deteriorate. Such a feature possibly indicates the appearance of deformation and the breaking of the Ν=50 core. The wavefunctions of the calculation are used to determine double β matrix elements in the Ge, Se, Sr and Kr isotopes.

The properties of nuclei with 39≤Ζ≤47 and Ν=51-52 are investigated in large scale shell-model calculations. The doubly closed nucleus 100Sn is selected as the reference state and the nuclei under examination are described in terms of proton holes and one up two neutrons outside the inert core. The proton holes are distributed in a model space consisting of the orbitals g9/2, p1/2, p3/2 while f5/2 is sometimes also considerd. Similary the model space for the neutron particles in­ cludes the orbitals g7/2, d5/2, d3/2, s1/2 and in certain cases h11/2. The effective two-body interaction and the matrix elements of the effective operators were deter­ mined by introducing second-order corrections to the Sussex matrix elements. The single proton holes as well as the single-neutron energies were treated as parameters which were determined by least-squares fit to the observed levels of 39≤Ζ≤47, Ν=50 and Ν=51 respectively. The results of the calculation were found to be in satisfactory agreement with experimental data and this enable us to make predictions about the properties of some exotic nuclei in the vicinity of 100Sn.

The negative-parity states of 24Mg nucleus are investigated within the shell model. We are based on the calculations of energy levels, total squared form factors, and transition probability using the p-sd-pf (PSDPF) Hamiltonian in a large model space (0 + 1) hW. The comparison between the experimental and theoretical states showed a good agreement within a truncated model space. The PSDPF-based calculations successfully reproduced the data on the total squared form factors and transition probabilities of the negative-parity states in 24Mg nucleus. These quantities depend on the one-body density matrix elements that are obtained from the PSDPF Hamiltonian. The wave functions of radial one-particle matrix elements calculated with the harmonic-oscillator potential are suitable to predict experimental data by changing the center-of-mass corrections.

Results obtained for the energy spectra and the low-lying positive-parity energy eigenstates of the upper p f -shell nuclei 64Ge and 68Se with the use of the effective interaction JUN45 are reported. We address the question of how appropriate is the possibility to construct a symmetry-adapted shell model in a single oscillator shell using a Pairing-plus-Quadrupole Hamiltonian. Specifically, we study the goodness of the symmetries pseudo SU(3) and O(6) in the structure of the energy eigenstates. Finally, we relate our results to a proposed mixed-symmetry approach which is able to simultaneously account for the presence of both the pairing and the quadrupole modes as the most important ingredients in the effective interaction while using a restricted part of the full model space.


A method is derived for calculating matrix elements of a two-body interaction in wave functions which were classified in part I interms of the group U 2- . For simplicity, a Cartesian basis of intrinsic functions is introduced in which the one-dimensional oscillators in x, y and z are separately diagonal. An application to 24 Mg in L-S coupling shows very little mixing of the quantum number K but an appreciable (10 to 20 %) mixing of U 3 representations (λμ). Overall agreement with experiment is quantitatively only tolerable but the main pattern of the spectrum is undoubtedly given by the lowest representation (84). On this basis, suggestions are made concerning the type of spectra to be expected for even and odd parity levels of the even-even nuclei in the mass region 16 < A < 40.

The calculations of the shell model, based on the large basis, were carried out for studying the nuclear 29-34Mg structure. Binding energy, single neutron separation energy, neutron shell gap, two neutron separation energy, and reduced transition probability, are explained with the consideration of the contributions of the high-energy configurations beyond the model space of sd-shell. The wave functions for these nuclei are used from the model of the shell with the use of the USDA 2-body effective interaction. The OBDM elements are computed with the use of NuShellX@MSU shell model code that utilizes the formalism of proton-neutron.

The nuclear matrix elements of PU operators entering in the 0v ßß-decay of 76Ge-->76Se have been calculated explicitly  in the context of QRPA within the model space 0f7/2 - 0h11/2. T h e validity of the closure approximation has been tested and seems to be quite satisfactory for those matrix elements which are not usually suppressed. Our results indicate that they are dominated by multipoles other than 0+ and 1+ and that the matrix elements are comparable to those of shell model calculations.

   Chaotic features of nuclear energy spectrum in 68Ge nucleus are investigated by nuclear shell model. The energies are calculated through doing shell model calculations employing the OXBASH computer code with effective interaction of F5PVH. The 68Ge nucleus is supposed to have an inert core of 56Ni with 12 nucleons (4 protons and 8 neutrons) move in the f5p-model space ( and ). The nuclear level density of considered classes of states is seen to have a Gaussian form, which is in accord with the prediction of other theoretical studies. The statistical fluctuations of the energy spectrum (the level spacing P(s) and the Dyson-Mehta (or statistics) are well described by the Gaussian orthogonal ensemble (GOE). Furthermore, these fluctuations are independent on the spin J.

The equations derived help to evaluate semi-analytically (mostly for k=1,2 or 3) the important Coulomb integrals Int rho(r1)…rho(rk) W(r1,…,rk) dr1…drk, where the one-electron density, rho(r1), is a linear combination (LC) of Gaussian functions of position vector variable r1. It is capable to describe the electron clouds in molecules, solids or any media/ensemble of materials, weight W is the distance operator indicated in the title. R stands for nucleus-electron and r for electron-electron distances. The n=m=0 case is trivial, the (n,m)=(1,0) and (0,1) cases, for which analytical expressions are well known, are widely used in the practice of computation chemistry (CC) or physics, and analytical expressions are also known for the cases n,m=0,1,2. The rest of the cases – mainly with any real (integer, non-integer, positive or negative) n and m - needs evaluation. We base this on the Gaussian expansion of |r|^-u, of which only the u=1 is the physical Coulomb potential, but the u≠1 cases are useful for (certain series based) correction for (the different) approximate solutions of Schrödinger equation, for example, in its wave-function corrections or correlation calculations. Solving the related linear equation system (LES), the expansion |r|^-u about equal SUM(k=0toL)SUM(i=1toM) Cik r^2k exp(-Aik r^2) is analyzed for |r| = r12 or RC1 with least square fit (LSF) and modified Taylor expansion. These evaluated analytic expressions for Coulomb integrals (up to Gaussian function integrand and the Gaussian expansion of |r|^-u) are useful for the manipulation with higher moments of inter-electronic distances via W, even for approximating Hamiltonian.

The electric quadrupole moments for some scandium isotopes (41, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47Sc) have been calculated using the shell model in the proton-neutron formalism. Excitations out of major shell model space were taken into account through a microscopic theory which is called core polarization effectives. The set of effective charges adopted in the theoretical calculations emerging about the core polarization effect. NushellX@MSU code was used to calculate one body density matrix (OBDM). The simple harmonic oscillator potential has been used to generate the single particle matrix elements. Our theoretical calculations for the quadrupole moments used the two types of effective interactions to obtain the best interaction compared with the experimental data. The theoretical results of the quadrupole moments for some scandium isotopes performed with FPD6 interaction and Bohr-Mottelson effective charge agree with experimental values.
