Proton Orbital [541]1/2 and Backbending in 178W

The microscopic mechanism of nine experimentally observed bands in ¹⁷⁸W is investigated using the particle-number conserving method of the cranked shell model with monopole and quadrupole paring interactions. The experimental results, including the moments of inertia and angular momentum alignments of nine bands in ¹⁷⁸W, are reproduced well by the particle-number conserving calculations, in which no free parameter is involved. Calculations demonstrate that occurrence of sharp backbending comes mainly from the contribution of high-j intruder orbitals νi13/2 or πh11/2 and their interference effect with orbitals near the Fermi surface. The ω variation of the occupation probability of each cranked orbital and the contribution to moment of inertia from each cranked orbital are analyzed.     

Particle-number conserving analysis for the 2-quasiparticle and high-K multi-quasiparticle states in doubly-odd 174,176Lu

Two-quasiparticle bands and low-lying excited high-K four-, six-, and eight-quasiparticle bands in the doubly-odd ^{174, 176}Lu are analyzed by using the cranked shell model (CSM) with the pairing correlations treated by a particle-number conserving (PNC) method, in which the blocking effects are taken into account exactly. The proton and neutron Nilsson level schemes for ^{174, 176}Lu are taken from the adjacent odd-A Lu and Hf isotopes, which are adopted to reproduce the experimental bandhead energies of the one-quasiproton and one-quasineutron bands of these odd-A Lu and Hf nuclei, respectively. Once the quasiparticle configurations are determined, the experimental bandhead energies and the moments of inertia of these two- and multi-quasiparticle bands are well reproduced by PNC-CSM calculations. The Coriolis mixing of the low-K (K=|Ω₁-Ω₂|) two-quasiparticle band of the Gallagher-Moszkowski doublet with one nucleon in the Ω = 1/2 orbital is analyzed.     

Double-Blocking Effects in Odd-odd Superdeformed Nucleus 194Tl

Six superdeformed bands of odd-odd nucleus ¹⁹⁴Tl in A～190 mass region are studied using the particle-number conserving method for treating the cranked shell model with pairing interactions. Calculated results agree with experiments very well. Based on our calculation the configurations of the six superdeformed bands are assigned and the influence of blocking effects of proton and neutron on moments of inertia is investigated in detail. The variation of moments of inertia with rotational frequency is mainly attributed to the intruder shells (neutron N=7 and proton N=6), whereas the contributions to moment of inertia from other shells remain almost unchanged with rotational frequency.     

Particle-Number Conserving Calculation for Low-Lying Excited High-K Multi-Quasiparticle Bands in 172,174Hf

Using the particle-number conserving method for treating the cranked shell model,the microscopic mechanism of the variation of the kinematic moments of inertia with rotational frequency ω for the rare-earth deformed nuclei ^172,174Hf is investigated. The observed J⁽¹⁾ and angular momentum alignment are reproduced satisfactorily in the PNC calculation,in which no free parameters are involved. The PNC analysis shows that the difference between the variations of J⁽¹⁾ with ω for the high K multi-quasiparticle bands and for ground state band is mainly due to the Pauli blocking effect of high j intruder orbitals near the Fermi surface.

235, 237Np高自旋态的理论研究

锕系核的转动性质对于揭示$A \approx 250 $质量区原子核的顺排机制、对关联性质、能级结构等十分重要,研究这些核的高自旋结构一方面可以对现有的理论模型进行检验,另一方面有助于深入认识超重核。本工作采用基于推转壳模型的粒子数守恒方法研究了实验上观测到的$^{235}{\rm{Np}}$和$^{237}{\rm{Np}}$中转动带的性质,计算得到的转动惯量、角动量顺排等与实验符合。首先,通过描述转动谱的$ab$公式确定了$^{235}{\rm{Np}}$中观测到的转动带的带头自旋。随后,通过对比理论与实验上的转动惯量,确定了其组态为$\pi 5/2^-[523]$。此外,也讨论了高阶形变$\varepsilon_6^{}$对中子$j_{15/2}^{}$顺排的作用,探索了在计算中出现而在实验上未观测到中子$j_{15/2}^{}$顺排的原因,从而解释了$^{235, 237}{\rm{Np}}$的转动带中产生上弯的机制。最后,还讨论了$^{237}{\rm{Np}}$的转动带$\pi 5/2^-[523]$中出现旋称劈裂的原因,发现可能是由于这个转动带的两个旋称分支上弯以后高阶形变$\varepsilon_6^{}$不同所导致的。     

Nonadditivity in moments of inertia of high-K multiquasiparticle bands

The experimental high-K 2- and 3-quasiparticle bands of well deformed rare-earth nuclei are analyzed. It is found that there exists significant nonadditivity in moments of inertia (MOIs) for these bands. The microscopic mechanism of the rotational bands is investigated by the particle number conserving (PNC) method in the frame of cranked shell model with pairing, in which the blocking effects are taken care of exactly. The experimental rotational frequency dependence of these bands is well reproduced in PNC calculations. The nonadditivity in MOIs originates from the destructive interference between Pauli blocking effects.     

Microscopic Mechanism of Large Fluctuation in Odd-Even Differences in Moments of Inertia for Actinide Nuclei

The experimental large fluctuation in odd-even differences in moments of inertia of deformed actinide nuclei is investigated using the particle-number conserving (PNC) method for treating the cranked shell model with monopole and quadrupole pairing interactions. PNC calculations show that the large odd-even difference in moments of inertia mainly comes from the interference contributions j(μν) from particles in high j intruder orbitals μ and ν quite near the Fermi surface, which have no counterpart in the BCS formalism. The effective monopole and quadrupole pairing interaction strengths are determined to fit the experimental odd-even differences in binding energies and bandhead moments of inertia. The experimental results for the variation of moments of inertia with rotational frequency ω are reproduced well by the PNC calculation. The nearly identical experimental moments of inertia between ²³⁶U(gsb) and ²³⁸U(gsb) at low frequencies ħω≤0.20 MeV are also reproduced quite well.     

Microscopic Mechanism of the ω Variation in Moments of Inertia for the Yrast Superdeformed Bands 194Tl(1a, 1b)

The variation in moments of inertia (J(1) and J(2)) with rotational frequency for the superdeformed bandsin odd-odd nuclei, 194Tl(la,lb), is investigated by using the particle-number conserving method for treating the pairinginteraction (monopole and quadrupole). The observed variations of J(1) and J(2) with ω are reproduced quite well inthe calculation and the contributions from each major shell are clearly displayed.     

Microscopic Mechanism of the ω Variation in Moments of Inertia for the Series of Yrast SD Bands 192—198Pb(1) and 198Po(1)

The variations in moments of inertia (J⁽²⁾ and J⁽¹⁾) with rotational frequency for the series of yrast SD bands in even-even nuclei, ^192—198Pb(1) and ¹⁹⁸Po(1), are investigated by using the particle-number conserving method for treating the pairing interaction (monopole and quadrupole). The observed co variations of J⁽²⁾ and J⁽¹⁾ are reproduced quite well in the PNC calculation, particularly the microscopic mechanism (the contributions from each major shell and each cranked Nilsson orbital) is clearly displayed. It is found that the smooth rise of J⁽²⁾ with ω is attributed to the contribution from the intruder shells (neutron N=7 and proton N=6).     

对关联在反磁转动中的作用（英文）

采用基于推转壳模型的粒子数守恒方法对105Cd 和106Cd 中的反磁转动带进行了研究,在计算当中,粒子数严格守恒,并且堵塞效应也是严格考虑的。计算结果很好地再现了实验上观测到的I-Ω 关系、转动惯量以及约化跃迁几率B（E2）。通过检验双剪角,即两个质子空穴角动量的合拢,对反磁转动中的双剪刀机制进行了分析。研究表明剪刀角的合拢非常敏感地依赖于对关联。The antimagnetic rotation bands in 105;106Cd are investigated by the cranked shell model with pairing correlations treated by a particle-number conserving method, in which the blocking effects are taken into account exactly. The experimental moments of inertia, I-Ω relation and the reduced B(E2) transition probabilities are well reproduced. The two-shears-like mechanism for the antimagnetic rotation is investigated by examining the shears angle, i.e., the closing of the two proton hole angular momenta. The sensitive dependence of the shears angle on the nuclear pairing correlations is revealed.

Collective bands in 104,106,108Mo

We have used our analysis of γ-γ-γ data (5.7 × 10¹¹ triples and higher folds) taken with Gammasphere from prompt γ rays emitted in the spontaneous fission of ²⁵²Cf to study the collective bands in ^104,106,108Mo. The one-phonon and two-phonon γ-vibrational bands and known two-quasiparticle bands in neutron-rich ^104,106Mo were extended to higher spins. The one-and two-phonon γ-vibrational bands have remarkably close energies for transitions from the same spin states and identical moments of inertia. Several new bands are observed and are proposed as quasiparticle bands in ^104,106Mo, along with the first β-type vibrational band in ¹⁰⁶Mo. The quasiparticle bands have essentially constant moments of inertia near the rigid-body value that indicate blocking of the pairing interaction. Candidates for chiral doublet bands in ¹⁰⁶Mo are strong. These are the first reported chiral vibrational bands in an even-even nucleus. The text was submitted by the authors in English.     

Further Discussion on the Spin-Determination of Superdeformed Bands in the A～190 Region

The 27 superdeformed bands, whose spin determinations aren't in agreement with two-parameter, three-parameter and four-parameter I(I+1) expansions, are analyzed. The results show that the angular momenta of 18 superdeformed bands can be determined by comparison with the variation of the kinematic and dynamic moments of inertia with rotational frequency and their mutual relation. The angular momenta of superdeformed bands like ¹⁹²Hg(2), which have bands cross, can also determined by analyzing the spectra before bands cross and by comparison with the variation of the kinematic and dynamic moments of inertia with rotational frequency and their mutual relation.     

Backbendings of superdeformed bands in ~(36,40)Ar

Experimentally observed superdeformed(SD) rotational bands in ~(36)Ar and ~(40)Ar are studied by the cranked shell model(CSM) with the pairing correlations treated by a particle-number-conserving(PNC) method.This is the first time that PNC-CSM calculations have been performed on the light nuclear mass region around A=40.The experimental kinematic moments of inertia J~((1))versus rotational frequency are reproduced well. The backbending of the SD band at frequency around ω =1.5 Me V in ~(36)Ar is attributed to the sharp rise of the simultaneous alignments of the neutron and proton 1 d_(5/2)[202]5/2 pairs and 1 f_(7/2)[321]3/2 pairs, which is a consequence of the band crossing between the 1 d_(5/2)[202]5/2 and 1 f_(7/2)[321]3/2 configuration states. The gentle upbending at low frequency of the SD band in ~(40)Ar is mainly affected by the alignments of the neutron 1 f_(7/2)[321]3/2 pairs and proton 1 d_(5/2)[202]5/2 pairs.The PNC-CSM calculations show that besides the diagonal parts, the off-diagonal parts of the alignments play an important role in the rotational behavior of the SD bands.     

Hyperdeformation and clustering in the actinide region

The excitation energy spectrum of fission resonances has been measured with high energy resolution using the ²³⁵U(d,pf) reaction in order to study hyperdeformed (HD) rotational bands and HD nuclear shapes. The moments of inertia of the rotational bands and the energy of the ground state in the third minimum were determined. Another signature of these highly deformed states, their enhanced α decay, was also observed. By studying cold or compact fission in the ²³²Th(n,f) reaction around HD resonances, we obtained data for heavy clustering.     

High-K multi-particle bands and pairing reduction in 254No

The multi-particle states and rotational properties of the two-particle bands in 254No are investigated by the cranked shell model with pairing correlations treated by the particle number conserving method.The rotational bands on top of the two-particle K^π=3^+,8^− and 10^+ states and the pairing reduction are studied theoretically in 254No for the first time.The experimental excitation energies and moments of inertia of the multi-particle states are reproduced well by the calculations.Better agreement with the data is achieved by including the high-order deformation ε6,which leads to enlarged Z=100 and N=152 deformed shell gaps.An increase of J¹ in these two-particle bands compared with the ground state band is attributed to the pairing reduction due to the Pauli blocking effect.
