Critical Behavior in Nuclear Structure from Spherical to γ-Soft Deformed Shape in IBM

Comparing with the predictions of the transitional dynamical symmetry E（5） proposed by Iachello [Phys. Rev. Lett. 85 （2000） 3580], the critical behaviors from U（5）-0（6） are studied in the space of two control parameters in the interacting boson model. A simple shape phase diagram has been presented. It is found that E（5） predictions cannot be exactly reproduced by our calculations and that the best agreement is close to the calculations with boson number N = 9. By comparing with experimental data on E（5）-like nuclei, we find that E（5） predictions and IBM calculations can reproduce the energy ratios and E2 transition ones.

g-boson excitations in the interacting boson model

We have extended the interacting boson model (IBM) by including the g-boson degree of freedom. Schematic model calculations have been carried out in the two different limits: SU(5) and O(6). Particular applications have been carried out for ¹⁰⁴Ru, a nucleus intermediate between SU(5) and O(6). In all cases, energy spectra, E2 and E4 transition rates have been studied in detail and compared with the most recent experimental data for ¹⁰⁴Ru.     

U(5)-SU(3) nuclear shape transition within the interacting boson model applied to dysprosium isotopes

In the framework of the interacting boson model (IBM) with intrinsic coherent state, the shape Hamiltonian from spherical vibrator U(5) to axially symmetric prolate deformed rotator SU(3) are examined. The Hamiltonian used is composed of a single boson energy term and quadrupole term. The potential energy surfaces (PES’ s) corresponding to the U(5)-SU(3) transition are calculated with variation of a scaling and control parameters. The model is applied to ^150–162Dy chain of isotopes. In this chain a change from spherical to well deformed nuclei is observed when moving from the lighter to heavier isotopes. ¹⁵⁶Dy is a good candidate for the critical point symmetry X(5). The parameters of the model are determined by using a computer simulated search program in order to minimize the deviation between our calculated and some selected experimental energy levels, B(E2) transition rates and the two neutron separation energies S_2n. We have also studied the energy ratios and the B(E2) values for the yrast state of the critical nucleus. The nucleon pair transfer intensities between ground-ground and ground-beta states are examined within IBM and boson intrinsic coherent framework.     

Unified description of 0+ states in a large class of nuclear collective models

A remarkably simple regularity in the energies of 0+ states in a broad class of collective models is discussed. A single formula for all 0+ states in flat-bottomed infinite potentials that depends only on the number of dimensions and a simpler expression applicable to all three interacting boson approximation symmetries in the large N(B) limit are presented. Finally, a connection between the energy expression for 0+ states given by the X5 model and the predictions of the interacting boson approximation near the critical point of the first order phase transition is explored.

A simple model of superheavy nuclei

I present a simple algebraic model of superheavy and superdeformed nuclei, produced through heavy-ion collisions, based on a microscopic evaluation of the effective boson numbers in the actinide and superheavy regions. The relevant calculations have been performed within the framework of a deformed shell model, including the pairing interaction between like-particles. As far as the actinide isotopes are concerned, the theoretical boson numbers are compared with the corresponding empirical estimates, obtaining a good agreement. The calculated boson numbers are used to predict collective spectra and electromagnetic transition intensities for actinide — including fission isomers — and superheavy nuclei, by using the interacting boson model (IBM).     

Shell model approach to collectivity in pseudo spin-orbit coupling

A technique is described for shell model calculations in the newly suggested k-i representation of single particle states. The technique allows microscopic calculations for the structure of medium and heavy nuclei in spaces which are truncated in an analogy with the assumptions of the interacting boson model (IBM). The present technique incorporates all the power and generality of standard shell model calculations and provides a unified approach to even-even, even-odd and odd-odd nuclei.     

Microscopic interacting boson model calculations for even-even <Superscript>128–138</Superscript>Ce nuclei

In this study, we determined the most appropriate Hamiltonian that is needed for the present calculations of energy levels and B(E2) values of ^128–138Ce nuclei which have a mass around A≅130 using the interacting boson model (IBM). Using the best-fitted values of parameters in the Hamiltonian of the IBM-2, we have calculated energy levels and B(E2) values for a number of transitions in ^{128,130,132,134,136,138}Ce. The results were compared with the previous experimental and theoretical (PTSM model) data and it was observed that they are in good agreement. Also some predictions of this model have better accuracy than those of PTSM model. It has turned out that the interacting boson approximation (IBA) is fairly reliable for calculating spectra in the entire set of ^{128,130,132,134,136,138}Ce isotopes and the quality of the fits presented in this paper is acceptable.

Mean-field derivation of the interacting boson model Hamiltonian and exotic nuclei

A novel way of determining the Hamiltonian of the interacting boson model (IBM) is proposed. Based on the fact that the potential energy surface of the mean-field model, e.g., the Skyrme model, can be simulated by that of the IBM, parameters of the IBM Hamiltonian are obtained. By this method, the multifermion dynamics of surface deformation can be mapped, in a good approximation, onto a boson system. The validity of this process is examined for Sm and Ba isotopes, and an application is presented to an unexplored territory of the nuclear chart, namely, the right lower corner of 208Pb.     

ΔI= 4 Bifurcation and the sdg Interacting Boson Model

We show that the superdeformed nuclear states can be described in the framework of the interacting boson model (IBM) with the g-bosons being taken into account in this paper.The ΔI= 4 bifurcation in superdeformed rotational bands can be reproduced in the SU(5) limit of the sdg IBM. The perturbation causing the ΔI= 4 bifurcation to emerge in the ΔI= 2 superdeformed rotational band may possess the SU(5) symmetry.

Well-Known Distinctive Signatures of Quantum Phase Transition in Shape Coexistence Configuration of Nuclei

It is interesting that a change of nuclear shape may be described in terms of a phase transition. This paper studies the quantum phase transition of the U(5) to SO(6) in the interacting boson model (IBM) on the finite number N of bosons. This paper explores the well-known distinctive signatures of transition from spherical vibrational to γ-soft shape phase in the IBM with the variation of a control parameter. Quantum phase transitions occur as a result of properties of ground and excited states levels. We apply an affine \(\widehat {SU(1,1)}\) approach to numerically solve non-linear Bethe Ansatz equation and point out what observables are particularly sensitive to the transition. The main aim of this work is to describe the most prominent observables of QPT by using IBM in shape coexistence configuration. We calculate energies of excited states and signatures of QPT as energy surface, energy ratio, energy differences, quadrupole electric transition rates and expectation values of boson number operators and show their behavior in QPT. These observables are calculated and examined for ^{98 ? 102}Mo isotopes.     

Shape Transition and Triaxial Interaction Effect in the Structure of 152-166Dy Isotopes

The positive parity states in even-even ^152-166Dy are studied systematically in the framework of the interacting boson model (IBM). A cubic term, L=3, has been added to the Hamiltonian in order to produce the effect of triaxiality on the energy spectrum. The potential energy surfaces as a function of β and γ deformation parameters, for all isotopes have been produced. Energy levels and reduced electric quadrupole transition probabilities are calculated in framework of IBM with Cubic term (IBMC). All results are compared with available experimental data. It is found that these isotopes can be described by a schematic Hamiltonian in transition from U(5) (vibration) to SU(3) (rotation) dynamic symmetry.
