三轴形变对102Rh旋称反转的影响

将两准粒子加轴对称转子模型扩展到三轴形变, 对奇奇核102Rh的旋称反转进行了研究和分析, 结果表明, 可能的旋称反转机制 (即低K 空间n p相互作用和科氏力的相互竞争), 对于A=100质量区奇奇核也是适用的, 三轴形变可以明显地改进能谱的振荡特性. The model of an axially symmetric rotor plus two quasi particles for the Signature Inversion (SI) in odd odd nuclei is generalized to the triaxial deformation. The calculation of the odd odd nucleus 102Rh shows that the possible SI mechanism (i. e., the competition between the n p interaction and the coriolis force in low K space) is also appropriate for odd odd nuclei in the A=100 region. A triaxial shape can improve the vibration property of the rotational spectra remarkably.     

奇质量核的超越平均场玻色子费米子模型描述(英文)

对近年发展起来的一个基于核密度泛函理论和粒子核心耦合方案来计算中重质量奇A核谱性质的理论方法进行了评述。该方法首先在平均场层面通过选择合适的能量密度泛函和对力结构来自洽求解偶偶核心的势能曲面、球单粒子能级和奇粒子占有率,进一步将得到的结果作为微观输入来建立相互作用玻色子费米子模型哈密顿量,其中三个与粒子核心耦合强度相关的参数需要通过拟合一些特定奇质量核低激发谱数据来最终确定。通过对轴形变奇质量Eu同位素的低激发能谱和电磁跃迁几率的系统研究来说明该模型方法的有效性。另外,还讨论了该方法在描述轴形变奇质量核形状相变以及描述丰中子奇质量Ba同位素中八极关联方面的应用。A recently developed method for calculating spectroscopic properties of medium-mass and heavy atomic nuclei with an odd number of nucleons is reviewed, that is based on the framework of nuclear energy density functional theory and the particle-core coupling scheme. The deformation energy surface of the eveneven core, as well as the spherical single-particle energies and occupation probabilities of the odd particle(s), are obtained by a self-consistent mean-field calculation with the choice of the energy density functional and pairing properties. These quantities are then used as a microscopic input to build the interacting bosonfermion Hamiltonian. Only three strength parameters for the particle-core coupling are specifically adjusted to selected data for the low-lying states of a particular odd-mass nucleus. The method is illustrated in a systematic study of low-energy excitation spectra and electromagnetic transition rates of axially-deformed odd-mass Eu isotopes. Recent applications of the method, to the calculations of the signatures of shapes phase transitions in axially-deformed odd-mass nuclei, octupole correlations in neutron-rich odd-mass Ba isotopes, are discussed.

RMF理论中Zr同位素链壳结构的形变依赖性

基于球形与轴对称形变的相对论平均场（Relativistic Mean Field, 简称RMF）理论模型, 分别计算了Zr同位素链的基态总能量, 并根据其差值提取了形变修正能后发现, Zr同位素链丰中子区的核具有大的长椭形变, 对应的形变修正能可达到10 MeV。 利用RMF理论计算的基态能量, 在扣除液滴模型计算的结合能后, 得到了Zr同位素链的壳修正能。 通过对壳修正能的分析后发现, 形变使N=50壳效应显著减弱。 特别是在丰中子区, 大形变导致了N=50壳结构的消失。 The total binding energy of nuclei for Zr isotopic chain is calculated by the spherical and axial deformed relativistic mean field(RMF) theory respectively, and the energy contribution due to the deformation(i.e., deformation correction energy) is extracted. It is found that the neutron rich nuclei in the isotopic chain have large prolate deformation, and corresponding deformation correction energy can be up to 10 MeV. The shell correction energy is obtained by the difference between the binding energies calculated by the liquid model and those by the RMF calculations. Detailed analysis indicates that the deformation weakens the shell effect of N=50 remarkably. Especially for the neutron rich nuclei, large deformation leads to disappearance of the N=50 shell structure.     

Decline of nucleation in the heating process with a high heating rate

The effect of the heating rate on the nucleation of metallic glass in a rapid heating process starting from the glass transition temperature is investigated. The critical nucleus radius increases with the increase of the temperature of the undercooling liquid. If the increment rate of the critical nucleus radius, owing to the heating process, is higher than the growth rate of the nuclei, the nuclei generated at the low temperature will become the embryos at the high temperature. This means that the high heating rate can make no nucleation happen in the heating process. In consideration of the interfacial energy, the growth rate of the nuclei increases with the increase of their size and the growth rate of the critical nucleus is zero. Thus, the lower heating rate can also make the nuclei decline partially. Finally, this theory is used to analyze the nucleation process during laser remelting metallic glass.     

稀土区奇A核晕带存在从转动到振动形状演化的直接证据(英文)

原子核的形状演化效应是核结构研究的重要基础问题之一。通常认为,A=160质量区的奇A核位于大形变核区域,它们的激发态能谱将呈现出典型的转动激发特征。然而,基于E-GOS曲线方法,发现随着角动量的增加,该质量区奇A核的晕带具有显著地从转动激发演化成为振动激发的形状演化现象。此外,为深入理解原子核形状演化的微观机制,采用Total-Routhian-Surface（TRS）方法针对稀土区的奇A核进行了理论计算,结果表明,165Yb和157Dy同位素在低激发态时具有稳定的长椭形变,当角动量大于0.50 MeV后,核芯的四极形变显著减小并开始产生三轴形变。The phase transition of nuclei with increasing angular momentum (or spin) and excitation energy is one of the most fundamental topics of nuclear structure research. The odd-N nuclei with A ≈160 are widely considered belonging to the well-deformed region, and their excitation spectra are energetically favored to exhibit the rotational characteristics. In this work, however, the evidence suggesting that the nuclei changes from rotation to vibration along the yrast lines as a function of spin was found. The simple method, named as E-Gamma Over Spin (E-GOS) curves, would be used to discern the evolution from rotational to vibrational structure in nuclei for various spin ranges. Meanwhile, in order to understand the band structure properties of nuclei, theoretical calculations have been performed for the yrast bands of the odd-A rare-earth nuclei within the framework of the total routhian surface (TRS) model. The TRS plots predict that the 165Yb and 157Dy isotopes have large quadrupole shapes at low spin states. At higher rotational frequency (hω~ >0.50 MeV), a clear reduction of the quadrupole deformation is indicated by the present results, and the isotopes become rigid in the γ deformation.     

Spherical and Deformed Shell Closures in Superheavy nuclei

The structure of superheavy nuclei has been studied using the macroscopic-microscopic model. The macroscopic energy was calculated with the continuous medium model in which the energy is expressed as a function of nucleon densities. The deformations and structures of superheavy nuclei were systematically investigated. Calculations reproduce well the available data of experimental α-decay energies and half-lives. The investigation of single-particle levels shows that the shell structure is deformation and isospin dependent. Potential-energy-surface calculations display that superheavy nuclei have in general harder shapes than the nuclei of other mass regions.     

Energy levels of92Nb from 92Zr(p,nγ)92Nb

The energy levels of⁹²Nb were studied by means of the⁹²Zr(p, nγ) reaction. The deexcitation γ-rays were observed with a high-resolution Ge(Li) detector in the proton energy range 3.00–4.80 MeV in steps of about 25 keV. Many new excited states of ⁹²Nb were populated by this reaction. Excitation energies up to 1.77 MeV were determined with high precision, and a level scheme of ⁹²Nb is proposed. From a Hauser-Feshbach analysis, the γ-decay scheme and other information, the spin-parities of many levels were assigned.     

Low-lying states of ~(92,93)Nb excited in the reactions induced by the weakly-bound nucleus ~6Li near the Coulomb barrier

Excited states of odd-odd nucleus ~(92)Nb and odd-A nucleus ~(93)Nb were populated in the 6 Li+ 89 Y reaction with an incident energy of 34 MeV. The processes that produce 92,~(93)Nb and can be measured by a combination of light charged particle and gamma ray measurements are discussed. Twenty new transitions are observed and eight new levels are constructed in ~(92)Nb, and in addition two new transitions are added to the level scheme of ~(93)Nb. Using shell2 model calculations, the low-lying structure of 9 Nb is investigated and compared with the experimental results.     

Nuclear structure around ~(80)Zr

Recent years have witnessed intense activity concerning the study of nuclei with equal numbers of neutrons and protons (N = Z). Exotic properties have been exhibited in the N = Z nuclei, especially in those with atomic masses around 80. In the present paper, the projected shell model(PSM)together with a relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov (RHB) theory is used to study the nuclear structure near the N = Z line in the mass A ≈ 80 region. For three Zr isotopes 80,82,84Zr, the projected potential energy surfaces and ground state bands are calculated. It is shown that shape coexistence occurs in all of these nuclei. Moreover, we find that the residual neutron-proton interaction strongly affects the ground state band of 80Zr; however, it slightly modifies those of 82Zr and 84Zr.     

The level scheme of91Nb from the reaction90Zr (p, γ)91Nb

The level scheme of⁹¹Nb has been investigated with the reaction⁹⁰Zr(p, γ)⁹¹Nb. Proton energies between 3.0 and 7.2 MeV were used. The γ spectra were taken with Ge(Li) detectors. Primary γ transitions to 36 excited states of⁹¹Nb up to 3.8 MeV excitation energy and many secondary γ transitions from the decay of those states were observed, leading to an extension of the known level scheme. The proton binding energy for⁹¹Nb was determined as (5167± 5) keV. Eleven γ transitions in⁹⁰Zr, part of them new, from the competing reaction⁹⁰Zr(p, p′ γ) were also observed.

Scattering from non-overlapping potentials. I. General formulation

The problem of scattering from an assembly of non-overlapping spherical potentials is solved in partial-wave basis for each of the constituent potentials. The resulting scattering operator is a quotient of two infinite matrices and depends on “on-shell” partial wave amplitudes of the individual potentials. It suggests in general a truncation scheme which essentially considers only those partial waves effective for each collision at the given energy. The multiple-scattering series is recovered and limiting cases of low energy and high energy are considered. Applications to high-energy scattering of elementary particles on nuclei are briefly discussed.

质子数Z 分别位于Ru 之上和之下的A~(100~126) 丰中子原子核三轴形变在原子核形状变迁和共存中的重要作用(英文)

基于Ru (Z = 44) 丰中子同位素中存在最大三轴形变的理论预言和实验证据,综述了近年来Rh (Z = 45),Pd (Z =46), Ag (Z =47), Cd (Z =48)(质子数Z 位于Ru,Z =44 之上)及Zr (Z =40), Nb (Z =41), Mo (Z =42),Tc (Z =43)(质子数Z 位于Ru,Z =44 之下) 的A~ (100~126) 丰中子同位素中关于三轴形变的形状变迁和形状共存系统性研究的重要进展。252Cf 自发裂变瞬发 射线-- 三重符合、特别是新建立的--- 四重符合数据的系统观测和研究,在Ru, Pd, Cd 和Nb 丰中子同位素中显著扩展或首次观测到了一系列能带,为这个核区原子核形状的研究提供了新的、重要的实验数据。联系此前报道的有关进展,使用PES, TRS, PSM, CCCSM 和SCTAC 理论模型计算拟合新的实验数据,在该核区沿同中素和同位素链,并随自旋和激发能变化各自由度,跟踪原子核形状渐进变化,获得了新的系统性研究成果,显著扩展和深化了人们对原子核形状变迁和形状共存的认知。对于Ru 及其上的Rh (Z = 45), Pd (Z = 46), Ag (Z = 47) 和Cd (Z = 48) 丰中子同位素的研究表明:Rh 丰中子核具有比最大值稍小的三轴形变,γ = 28°,并在103{106Rh 同位素链上鉴别出了手征对称破缺;在三轴形变核112Ru和114Pd(N = 68)中发现了三轴原子核的摆动运动,该摆动运动也可能在114Ru (N = 70)中存在;观察到了从具有最大三轴形变的110,112Ru 中手征破缺到稍小三轴形变的112,114,116Pd 中扰动的手征破缺的过渡;在较软的Ag 核中观察到了丰富的谱学结构,在104,105Ag 中鉴别出了可能的手征对称破缺,在较重的115,117Ag 中提出了趋于三轴形变的软度;具有小形变的Cd核的能级结构被解释为准粒子耦合、准转动和软三轴形变;最近的库伦激发的研究提供了Z = 50, N = 82满壳附近122,124,126Cd 核中出现核集体性的实验和理论证据;上述研究成果展现出从Ru中的最大三轴形变(γ=30°,三轴形变极小增益为0.67 MeV), 经具有大三轴形变的Rh核γ=28°),到Pd核中的稍小、但稳定于中等自旋到高自旋区的三轴形变(γ~41°,三轴形变极小增益为0.32 MeV),再经Ag核中的软度,最后到具有很小形变、但仍出现集体性质、包括软三轴形变的Cd核的过渡。对于Pd核转动带交叉系统性的研究揭示了其第一带交叉(νh_11/2)2 中子转动顺排的上行驱动,和第二带交叉(πg_9/2)2质子转动顺排的下行驱动效应,成功地解释了114Pd 中的三轴摆动运动,并给出了110-118Pd同位素链中理论早已预言、而比早期理论预言更为完整准确的形状渐进变迁和形状共存的图像。根据该核区的系统研究,发现最大三轴形变出现在112Ru,而在相邻的偶Z(Pd)同位素链,三轴形变极小的中心在114Pd, 两者均为N = 68。上述系统性研究沿相邻的Ru和Pd偶Z同位素链,在N =68同中素中鉴别出最大三轴形变,均比理论预言的108Ru 和110Pd 多4个中子。在Z值位于Ru (Z = 44) 之下的Zr (Z = 40), Nb (Z = 41), Mo (Z = 42) and Tc (Z = 43) 丰中子同位素中,Y和Zr核具有很强的轴对称四极形变,而在较重的Zr同位素中出现了自由度;较重的Nb核(A = 104~106) 基态具有中等程度的软三轴形变和强四极形变,随着自旋和激发能的增加,过渡到接近于轴对称的强四极形变;而较轻的Nb核(A≤103) 基态均接近轴对称形状;在Nb同位素链上基态由球形到强四极形变的形状突变发生在100Nb(N = 59),在100-106Nb同位素链中基态的软三轴形变随中子数增加而增加;在Nb核中还观察到关于软三轴形变的形状共存;Mo核具有大的三轴形变,观察到了振动和手征对称破缺;Tc核具有比最大值稍小的三轴形变,γ=26°,并观察到了手征对称破缺。质子数Z从41到48的A~(100~126)丰中子同位素,特别是Pd和Nb 同位素,呈现出关于三轴形变的过渡特征。This paper reviews the systematic investigations and understanding for the shape transitions and coexistence with regard to triaxial deformations in A s 100 to 126 neutron-rich Rh (Z = 45), Pd (Z = 46), Ag (Z = 47), Cd (Z = 48) and Zr (Z = 40), Nb (Z = 41), Mo (Z = 42), Tc (Z = 43) isotopes with Z beyond and below Ru (Z = 44), respectively, in Ru the maximal triaxial deformation having been predicted and deduced. The recent measurements and studies of prompt triple- and four-fold, γ-γ-γ and γ-γ-γ-γ, coincidence data from the spontaneous fission of 252Cf using Gammasphere have yielded considerable expansion and extension or first observation of the bands in Ru, Pd, Cd, and Nb isotopes,which provided important data for the studies of nuclear shapes in this region. Combined with previous investigations, recent systematic studies of the new data well reproduced by PES, TRS, PSM, CCCSM and SCTAC model calculations have traced shape changes along the isotonic and isotopic chains, respectively,and with changing excitations/spins as well, significantly expanding our knowledge of shape transitions/coexistence in nuclei.For the neutron-rich Ru and beyond, Rh, Pd, Ag and Cd isotopes, triaxial deformations γ= 28°,slightly smaller than the maximal value, were deduced in Rh (Z = 45) isotopes, with chiral symmetry breaking proposed in 103-106Rh; onset of wobbling motions were identified in 112Ru and 114Pd (N =68),and probably also in 114Ru (N =70); evolution from chiral symmetry breaking in 110,112Ru with maximal triaxial deformations to disturbed chirality in 112,114,116Pd with less pronounced triaxial deformations was proposed; rich nuclear structure was proposed in soft Ag isotopes with possible chiral doubling structure suggested in 104,105Ag, and softness towards triaxial deformation proposed in heavier 115,117Ag;quasi-particle couplings, quasi-rotations and soft triaxiality were suggested in Cd (Z =48) isotopes with small deformations; onset of collectivity was recently suggested in 122,124,126Cd in the vicinity of Z =50 and N = 82 closed shells by studies of Coulomb excitations; shape evolutions from maximal triaxial deformations in Ru (γ=30°, with triaxial minimum energy gain of 0.67 MeV), through Rh with large triaxial deformations ( γ=28°), to less pronounced triaxiality in Pd (with triaxial minimum energy gain of 0.32 MeV), then soft triaxiality in Ag, and finally to slightly deformed Cd isotopes but with emergence of collectivity and soft triaxiality were proposed. The systematic studies of the band crossings in Pd revealed up-rising drivings of the first band crossings caused by (νh_11/2)2 and down-sloping drivings of the second band crossings by (πg_9/2)2, explained the onset of wobbling motions in 114Pd,and showed a long-sought picture of shape evolution and coexistence in the Pd isotopic chain which is more complete but complex than earlier predictions. Based on the systematic studies in the mass region,maximal triaxial deformation is found to be reached in 112Ru and less-pronounced triaxiality centered at 114Pd, both for N =68, four neutrons more than predicted in earlier theoretical calculations.In the neutron-rich Zr (Z =40), Nb (Z =41), Mo (Z =42) and Tc (Z =43) isotopes with Z just below Ru, large quadrupole deformations of axially symmetric shapes were deduced in Y and Zr isotopes, with emergence of the degree of freedom having been suggested for heavier Zr isotopes; medium triaxial deformations were deduced for the ground states of heavier (A > 104) Nb isotopes, and, with increasing excitations and spins, evolution from medium triaxial deformations with strong quadrupole deformations at ground states to nearly axially-symmetric shapes were deduced; light Nb isotopes (A6103) have near axially-symmetric shapes with strong quadrupole deformations; combining with the identification of onset of strong quadrupole deformation at 100Nb in the Nb isotopic chain, an increase of soft triaxiality with increasing neutron number was proposed in 100-106Nb. Shape coexistence with regard to soft triaxiality is also proposed in Nb isotopes; large triaxial deformations, vibrations and chiral doublets were proposed in Mo isotopes; chiral doubling and large triaxial deformations (γ ~26°) slightly smaller than the maximal triaxiality were suggested in Tc isotopes.The neutron-rich nuclei with Z ranging from 41 through 48 and A ~100 to 126, especially the Pd and Nb isotopes are thus found to be transitional nuclei with regard to triaxiality.     

Projected Shell Model Description for the Proton Emitters

Proton radioactivity is an important decay mode for nuclei near the proton drip-line. Studies of this decay mode can reveal valuable information on exotic nuclear structure and provide important information on the stucture of nuclei in extreme conditions. The new experimental data can let us understand the interactions in exotic systems, which motivate further theoretical development. The most recent application of the projected shell model (PSM) for proton emitters is represented. We study the rotational bands of the deformed proton emitter 141Ho by using the PSM. The experimental data are well reproduced. Strongly suppressed γ transition from the low-lying IΠ= 3/2+ state makes this state isomeric. Variations in the dynamical moment of inertia are discussed due to band crossings using the band diagram. The calculated results for proton emitter 151Lu shows it is oblately deformed
