21 Underlying mechanism of the appearance of low-lying deformed states : Type II Shell Evolution Monopole effects on the shell structure from the tensor interaction Type I Shell Evolution : different isotopes : particles Type II Shell Evolution : within the same nucleus : particles : holes

22 Type II Shell Evolution in 68 Ni (Z=28, N=40) g 9/2 PES along axially symmetric shape f 5/2 f 7/2 f 5/2 Reset Hamiltonian with Type II SE suppressed Spin-orbit splijng works against quadrupole deforma@on (cf. Ellio) s SU(3) ). weakening of spin-orbit splitting Type II shell evolution stronger deformation of protons à more neutron p-h excitation original Type II shell evolution is suppressed by resetting monopole interactions as πf 7/2 - νg 9/2 = πf 5/2 - νg 9/2 πf 7/2 - νf 5/2 = πf 5/2 - νf 5/2 The local minima become much less pronounced. Shape coexistence is enhanced by type II shell evolution as the same quadrupole interaction works more efficiently.

24 Liquid 1 (~constant spherical SPE) Atomic nucleus is a quantum liquid Dual quantum liquids in the same nucleus Certain configurations produce different shell structures owing to (i) tensor force and (ii) proton-neutron compositions Liquid 2 (varying spherical SPE) Landau relevant to normal states in general relevant to specific intruder states core core core core proton neutron proton neutron Note : density -> single-particle energies in other many-body systems

25 Fission and Type II shell evolution There could be a general mechanism to increase fission probability. Specific massive particle-hole excitations driving Type II shell evolution -> lowering of barrier and minimum -> more tunneling in any kind The suppression of this mechanism, e.g., by Pauli principle, hinders fission, leading to the Island of Stability. 25

26 Summary and perspectives Quantum Liquid picture (of Landau) with stable shell structure (a la Mayer-Jensen) has been a good conceptual guidance for most of states of many nuclei near the stability line on the Segre chart. Nuclear forces, including tensor force, produce Type I Shell Evolution in many domains on the nuclear chart particularly away from the stability line, presenting a paradigm shift. Type I Shell Evolution appears in Gogny-GT2 calculation as well as in EFT + EKK calc. etc. There is another new aspect, Type II Shell Evolution, enhancing and stabilizing shape coexistence in a non-linear way. This is a general feature, resulting in Dual Quantum Liquid picture. Could we solve the problem of (spontaneous) fission? Could it be a way to Island of Stability? 26

31 As N or Z is changed in an open shell, the shell structure is changed (evolved), and the change can be descriobed by Monopole component of the NN interaction Averaged over possible orientations Linearity: Shift n j : # of particles in j This can be substantial change in exotic nuclei. For j = 9/2, the multiplication by a factor of 10! Poves and Zuker made a major contribution in initiating systematic use of the monopole interaction. (Poves and Zuker, Phys. Rep. 70, 235 (1981))
