1 Valence p-n interactions, shell model for deformed nuclei and the physics of exotic nuclei Rick Casten WNSL, Dec 9, 2014
2 How can we understand nuclear behavior? Two approaches: 1) Nucleons in orbits and their interactions [Independent particle model and shell model] 2) Look at nucleus as an entity in itself a many-body system with shape, symmetries, quantum numbers
3 Doubly magic plus 2 nucleons R 4/2 < 2.0 Vibrator (H.O.) E(J) = n ( ω 0 ) R 4/2 = 2.0 Rotor E(J) ( ħ 2 /2I )J(J+1) R 4/2 = n = n = 1 n = 0
4 Broad perspective on structural evolution Proton Number Neutron Number E(2 1 + ) Proton Number Neutron Number R 4/ The remarkable regularity of these patterns is one of the beauties of nuclear systematics and one of the challenges to nuclear theory. Whether they persist far off stability is one of the fascinating questions for the future
5 Why this behavior? Titanic struggle between good and good - - between the pairing interaction (two nucleons in the same orbit like to couple their angular momenta to zero) and the valence p-n interaction (which drives nuclei to deformed shapes)
6 The idea of both types of nucleons the p-n interaction Sn Magic: no valence p-n interactions Both valence protons and neutrons Lower energies imply correlations and collectivity mixing of IPM wave functions due to residual interactions.
7 Valence p-n interaction: Can we measure it? δvpn (Z,N) = - ¼ [ {B(Z,N) - B(Z, N-2)} - {B(Z-2, N) - B(Z-2, N-2)} ] p n p n p n p n Int. of last two n with Z protons, N-2 neutrons and with each other - Int. of last two n with Z-2 protons, N-2 neutrons and with each other Empirical average interaction of last two neutrons with last two protons
8 How do we expect them to behave? Difficult to calculate in detail but general predictions possible p-n interaction is short range similar orbits give largest p-n interaction LOW j, HIGH n HIGH j, LOW n Largest p-n interactions if proton and neutron shells are filling similar orbits
9 π High j, low n ν Empirical p-n interaction strengths indeed strongest along diagonal. Empirical p-n interaction strengths stronger in like than unlike regions. Direct correlation of observed growth rates of collectivity with empirical p-n interaction strengths
10 What happens to the Independent Particle Model when nuclei are not spherical? Answer: Very interesting things. Lets see what they are
11 Deformed (ellipsoidal) nuclei Nuclear many-body potentials and shapes Nuclear shape defined by two quantities, β, γ. β defines the elongation of the nucleus, γ defines its axial asymmetry. R = R 0 [1 + β cosγ Y 20 (θ,φ) + β sin γ Y 22 (θ,φ)] What are the orbits and energies of individual nucleons around a nucleus like this? In other words, what does the Independent Particle Model look like for deformed nuclei? β, elongation The answer is called the Nilsson model and the result is called a Nilsson diagram (sometimes known as a spaghetti diagram)
12
13 The answer: The Nilsson diagram First impression: Aaaarrghh, Ugh, Yuk!!!!! Goal: to understand this diagram, and how to use it, without ANY calculation whatsoever (OK, maybe a sine or cosine), and to be able to construct it for an arbitrary nuclear shape. Need only two ingredients: Nuclear force is short range and attractive Two level mixing
14 First clue: other regions of single particle levels have very similar-looking Nilsson Diagrams. So something must be simple about it. In fact, its utterly simple

20 This is the essence of the Nilsson model and diagram. Just repeat this idea for EACH j-orbit of the spherical shell model. Voila, the Nilsson Diagram (almost)!!! There is only one other ingredient needed. Note that some of the lines are curved! What does this mean? Where does that come from?
21 Suppose we have a Hamiltonian H = H 0 + H resid. where H 0 has a set of eigenstates X i The eigenstates of H will therefore be mixtures of those of H 0, that is linear combinations of the X i with coefficients C i. (In our case, H 0 will be the Hamiltonian of the SPHERICAL shell model that we have been discussing. H resid. will be the terms that mix different IPM single particle states because the nucleus is deformed.) 2-State mixing (of course, you all know this from Q. Mech brief review of key feature for the Nilsson model)
