Quantum algebras are a mathematical tool which provides us with a class of symmetries
wider than that of Lie algebras, which are contained in the former as a special case. After a …

Recent high-spin observations reveal entirely new modes of collective rotational motion and
the existence of novel symmetries and spontaneous symmetry breaking phenomena …

Discrete γ rays directly connecting states of a superdeformed (SD) band in 194 Hg to the
yrast states have been discovered. Thus, the excitation energies and spins of all members of …

Cranked relativistic Hartree–Bogoliubov theory without and with approximate particle
number projection by means of the Lipkin–Nogami method is presented in detail as an …

The observation of ΔI= 4 staggering in the rotational spectra of superdeformed nuclei
suggests the occurence of Y44 deformations in the nuclear shape with associated C4v point …

The moments of inertia of super-deformed nuclei in the Hg-Pb region are investigated.
Deformation and pairing effects are treated self-consistently by means of the cranked …

In non-central high energy heavy ion collisions, the colliding system posses a huge orbital
angular momentum in the direction opposite to the normal of the reaction plane. Due to the …

The Δ I= 1 staggering (odd-even staggering) in octupole bands of light actinides is found to
exhibit a “beat” behavior as a function of the angular momentum I, forcing us to revise the …

The drastically expanded use of the Woods-Saxon potential in modern day nuclear physics
and the availability of new nuclear data motivated us to review and optimize the parameters …

It is shown that the ΔI= 2 staggering effect recently discovered in superdeformed rotational
bands could be explained by a phenomenological theory of C 4 v bifurcation. In this …
