Colloquium: Exactly solvable Richardson-Gaudin models for many-body quantum systems

TL;DR: The use of exactly solvable Richardson-Gaudin models to describe the physics of systems with strong pair correlations is reviewed in this paper, where several applications to problems of relevance to condensed-matter physics, nuclear physics, and physics of confined systems are considered.
Journal ArticleDOI

Systematic study of deformed nuclei at the drip lines and beyond

TL;DR: An improved prescription for choosing a transformed harmonic-oscillator (THO) basis for use in configuration-space Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) calculations is presented in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI

Towards a unified microscopic description of nuclear deformation

TL;DR: In this paper, a unified microscopic shell-model framework for nuclear deformation is presented. But the short-range 3 S 1 neutron-proton interaction plays an important role in this discussion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Unified shell-model description of nuclear deformation

TL;DR: In this article, a unified shell-model description of nuclear deformation valid throughout the periodic table is presented, and it is shown that deformation is produced by the isoscalar component of the neutron-proton interaction in this region, as in the lighter ($2s,$1d$)-shell region.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nuclear physics of dark matter detection

TL;DR: In this paper, the elastic scattering of weakly interacting dark matter particles from nuclei is described with laboratory detection in mind, and the lightest neutralino (a neutral fermion predicted by supersymmetry) is considered as a likely candidate.
