Nuclear ground-state masses and deformations: FRDM(2012)

TL;DR: In this article, the atomic mass excesses and binding energies, ground-state shell-plus-pairing corrections, ground state microscopic corrections, and nuclear ground state deformations of 9318 nuclei ranging from 16O to A = 339 were tabulated.

Coexistence in even-mass nuclei

TL;DR: In this article, two main theoretical approaches for shape coexistence in doubly even nuclei are presented, the shell model and the deformed mean field approach, which is broadly defined so that it includes various truncation schemes, including generalized seniority and the interacting boson model.

Spontaneous symmetry breaking in rotating nuclei

TL;DR: In this article, the concept of spontaneous symmetry breaking is applied to the rotating mean field of nuclei, which is based on the tilted-axis cranking model, taking into account that the rotational axis can take any orientation with respect to the deformed density distribution.

Quantum groups and their applications in nuclear physics

TL;DR: In this article, a self-contained introduction to the necessary mathematical tools (q-numbers, q-analysis and q-oscillators), the suq(2) rotator model and its extensions, the construction of deformed exactly soluble models (u(3)so(3), model, Interacting Boson Model, Moszkowski model), the 3-dimensional q-deformed harmonic oscillator imd its relation to the nuclear shell model, and the symmetries of the anisotropic quantum harmonic oscillators with rational ratios of frequencies.

Stability of heavy and superheavy elements

TL;DR: In this article, the authors review several important experimental and theoretical developments that during the past decade have revived interest in the stability properties of the heavy elements and discuss the importance of a "few-parameter approach" and of solving a Schrodinger equation for accurately obtaining microscopic effects.

Shell effects in nuclear masses and deformation energies

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors calculate the shell-model correction to the liquid drop energy of the nucleus as a function of the occupation number and deformation, and show a strong correlation between the shell correction and nucleon level density at the Fermi energy.

Funny Hills: The Shell-Correction Approach to Nuclear Shell Effects and Its Applications to the Fission Process

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed various results related to the single-particle structure in spherical and deformed nuclei, discussed from the viewpoint of the so-called shell-correction method.

On the nuclear structure and stability of heavy and superheavy elements

TL;DR: In this article, a modified oscillator model is used to calculate the nuclear potential energy surfaces as a function of deformations. And the average behavior of the surface is normalized to that of a liquid drop through the employment of a generalized Strutinsky prescription, and a synthesis of the single-particle model and the liquid-drop model is obtained.

“Shells” in deformed nuclei

TL;DR: In this article, the shell correction method was used to calculate the effect of nucleon shells in deformed and spherical nuclei, and the results were presented in such a way as to illustrate more clearly the effects of shell shells on nucleon nuclei.

Equilibrium configurations of rotating charged or gravitating liquid masses with surface tension. II

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss in a unified manner configurations of idealized atomic nuclei, rotating liquid drops and rotating idealized astronomical masses with surface tension, and the existence of super-deformed nuclei.
