Symmetries in Atomic Nuclei
From Isospin to Supersymmetry
Article
Prompt gamma rays of terbium emitted after (n,nʹγ) inelastic scattering reactions induced by irradiation of a terbium(III) hexahydrate (TbCl3·6H2O) sample with a beam of fission neutrons were investigated with th...

Prompt gamma rays of cerium and chlorine were investigated with the FaNGaS (Fast Neutron-induced Gamma-ray Spectrometry) instrument operated at the Heinz Maier-Leibnitz Zentrum (MLZ) in Garching. The gamma rad...

Emission of prompt gamma rays following (n,n’), (n,p) and (n,α) reactions induced by irradiation of a calcium carbonate (CaCO3) sample with a beam of fission neutrons was investigated with a modified version of t...
Article
There has been limited research devoted to secondary electron emission (SEE) from nano-materials using rapid and heavy ion bombardment. Here we report a comparison of SEE properties between novel nano-material...

Chapter
As has become increasingly clear, symmetries in physics, particularly in the microscopic domain, are intimately related to the dynamics of the systems being studied. Symmetry methods and concepts have become e...
Chapter
While in the previous chapter symmetry techniques were presented from a general perspective with potential applications in all fields of quantum physics, in this chapter we turn our attention to atomic nuclei....
Chapter
One particularly important extension of the interacting boson model (IBM) concerns odd-mass nuclei, achieved by considering, in addition to the bosons, a fermion coupled to the core with an appropriate boson–f...
Chapter
In this chapter we present the logical combination of ideas introduced previously. In Chap. 4 fermion degrees of freedom were introduced in the interacting boson m...
Chapter
Symmetry, together with its mathematical formulation in terms of group theory, has played an increasingly pivotal role in quantum mechanics. Although symmetry ideas can be applied to classical physics, they ha...
Chapter
In the second group of symmetry-based models, a nucleus is treated as a system of interacting bosons which are of composite character and represent correlated pairs of nucleons. The choice of the different bos...
Chapter
Atomic nuclei consist of neutrons and protons. This seemingly trivial observation has far-reaching consequences as far as the structure of nuclei is concerned. Neutrons and protons are the elementary building ...
Chapter
In this chapter we describe briefly, for the sake of completeness, some of the ideas and applications of supersymmetry, as defined and understood in other fields of physics. Supersymmetry was originally introd...
