Shell Evolution towards 28O
- Takashi Nakamura (Tokyo Institute of Technology)
Neutron-rich nuclei at and beyond the magic neutron number 20 are interesting because of the breakdown of this shell closure, and the interplay between nuclear deformation and weak binding in the so-called island of inversion. Here I report on recent ab-initio computations of exotic nuclei in this region starting from chiral Hamiltonians. By breaking and restoring rotational symmetry ab-initio...
The nuclear shell model is one of the remarkable accomplishments in nuclear physics. Intriguingly, nuclear structure changes significantly in highly asymmetric nuclei. A particularly notable region in the chart of nuclei is the island of inversion around the neutron-rich neon to magnesium isotopes. I will discuss the structure of the neutron-rich fluorine isotopes, specifically 28F, 29F, and...
Many experimental and theoretical studies have been devoted to studying doubly magic unstable nuclei as they are important cornerstones for understanding many-nucleon systems located far from the beta stability. The 28O nucleus is the last candidate of the doubly magic unstable nuclei that can be experimentally accessible but has never been observed so far. We have carried out the invariant...
