Quantum phase transition in the shape of Zr isotopes

T Togashi, Y Tsunoda, T Otsuka, N Shimizu - Physical Review Letters, 2016 - APS
The rapid shape change in Zr isotopes near neutron number N= 60 is identified to be
caused by type II shell evolution associated with massive proton excitations to its 0 g 9/2 …

Quest of shape coexistence in Zr isotopes

JE García-Ramos, K Heyde - Physical Review C, 2019 - APS
Background: The mass region with A≈ 100 and Z≈ 40 is known to experience a sudden
onset of deformation. The presence of the subshell closure Z= 40 makes it feasible to create …

Zr isotopes as a region of intertwined quantum phase transitions

N Gavrielov, A Leviatan, F Iachello - Physical Review C, 2022 - APS
The zirconium isotopes with A= 92–110 have one of the most complicated evolution of
structure in the nuclear chart. In order to understand the structural evolution of these …

Explanations for anomalies of muon anomalous magnetic dipole moment, , and radiative neutrino masses in a leptoquark model

T Nomura, H Okada - Physical Review D, 2021 - APS
We propose a leptoquark model simultaneously to explain anomalies of muon anomalous
magnetic dipole moment and b→ s μ μ¯ in light of experimental reports very recently. Here …

At the borderline of shape coexistence: Mo and Ru

E Maya-Barbecho, S Baid, JM Arias, JE García-Ramos - Physical Review C, 2023 - APS
Background: Even-even isotopes of Mo (Z= 42) and Ru (Z= 44) are nuclei close to the
subshell closure at Z= 40, where shape coexistence plays a significant role. As a result, their …

Islands of shape coexistence from single-particle spectra in covariant density functional theory

D Bonatsos, KE Karakatsanis, A Martinou… - Physical Review C, 2022 - APS
Using covariant density functional theory with the DDME2 functional and labeling single-
particle energy orbitals by Nilsson quantum numbers, a search for particle-hole (ph) …

Evidence for Coexisting Shapes through Lifetime Measurements in

P Singh, W Korten, TW Hagen, A Görgen, L Grente… - Physical review …, 2018 - APS
The lifetimes of the first excited 2+, 4+, and 6+ states in Zr 98 were measured with the recoil-
distance Doppler shift method in an experiment performed at GANIL. Excited states in Zr 98 …

Abrupt shape transition at neutron number : values in from fast timing

Lifetimes of low-lying yrast states in neutron-rich Sr 94, 96, 98 have been measured by
Germanium-gated γ-γ fast timing with LaBr 3 (Ce) detectors using the EXILL&FATIMA …

Intertwined quantum phase transitions in the Zr isotopes

N Gavrielov, A Leviatan, F Iachello - Physical Review C, 2019 - APS
We explore the situation of intertwined quantum phase transitions (IQPTs), for which a QPT
involving a crossing of two configurations is accompanied by a shape evolution of each …
