Nuclear shape coexistence is the phenomenon in which distinct shapes occur within the
same nucleus and at a similar energy. In this work, we provide an overview of the …

The microscopic origins and the current predictions of the proxy-SU (3) symmetry model of
atomic nuclei were reviewed. Beginning with experimental evidence for the special roles …

Background: The heaviest T z= 0 doubly-magic nucleus, Sn 100, and the neighboring nuclei
offer unique opportunities to investigate the properties of nuclear interaction. For instance …

The empirical spectra and E 2 decay rates in Cd 110, 112, 114, 116 are shown to be
consistent with a vibrational interpretation for low-lying normal states, coexisting with a …

The lifetimes of the first 2+ states in Te 116, 118 were measured by means of the recoil
distance Doppler-shift technique with the CIAE-plunger coupled to a HPGe array via Ag 107 …

Prolate-oblate shape phase transition is an interesting topic in nuclear structure, which is
useful for understanding the intrinsic interactions between nucleons. Recently, the …

The interacting boson model with $ SU (3) $ higher-order interactions offers a new route to
enhance our understanding on γ-soft rotation. In this paper, $ U (5) $-like and $ O (6) $-like …

Low-energy structure of even-even Cd 108− 116 isotopes is analyzed using a collective
model that is based on the nuclear density functional theory. Spectroscopic properties are …

The collective structure of 106 Cd is elucidated by multi-step Coulomb excitation of a 3.849
MeV/A beam of 106 Cd on a 1.1 mg/cm 2 208 Pb target using GRETINA-CHICO2 at ATLAS …

This article is devoted to a review of decay properties of excited 0+ states in regions of the
nuclear chart well known for shape coexistence phenomena. Even-even isotopes around …
