The concept of spontaneous symmetry breaking is applied to the rotating mean field of
nuclei. The description is based on the tilted-axis cranking model, which takes into account …

Magnetic rotation and antimagnetic rotation are exotic rotational phenomena observed in
weakly deformed or near-spherical nuclei, which are respectively interpreted in terms of the …

One of the most interesting features of nuclei is the process by which specific configurations,
manifest as collective rotational bands at intermediate spin values, gradually lose their …

Covariant density functional theory and the tilted axis cranking method are used to
investigate antimagnetic rotation (AMR) in nuclei for the first time in a fully self-consistent …

The self-consistent tilted axis cranking relativistic mean-field theory based on a point-
coupling interaction has been established and applied to investigate systematically the …

▪ Abstract This chapter reviews the experimental properties of shears bands. The most
puzzling characteristic of these structures is the emergence of rotational-like behavior while …

The selfconsistent cranking approach is extended to the case of rotation about an axis which
is tilted with respect to the principal axes of the deformed potential (Tilted Axis Cranking) …

Following a previous Letter [PW Zhao, Phys. Rev. Lett. 107, 122501 (2011) PRLTAO 0031-
9007 10.1103/PhysRevLett. 107.122501] on the first microscopic description of the …

The tilted axis cranking formalism is implemented in relativistic mean field (RMF) theory. It is
used for a microscopic description of magnetic rotation in the framework of covariant density …

In recent years rotational-like sequences of strongly enhanced magnetic dipole (M1)
transitions have been observed in spherical or near-spherical nuclei. Unlike the long-known …
