Shape coexistence in atomic nuclei

K Heyde, JL Wood - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2011 - APS
Shape coexistence in nuclei appears to be unique in the realm of finite many-body quantum
systems. It differs from the various geometrical arrangements that sometimes occur in a …

Self-consistent mean-field models for nuclear structure
