Description

In this paper, we investigate regular patterns of matrix elements of the nuclear shell model Hamiltonian H, by sorting the diagonal matrix elements from the smaller to the larger values. By using simple plots of nonzero matrix elements and lowest eigenvalues of artificially constructed submatrices h of H, we propose a new and simple formula, which predicts the lowest eigenvalue with remarkable precision.
