Shell structure at high spin and the influence on nuclear shapes

  • 1. Argonne National Lab., IL (USA)

Description

Nuclear structure at high spin is influenced by a combination of liquid drop and shell structure effects. For N < 86 both contribute towards the occurrence along the yrast line of high-spin oblate aligned-particle configurations. Shell effects are mainly responsible for the prolate deformation of nuclei with N > 90. The competition between oblate and prolate driving effects leads to a prolate-to-oblate shape transition in 66154Dy88. The role of rotation-aligned configurations in the shape change is discussed.
