The nature of γ-bands is discussed through the variation of the energy of the lowest 2+ excitation and the energies of excited level sequence of γ-bands with respect to various parameters. The shape phase transition observed at N = 88-90 is reviewed through the γ-band. We attempted to find a correlation between the properties of ground band and the γ-band. The band head energy of γ-band is fo

Modern ab initio approaches, like the IM-SRG, the coupled cluster theory and the self-consistent Green’s function method, have been established and provide accurate description of nuclear properties. The ab initio approaches are more fundamental, although in many cases empirical interactions still are used as benchmarks. The ab initio calculations can be used not only for spherical nuclei, but a

Nuclei in the region between the doubly magic 208Pb and reflection asymmetric nuclei around A ~ 220 provide an ideal platform to understand evolution of octupole collectivity. It has been established that octupole correlation suddenly emerge at N = 129, while nuclei with N < 129 show characteristic of near spherical nucleus.

From the early days of nuclear-structure physics, the nature of the second 0+ state in $^{16}$O has been an attracting issue. This nucleus is a typical doubly magic nucleus, and its second 0+ state is interpreted as a four-particle four-hole state.

We present an overview of the seniority and generalized seniority approaches and the various experimental signatures of their validity. We also discuss how the seniority isomers arise and under what conditions. We test the validity of the seniority quantum number with increasing j and in the presence of many j-orbitals. We find that the generalized seniority quantum number retains its applicabilit

The study of various modes of excitations and the associated evolution of nuclear shapes along spin and isospin axes in
atomic nuclei is one of the fundamental quest in nuclear physics. In this regard, the neutron rich nuclei with Z~40 and N~60
have attracted considerable attention recently. While the ground states of Sr, Zr, and Mo isotopes with N ranging from the
magic number N = 50 up to N<6

Numerous experimental and theoretical studies are currently focused on studying the nuclear shell structure of nuclei far from the line of stability. In particular, the evolution of nuclear properties, for example, the reduced transition probabilities across the Z = 50 isotopic chain, has been examined in detail. Radioactive ion beams yield new experimental results close to the doubly magic 100Sn

Many doubly odd nuclei in the mass region ~130 have been studied earlier for the phenomena of signature splitting, signature inversion and Chirality e. g. 126I [1], and 128I was also a good candidate. However, being close to β-stability line, it was difficult to populate 128I via compound nuclear reaction. In our preliminary investigations, we observed a good cross section ~ 80 mb [2] of inco

The spectroscopic study of high spin states in A =70 region have been attracted considerable interest due to occurrence of various exotic phenomena like shape co-existence, shape evolution, bandcrossing, back-bending, band termination, chirality, magnetic rotation etc.[1,2]. In even-even 70Ge nucleus, the protons and neutrons occupy the same orbitals, π(g9/2) and ν(g9/2) and hence easily aligned

Nuclei around Z > 50 and N < 82 are interesting testing ground to explore the suitability and predictive powers of nuclear models at both low and high spins. Particular interest in the A ~ 130 transitional mass region is that, at low spins, the nuclei show small axial deformation whereas at higher spins, shape coexistence may occur due to the competition between the proton alignment to the prolate

The medium light nuclei situated in the nuclear chart between the double magic nuclei 40Ca and 58Ni exhibit many features characteristic for well deformed heavier nuclei. Although in this regions close to the stability line the ground states are predominantly spherical or oblate, at higher values of spin well developed rotational bands are present. This happens in particular when the intruder

Exotic nuclei (halo & hypernuclei) are highly unstable nuclear system exhibit rare phenomena which provide an extreme test for the models of nuclear structure. Objective of the present work is to calculate the binding energy and some other observables for exotic hypernuclei like 4ΣHe, 8ΞHe, 11ΞB etc. For such hypernuclei three-body Schrodinger equation for realistic potentials provides a natur

An important observation common in strip detectors is the cross-talk occurring between its different strips due to electronic coupling between them. In the present work this has been investigated for a planar HPGe strip detector, proposed to be used in the g-array for the DEcay SPECtroscopy [1] measurements at the upcoming FAIR [2] facility. The effect of cross-talk on the summed energy signal fro

The study of neutron-deficient Kr isotopes in the mass range A=70-80, which is in the transitional region [1], is quite interesting because these isotopes show different structures and particularly in $^{76}Kr$ shape co-existence near the ground state was observed [2, 3]. In present work, the multi-quasiparticle triaxial projected shell model (TPSM) approach [4-6] is employed to study the high spi

Global aspects of stellar object, such as the mass-radius elation, are determined by the equations of hydrostatic equilibrium,known as TOV(Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkov) equations. A few exact solutions are known for a realistic pressure−density relation (equation of state,EOS) .These equations must be numerically solved to obtain the M−R relation. From EOS a family of different astronomical model

Transitional nuclei in mass A~140 region are crucial laboratory to observe the interesting nuclear structure phenomena and to test variety of nuclear models.

Nuclear fission is a complex process, which – after almost 80 years since its discovery – is still not fully understood. One field of research is for instance studies of the de-excitation process of fission fragments, which in the early stages, i.e. within a few nanoseconds after scission, takes place through the successive emission of prompt neutrons and gamma rays. For nuclear applications,

The nuclei in the mid shell region of A=180-190 have moderate deformation and show rotational-like band structures built on different single particle configurations. Many of these nuclei are also known to have gamma-softness. Prior to the present study, the high spin structure of 187Os was little known although, band structures built on different configurations and band crossings were studied in t

A systematic study of the “flat” SD bands of odd-A isotopes of Pb is done by using the two parameter exponential model with pairing attenuation. The least-squares fitting procedure is employed to extract the fitting parameters of the 9 superdeformed bands of the Pb isotopes which show almost constant variation of the dynamic moment of inertia with rotational frequency.

Many nuclei near mass 130- with two nearly degenerate bands- were earlier established to have Chiral symmetry. But the electromagnetic selection rules for the inter-band and intra-band transitions provide the stringent criteria for the bands to be qualified as Chiral [1, 2]. The reduced transition probabilities, the B(E2) values follow the identical pattern for the two Chiral bands, whereas the

Neutron rich Ti isotopes are particularly interesting because they exist with two proton excess near the proton magic number 20. Since the nuclei in excited state will be hot rotating due to higher agitation of nucleons (higher internal excitation), a temperature of optimum value is included in the suitable statistical model and the excited levels are calculated. The Eγ values obtained from these

Our recently proposed generalized seniority scheme has been widely successful in explaining the reduced transition probabilities of high spin isomers and other excited states in semi-magic nuclei [1-5]. In the present paper, we use this formalism to obtain the g-factors of semi-magic nuclei, particularly for Sn and Pb isotopes. We find that the magnetic moment and the g-factor values do show a par
