NUCLEAR COLLECTIVE MOTION AND THE SHELL MODEL
Abstract
The collective effects in connection with certain systematic deviations of nuclear properties from the single particle estimate, in particular the giant quadrupole moments, are of a more subtle type than those considered by N. Bohr and Wheeler, and are intimately connected with the independent particle aspects of nuclear structure. In the past few years, these collective effects, as for example, those associated with the giant dipole state, can be incorporated into the shell model itself in terms of an interaction between pairs of shell model particles. The advantage of such a treatment is that it makes it possible to compute, in some detail, quantitative consequences of the interplay between the collective and single particle aspects of nuclear structure.
