proton
neutron

• Exciting the atomic nuclei and then observing the gamma-ray
e.g. Coulomb excitation, inelastic scattering, etc.
• Producing nucleus at excited states and then observing the gamma-ray
e.g. Fusion/fragmentation, etc

Magic number and nuclear shell structure
Maria Mayer in 1948 published evidence
for the particular stability for the numbers
20, 50, 82 and 126. it sparked a lot of
interest in the USA and with Haxel, Jensen
and Suess in Germany.
leading to the simultaneous publication of
the papers (1949) by Mayer and the
German group on the shell model with a
strong spin-orbit coupling.

shell structure is changed by
deformation.
Jahn-Teller effect: geometrical
distortion (deformation) that
removes degeneracy can lower
the energy of system.

Central depletion factor:
Deformation has significant influence on the central depletion.
The 34Si has the largest central depletion in Si isotopes.
Spherical state:

Dynamical deformation:
No bubble structure
Inverse of 2s1/2 and 1d3/2
around 46Ar leads to bubble
structure in spherical state.
