To test the possible usefulness of the pseudo SU(3) coupling scheme a few nuclear properties are examined which can be expected to be governed largely by the (lg$d~2d+3s+) part of the proton configuration for odd-2 nuclei and the (lh2fs2f*3p+3p+) part of the neutron configuration for odd-N nuclei. The equivalence between these configurations and pseudo oscillator shells
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
