Nucleon-nucleon correlations inside atomic nuclei: synergies, observations and theoretical models
Ranjeet Dalal,
I J Douglas MacGregor
Abstract:While the main features of atomic nuclei are well described by nuclear mean-field models, there is a large and growing body of evidence which indicates an important additional role played by spatially-correlated nucleon-nucleon structures. The role of nucleonic structures was first suggested by Heidmann in 1950 to explain the pick-up reactions of energetic nucleons. Since then, a steady flux of new experimental evidence has confirmed the presence of similar structures inside atomic nuclei, dominated by correla… Show more
