Funded Activity Summary

Moments, monopoles and the emergence of nuclear collectivity. The project aims to elucidate the origin and nature of collective nuclear vibrations. Recent evidence that vibrational nuclei might not vibrate after all has shaken the foundations of nuclear theory. This project will measure electric monopole transitions and magnetic moments to help determine these nuclei’s true nature, and expose how their collectivity emerges from the complexity of the underlying single-particle motion. The expected outcome is a deeper understanding of emergent phenomena in quantum many-body systems like the atomic nucleus.
