Spontaneous breaking of isospin symmetry Mean field does not have these symmetries. Degenerate mf-solutions: gauge angle
Symmetry restoration –Isorotations (strong symmetry breaking) Bayman, Bes, Broglia PRL 23 (1969) 1299 ( 2 particle transfer)
The relative strengths of pp, nn, and pn pairing are determined by the isospin symmetry Moment of inertia for isorotation

Parities of proton and neutron numbers are good. Intrinsic excitation spectrum Symmetries
States with good N, Z –parity are in general no eigenstates of If they are (T=0) the symmetry restricts the possible configurations, if not (T=1/2) the symmetry does not lead to anything new. Restrictions due to the
