For neutron-proton coherent DW (spin-isospin saturated Z=N nuclei) Correlation energy overcomes 1p-1h excitation energy cost SSB condition For neutron-proton incoherent (ex. N>Z nuclei) SSB condition Less corrlation energy Proton DW in neutron-rich nuclei: Since protons are deeply bound, energy cost for 1p-1h Increases. As a result, DW is further suppressed at least in ground states.
Cluster structures in 28Si (and 12C) • K=0+ and K=5- bands suggest a pentagon shape because of 7alpha clusters. • The clusterization can be interpreted as • DW on the edge of an oblate state, .i.e., SSB of oblate state. • 1p-1h correlation of DW in Z=N nuclei is equivalent to • 1p-3p (alpha) correlation. • n-p coherence is important in DW-type SSB. • Future: • Other-type of cluster understood by DW. • Ex) Tetrahedron 4 alpha cluster : Y32-type DW.
