  2. Nuclear shell model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_shell_model

    A model derived from the nuclear shell model is the alpha particle model developed by Henry Margenau, Edward Teller, J. K. Pering, T. H. Skyrme, also sometimes called the Skyrme model. [ 8 ] [ 9 ] Note, however, that the Skyrme model is usually taken to be a model of the nucleon itself, as a "cloud" of mesons (pions), rather than as a model of ...

  3. Nilsson model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nilsson_model

    The Nilsson model is a nuclear shell model treating the atomic nucleus as a deformed sphere. In 1953, the first experimental examples were found of rotational bands in nuclei, with their energy levels following the same J(J+1) pattern of energies as in rotating molecules.

  4. Woods–Saxon potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woods–Saxon_potential

    Woods–Saxon potential for A = 50, relative to V 0 with a = 0.5 fm and =. The Woods–Saxon potential is a mean field potential for the nucleons (protons and neutrons) inside the atomic nucleus, which is used to describe approximately the forces applied on each nucleon, in the nuclear shell model for the structure of the nucleus.

  5. Shell model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shell_model

    Shell model can mean: Nuclear shell model , how protons and neutrons are arranged in an atom nucleus Electron shell , how electrons are arranged in an atom or molecule

  6. Nuclear fission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_fission

    Maria Goeppert Mayer later proposed the nuclear shell model for the nucleus. The nuclides that can sustain a fission chain reaction are suitable for use as nuclear fuels . The most common nuclear fuels are 235 U (the isotope of uranium with mass number 235 and of use in nuclear reactors) and 239 Pu (the isotope of plutonium with mass number 239).

  7. Magic number (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_number_(physics)

    In the shell model for the nucleus, magic numbers are the numbers of nucleons at which a shell is filled. For instance, the magic number 8 occurs when the 1s 1/2 , 1p 3/2 , 1p 1/2 energy levels are filled, as there is a large energy gap between the 1p 1/2 and the next highest 1d 5/2 energy levels.

  9. Internal conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_conversion

    However, the s states in the L, M, and N shells (i.e., the 2s, 3s, and 4s states) are also able to couple to the nuclear fields and cause IC electron ejections from those shells (called L or M or N internal conversion). Ratios of K-shell to other L, M, or N shell internal conversion probabilities for various nuclides have been prepared. [3]
