Full 0ħω shell model calculation of the binding energies of the1f7/2nuclei

Abstract

Binding energies and other global properties of nuclei in the middle of the $\mathrm{pf}$ shell, such as $M1,E2,$ and Gamow-Teller sum rules, have been obtained using a new shell model code (NATHAN) written in quasispin formalism and using a $j-j$-coupled basis. An extensive comparison is made with the recently available shell model Monte Carlo results using the effective interaction KB3. The binding energies for nearly all the ${1f}_{7/2}$ nuclei are compared with the measured (and extrapolated) results.
