TL;DR
This paper introduces a new proxy-SU(3) model that predicts the dominance of prolate shapes in deformed nuclei and locates the shape transition point, aligning well with empirical data.
Contribution
The paper presents a novel approximate analytic proxy-SU(3) scheme that predicts nuclear shape features without adjustable parameters.
Findings
Prolate dominance in deformed nuclei is confirmed.
The shape transition locus is accurately predicted.
Model aligns well with empirical nuclear data.
Abstract
Using a new approximate analytic parameter-free proxy-SU(3) scheme, we make simple predictions for the global feature of prolate dominance in deformed nuclei and the locus of the prolate-oblate shape transition and compare these with empirical data.
