TL;DR
This paper demonstrates that in the proxy-SU(3) scheme, the wave functions of normal parity orbitals in heavy nuclei are minimally affected by replacing abnormal parity orbitals with their proxy counterparts, simplifying nuclear structure modeling.
Contribution
It introduces and validates the proxy-SU(3) scheme as a way to approximate wave functions in heavy nuclei with minimal distortion.
Findings
Wave functions of normal parity orbitals are minimally affected by the proxy substitution.
The proxy-SU(3) scheme simplifies the treatment of heavy nuclei.
Minimal impact on wave functions supports the scheme's validity.
Abstract
We show that within the proxy-SU(3) scheme the wave functions of the normal parity orbitals in a given nuclear shell are affected very little as a result of the replacement of the abnormal parity orbitals by their 0[110] proxy-SU(3) counterparts.
