L.Zamick
TL;DR
This paper investigates the effect of Coulomb interactions on the wave functions of odd angular momentum states in even-even nuclei, using an approximation for Coulomb matrix elements within a single j shell.
Contribution
It introduces an approximation method for Coulomb matrix elements and analyzes its impact on odd J state wave functions in nuclei.
Findings
Wave functions of odd J states are not significantly affected by Coulomb interactions.
The approximation simplifies calculations of Coulomb effects in nuclear models.
Coulomb effects are minimal for certain nuclear configurations.
Abstract
With a certain approximation for the Coulomb matrix elements in a single j shell of protons and neutrons it is found that wave functions of states of odd angular momentum J in an even-even nucleus are not strongly affected by their presence,
