Effective interaction for pf-shell nuclei
An effective interaction is derived for use in the full pf basis. Starting
from a realistic G-matrix interaction, 195 two-body matrix elements and 4
single-particle energies are determined by fitting to 699 energy data in the
mass range 47 to 66. The derived interaction successfully describes various
structures of pf-shell nuclei. As examples, systematics of the energies of the
first 2+ states in the Ca, Ti, Cr, Fe, and Ni isotope chains and energy levels
of 56,57,58Ni are presented. The appearance of a new magic number 34 is seen.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures, to be published in Phys. Rev.
