g-Factors and the Interplay of Collective and Single-Particle Degrees of Freedom in Superdeformed Mass-190 Nuclei
Interplay of collective and single-particle degrees of freedom is a common
phenomenon in strongly correlated many-body systems. Despite many successful
efforts in the study of superdeformed nuclei, there is still unexplored physics
that can be best understood only through the nuclear magnetic properties. We
point out that study of the gyromagnetic factor (g-factor) may open a unique
opportunity for understanding superdeformed structure. Our calculations suggest
that investigation of the g-factor dependence on spin and particle number can
provide important information on single-particle structure and its interplay
with collective motion in the superdeformed mass-190 nuclei. Modern
experimental techniques combined with the new generation of sensitive detectors
should be capable of testing our predictions.Comment: 4 pages, 2 eps figures, accepted by Phys. Rev.
