Nuclear structure at high spins - the role of shape symmetries

Aberg, Sven LU (1988) In Nuclear Physics, Section A 488(C). p.147-162
Abstract

Some recent advances in high-spin physics are reviewed emphasising the role of symmetries in rotating nuclei. Evidence is presented for breaking of the axial symmetry (triaxiality) as well as of the reflection symmetry (octupole deformation). Spectroscopic consequences of shell structure in rapidly rotating nuclei with 2:1 shapes (superdeformations) are discussed.
