$^{229m}$Th isomer from a nuclear model perspective

Nikolay Minkov,
Adriana Pálffy

Abstract: The physical conditions for the emergence of the extremely low-lying nuclear isomer 229m Th at approximately 8 eV are investigated in the framework of our recently proposed nuclear structure model. Our theoretical approach explains the 229m Th-isomer phenomenon as the result of a very fine interplay between collective quadrupole-octupole and single-particle dynamics in the nucleus. We find that the isomeric state can only appear in a rather limited model space of quadrupole-octupole deformations in the single-… Show more
