Abstract

In the study of nuclear structure, several physical models of nuclear behavior have been developed. The shell model, based on independent particle motion in an average nuclear field, is successful in explaining many aspects of nuclear phenomena, such as regularities in parities, and nuclear ground state spins, and the unusual stability of closed shell nuclei.
