Nuclear Tetrahedral Symmetry
arXiv:nucl-th/0310033 · doi:10.1142/S0218301304001965
Abstract
We recall the main features of the Td (tetrahedral) symmetry in atomic nuclei and present realistic mean-field calculations supporting the existence such a symmetry all over the nuclear chart. A few potential candidate-nuclei are investigated and the possible experimental signatures of the tetrahedral symmetry are also briefly discussed.
