Pairing fluctuations and gauge symmetry restoration in rotating
superfluid nuclei    [PDF]

Yoshifumi R. Shimizu

Rapidly rotating nuclei provide us good testing grounds to study the pairing correlations; in fact, the transition from the superfluid to the normal phase is realized at high-spin states. The role played by the pairing correlations is quite different in these two phases: The static (BCS like mean-field) contribution is dominant in the superfluid phase, while the dynamic fluctuations beyond the mean-field approximation are important in the normal phase. The influence of the pairing fluctuations on the high-spin rotational spectra and moments of inertia is discussed.
