1203.5529 (G. F. Bertsch)

Nuclear pairing: basic phenomena revisited    [PDF]

G. F. Bertsch
I review the phenomena associated with pairing in nuclear physics, most prominently the ubiquitous presence of odd-even mass differences and the properties of the excitation spectra, very different for even-even and odd-A nuclei. There are also significant dynamical effects of pairing, visible in the inertias associated with nuclear rotation and large-amplitude shape deformation.
