Title: A region of high-spin toroidal isomers

Journal Article · · Physics Letters B

The combined considerations of both the bulk liquid-drop-type behavior and the quantized angular momentum reveal that high-spin toroidal isomeric states may have general occurrences for light nuclei with 28 ≤ A ≤ 52. High-spin N=Z toroidal isomers in this mass region have been located theoretically using cranked self-consistent constraint Skyrme–Hartree–Fock model calculations.
