Simple models for shell-model configuration densities
Abstract
We consider the secular behavior of shell-model configuration (partial) densities. When configuration densities are characterized by their moments, one often finds large third moments (asymmetries), which make suitable parametrization of the secular behavior problematic. We review several parameterizations or models and compare to exact numerical configuration densities. We propose a modified Breit-Wigner form which provides a better secular approximation, for large asymmetries, compared to models based on Gaussian forms.

Parity-Projected Shell Model Monte Carlo Level Densities for fp-shell Nuclei
We calculate parity-dependent level densities for the even-even isotopes 58,62,66Fe and 58Ni and the odd-A nuclei 59Ni and 65Fe using the Shell Model Monte Carlo method. We perform these calculations in the complete fp-gds shell-model space using a pairing+quadrupole residual interaction. We find that, due to pairing of identical nucleons, the low-energy spectrum is dominated by positive parity states. Although these pairs break at around the same excitation energy in all nuclei, the energy dependence of the ratio of negative-to-positive parity level densities depends strongly on the particular nucleus of interest. We find equilibration of both parities at noticeably lowermore » -
