Isospin symmetry breaking in nuclear ground state

Tomoya Naito


It is known that the nuclear interaction is much stronger than the Coulomb interaction; thus, the main contribution to the nuclear properties comes from the nuclear interaction. Nevertheless, the contribution from the Coulomb interaction to the properties is also important, since the Coulomb interaction and the isospin symmetry breaking terms of the nuclear interaction are entangled with each other in some particular nuclear properties. Although the isospin symmetry breaking of the nuclear interaction has been known for decades, thanks to the recent progress on precise measurements of nuclear properties, it becomes highlighted theoretically and experimentally again.

In this seminar, I will show our recent fundamental studies on these two contributions to ground-state properties of atomic nuclei.
