Abstract. We present recent investigations on dipole and quadrupole excitations in spherical skin nuclei, particular exploring their connection to the thickness of the neutron skin. Our theoretical method relies on density functional theory, which provides us with a proper link between nuclear many-body theory of the nuclear ground state and its phenomenological description. For the calculation...

The NQR-spectrum of 127I in orthoperiodic acid, H 5 I0 6 , has been studied on powder samples in the temperature range 77 K T 398 K. The resonance frequencies vx of the transition i n ( ± 3 / 2 ) ^ m ( ± l / 2 ) are 45.248 + 0.005 MHz (77 K) and 4 4 . 9 7 6 ± 0 . 0 0 5 MHz (296 K ) . For the transition TO(±5/2) ^ I t o ( ± 3 / 2 ) the resonance frequencies v2 are 8 3 . 4 7 8 ± 0 . 0 0 5 MHz (77...

From a consideration of odd-even intramolecular electron transfer processes in octahedrally co-ordinated transition metal complexes, two relationships have been derived. The first correlation describes 71 —> y3 optical electron transfer bands of the complexes K20sC l6 , K2IrCl6 , K2PtCl6 , K2PtCl4 as a function of the respective 35C1 nuclear quadrupole coupling constants. The second rela­ tions...
