Abstract

In order to extend the conventional shell model (SM) calculation with harmonic oscillator bases to light nuclei on neutron drip line, a self-similar-structure shell model (SSM) is proposed. We do this by a rescaling of both the kinetic and potential energy terms of the harmonic oscillator so that the single-particle orbit in SSM has its own state(orbit)-dependent frequency. Meanwhile, a new method to imitate the Woods–Saxon potential with harmonic oscillator potential is introduced. By the rescaling method and imitation procedure, all light exotic nuclei together with the light stable nuclei are studied in a unified way. The results are in good agreement with experimental data. Furthermore, the puzzle of the unexistence of and is naturally explained in SSM.
