Abstract

We suggest that supergroups and superalgebras may be useful in classifying the spectra of certain even-even and even-odd nuclei. We show, in particular, that properties of many states in several nuclei, including excitation energies, electromagnetic transition rates and transfer reaction intensities, can be described by a U(6/4) supersymmetry. Our analysis provides the first evidence for the occurrence of supersymmetry in nature.
