Odd-Odd Nuclei -

…This shell effect is known to be important not only in contributing to the binding energy, but also in producing the deformation of atomic nuclei with Z and N that are outside the magic numbers. On the other hand, by comparing the binding energies of adjacent atomic nuclei where Z or N differs by one, it is known that even-even nuclei, where Z and N are both even, are the most stable, odd nuclei (even-odd or odd-even nuclei) where one of them is odd are intermediate, and odd-odd nuclei where both are odd are the most unstable. This is thought to be because a pairing force similar to that of the electron pairs (Cooper pairs) in superconductors acts on the proton and neutron pairs in atomic nuclei. …

Japanese:

…この殻効果は結合エネルギーへの寄与と同時に,魔法数からはずれたZ,Nをもつ原子核の変形を生みだすうえでも重要であることが知られている。 一方,ZまたはNが1異なるような隣り合う原子核の結合エネルギーを比較することにより,Z,Nがともに偶数であるような偶‐偶核はもっとも安定で,どちらかが奇数である奇数核(偶‐奇あるいは奇‐偶核)が中間,ともに奇数である奇‐奇核はもっとも不安定であることがわかっている。これは原子核内の陽子対および中性子対に,超伝導体中の電子対(クーパー対)と似た対相関力が働くためと考えられている。…
