Final report

  
Results in Hungarian
Új vonásait tártuk fel a magfizikai SU(3) szimmetriának: a spontán és duális sérülését, valamint a szimmetriasértő (Nilsson) Hamilton-operátorból eredő megjelenését. Kiterjesztettük alkalmazhatóságát a deformációs tengely mentén (stabil kvázidinamikai szimmetria, mint az alakizoméria jele), valamint nehéz magokra (pszeudo- és proxy-SU(3) kvartettek). Megmutattuk, hogy az alapvető magmodellek közös metszete az U(3)xU(3) többkonfigurációs dinamikai szimmetria (MUSY). Ez egységesen képes leírni a spektrumok különböző szegmenseit, ezért komoly előrejelzésekre képes. Néhány esetben jóslatait már igazolták a kísérletek. Leírtuk a MUSY logikai és matematikai szerkezetét, és összehasonlítottuk a szupeszimmetriáéval. Egyéb szimmetriákra vonatkozóan: Kísérleti bizonyítékot találtunk a spin-izospin pseudo-SU(4) szimmetriára. Kutatást indítottunk a szimmetriák és az összefonódottság viszonyának felderítésére. Potenciálproblémákat tanulmányoztunk, mind magfizikai (fázisátmenetek), mind általános kvantummechanikai (PT-invariancia) indíttatásból. Megmutattuk, hogy azok a tér-idő transzformációk, melyeket a Kepler-probléma O(4,2) dinamikai csoportja sugall leírják az exobolygó-rendszerek pályáit; és belőlük következik az (általánosított) Titius-Bode-szabály, melyet eddig empirikusnak tekintettünk.
Results in English
We have found new features of the nuclear SU(3) symmetry: spontaneous and dual breaking, its emergence from non-symmetric (Nilsson) Hamiltonian. We have extended its applicability along the deformation (stable quasidynamical symmetry, as signature of shape isomers) and to heavy nuclei (pseudo and proxy SU(3) quartets). We showed that the common intersection of the fundamental nuclear models for the many major-shell problem is an U(3)xU(3) symmetry, called multiconfigurational dynamical symmetry (MUSY), which can describe different segments of the spectra in a unified way, therefore, it has a considerable predictive power. In some cases its predictions have been justified by experiments. We have revealed the logical and mathematical background of MUSY, and compared it to those of the supersymmetry. Concerning other symmetries: We found experimental evidence for the validity of the pseudo-SU(4) spin-isospin symmetry. We initiated investigations to uncover the relation between symmetries and entanglement. We studied potential problems, both in nuclear physics, related to phase transitions, as well as in general quantum mechanics, with special attention on the PT invariance. We have shown that the space-time transformations inspired by the O(4,2) dynamical group of the Kepler problem reproduce the orbital regularity of the exo-planetary systems; and the empirical (generalized) Titius-Bode rule can be obtained from them.
