Within a simple SO(8) algebraic model, the coexistence between isoscalar and isovector pairing modes can be successfully described using a mean-field method plus restoration of broken symmetries. In order to port this methodology to real nuclei, we need to employ realistic density functionals in the pairing channel. In this article, we present an analytical derivation of matrix elements of a separable pairing interaction in Cartesian coordinates and we correct errors of derivations available in the literature. After implementing this interaction in the code hfodd, we study evolution of pairing gaps in the chain of deformed Erbium isotopes, and we compare the results with a standard density-dependent contact pairing interaction.

An algebraic Quantum Field Theory formulation of separable pairing interaction for spherical finite systems is presented. The Lipkin formulation of the model Hamiltonian and model wave function is used. The Green function technique is applied to obtain the model energy through the spectral function. Closed equation for the many-body energy of the system is given and comparison with exact models are performed.
A systematic global investigation of pairing properties based on all available experimental data on pairing indicators has been performed for the first time in the framework of covariant density functional theory. It is based on separable pairing interaction of Ref. [1]. The optimization of the scaling factors of this interaction to experimental data clearly reveals its isospin dependence in neutron subsystem. However, the situation is less certain in proton subsystem since similar accuracy of the description of pairing indicators can be achieved both with isospin-dependent and mass-dependent scaling factors. The differences in the functional dependencies of scaling factors lead to the uncertainties in the prediction of proton and neutron pairing properties which are especially pronounced at high isospin and could have a significant impact on some physical observables. For a given part of nuclear chart the scaling factors for spherical nuclei are smaller than those for deformed ones; this feature exists also in non-relativistic density functional theories. Its origin is traced back to particle-vibration coupling in odd-$A$ nuclei which is missing in all existing global studies of pairing. Although the present investigation is based on the NL5(E) covariant energy density functional (CEDF), its general conclusions are expected to be valid also for other CEDFs built at the Hartree level.
We report a study on the low-energy properties of the elastic $s-$wave scattering of a neutron ($n$) in the carbon isotope $^{19}$C near the critical condition for the occurrence of an excited Efimov state in the three-body $n-n-^{18}$C system. For the separation energy of the two halo neutrons in $^{20}$C we use the available experimental data. We also investigate to which extent the universal scaling laws, strictly valid in the zero-range limit, will survive when using finite-range interactions. By allowing to vary the $n-^{18}$C binding energy, a scaling behavior for the real and imaginary parts of the $s-$wave phase-shift $delta_0$ is verified, emerging some universal characteristics given by the pole-position of $kcot(delta_0^R)$ and effective-range parameters.
Heisenberg-type higher order symmetries are studied for both classical and quantum mechanical systems separable in cartesian coordinates. A few particular cases of this type of superintegrable systems were already considered in the literature, but here they are characterized in full generality together with their integrability properties. Some of these systems are defined only in a region of $mathbb R^n$, and in general they do not include bounded solutions. The quantum symmetries and potentials are shown to reduce to their superintegrable classical analogs in the $hbar to0$ limit.
Background: Following the 2007 precise measurements of monopole strengths in tin isotopes, there has been a continuous theoretical effort to obtain a precise description of the experimental results. Up to now, there is no satisfactory explanation of why the tin nuclei appear to be significantly softer than 208Pb. Purpose: We determine the influence of finite-range and separable pairing interactions on monopole strength functions in semi-magic nuclei. Methods: We employ self-consistently the Quasiparticle Random Phase Approximation on top of spherical Hartree-Fock-Bogolyubov solutions. We use the Arnoldi method to solve the linear-response problem with pairing. Results: We found that the difference between centroids of Giant Monopole Resonances measured in lead and tin (about 1 MeV) always turns out to be overestimated by about 100%. We also found that the volume incompressibility, obtained by adjusting the liquid-drop expression to microscopic results, is significantly larger than the infinite-matter incompressibility. Conclusions: The zero-range and separable pairing forces cannot induce modifications of monopole strength functions in tin to match experimental data.
