    Title : Triplet-even channel attraction for single-particle energies

    Abstract :
    One of the most striking features in neutron-rich nuclei is the disappearance
    of magic number N = 8 or 20, which indicates a change of single-particle
    energy spectra and the disappearance of a large energy gap at the magic
    number. A sum-rule method is formulated, based on the shell model, for the
    evaluation of single-particle energies. It is shown that the triplet-even central
    component of the NN interaction plays a decisive role through the monopole
    interaction for a change of single-particle energy spectra, leading to a rapid
    decrease of the energy gap at N = 8 and 20. The triplet-even attraction is due
    partly to the original central interaction and partly to the second-order tensor
    correlations of the one-pion exchange potential. A multipole expansion analysis
    of NN interactions shows that the contribution to the single-particle energy
    from the monopole interactions between two orbits depends on the nodal
    quantum numbers of the orbits.
