Continuing influence of shell effects at high-excitation energies

Empirical drops in ground-state nuclear polarizabilities indicate deviations from the effect of giant dipole resonances and may reveal the presence of shell effects in semi-magic nuclei with neutron magic numbers N=50, 82 and 126. Similar drops of polarizability in the quasi-continuum of nuclei with...
