RT Journal Article T1 Partial dynamical symmetry as a selection criterion for many-body interactions A1 Leviatan, A. A1 García Ramos, José Enrique A1 Van Isacker, P. AB We propose the use of partial dynamical symmetry (PDS) as a selection criterion for higher-order terms insituations when a prescribed symmetry is obeyed by some states and is strongly broken in others. The procedureis demonstrated in a first systematic classification of many-body interactions with SU(3) PDS that can improvethe description of deformed nuclei. As an example, the triaxial features of the nucleus 156Gd are analyzed.
