Is there a formula for determining the total spin of a nucleus?
I know protons and neutrons have 1/2 spin and I know even number A nuclei have 0 spin.
But I don’t know how the spin is determined for values larger than 1/2.
For example:
55Fe spin 3/2
56Co spin 4
57Co spin 7/2
60Co spin 5
I didn’t find anything in the PF library.
Other book reference in Inter-Library queue.
Any online reference would be helpful.
