Abstract

This manuscript reviews recent results of large scale shell model calculations on N=Z nuclei. The topics discussed include the role proton-neutron pairing on the binding energies of pf-shell nuclei and his influence on backbending rotors; coulomb energy differences and their relationship with alignment. Proton-neutron correlations are found responsible for the characteristic features of the isotopic shifts in calcium, the parabolic dependence on A and the prominent odd-even staggering.
