before i start i wanted to make it clear that this is NOT homework. its just a quick question which puzzled me and my friend
In the shell model of the nucleus. i found a statement that said that since both neutrons and protons are fermions, there are restricted to 2 of each at each energy level.
but when reading something else, it said there could only be 2 at each energy level (not 2 of each)
so could someone please tell me the correct answer, are there 2 protons and 2 neutrons per shell (making 4), or just a total of 2.
thanks :)
