Abstract
We present results from large-scale shell model calculations of even and odd tin isotopes from to with a shell model space defined by the , , , , , and single-particle orbits. An effective two-body interaction based on modern nucleon-nucleon interactions is employed. The shell model results are in turn analyzed for their pairing content using a generalized seniority approach. Our results indicate that a pairing model picture captures a great deal of the structure and the correlations of the lowest lying states for even and odd isotopes.
