Microscopic description of even-even nuclei in the mass A = 130 region

1986

Abstract We present a systematic study of even-even nuclei in the mass A = 130 region using a microscopic nuclear structure model, in which the nuclear wave functions are approximated by linear combinations of number- and spin-projected zero-quasiparticle and two-quasipartile determinants obtained from a self-consistent Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov mean field. With a fixed hamiltonian, being a slightly renormalized Brueckner G-matrix based on the Bonn potential the model is able to reproduce the main trends of empirical energy and electromagnetic properties of the transitional, soft nuclei in the region. The empirical nature of the crossing ( πh 11 2 ) 2 and ( vh 11 2 ) 2 superbands in Ce and Ba…
