Extended interacting boson model description of Pd nuclei in the A∼100 transitional region

Abstract

Abstract.Studies of even-even nuclei in the A∼100 transitional mass region within the framework of the interacting boson model-1 (IBM-1) have been expanded down to 98 Pd nuclei to compare the calculation with new experimental results from measurements obtained at the Institute of Nuclear Physics in Cologne. The low-lying energy levels and the E2 transition rates of 98−100 Pd nuclei are investigated and their geometric structures are described in the present work. We have also focused on the new B(E2:2 + 1 → 0 + 1 ) values of 112,114 Pd nuclei to compare with previously calculated values.
